At the heart of the original farmhouse is the inviting living room, centred around a striking feature fireplace with a multi-fuel stove, creating a warm and comfortable space throughout the year. The adjoining dining room offers an excellent setting for family meals and entertaining while maintaining an easy connection to the principal living areas.
The generous kitchen provides extensive storage and preparation space together with room for informal dining.
