Today the building comprises three residences all with their own private grounds. The capacious accommodation displays many of the original features, including mouldings, fireplaces and stone mullion windows.

There is a generous study, a cosy family room and a conservatory with casement doors out to a pretty courtyard. The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a fabulous hand-made Martin Moore kitchen and a four oven AGA is very welcoming. Off the kitchen is a pantry and a useful store.



On the first floor there is a magnificent master bedroom suite with a full complement of built in wardrobes and a well-appointed shower room. There is a guest suite with en suite shower room and a further bedroom, plus family bathroom and a laundry room. The second floor would make a wonderful children’s area having two further bedrooms and a super playroom plus a cloakroom.
