The sitting room offers plenty of space for comfortable seating and features a contemporary inset gas fire - operated by remote control. From the sitting room double louvre doors open to a second reception room.  This room, formerly the dining room is a versatile space and could be used as a snug, playroom or second study.  From here a door opens to the kitchen and sliding patio doors open to a large conservatory. The conservatory, currently presented as both a dining room and gym, is carpeted, fully heated and benefits from French doors out to the garden.
