A staircase from the hall descends to the refurbished lower ground floor, where a fantastic open-plan kitchen/dining room forms the heart of the home. The space is enhanced by striking exposed brick pillars and a sleek modern kitchen, complete with Belfast sink, quartz worktops, electric range oven, extractor fan and an integrated dishwasher. The kitchen also provides direct access to the garden, ideal for entertaining and everyday living. The lower ground floor further benefits from a walk in pantry cupboard, guest WC, and a generous utility room with access to both the front and rear of the property.
Returning to the main hall, stairs rise to the first floor, which hosts three well proportioned bedrooms, all featuring beautiful cast iron fireplaces, with one also benefitting from a fitted wardrobe. Serving this floor is a sumptuous family bathroom, stylishly appointed with a roll top bath and an enclosed shower with rainfall head.
From the first floor landing, stairs continue to the top floor, where the impressive principal bedroom suite is located. This characterful space features a beamed ceiling, cast iron fireplace, and a private en suite shower room, creating a peaceful retreat within the home.
