A generous formal lounge fronts the floorplan under soaring 3M ceilings with ornate plasterwork that is duplicated in the formal dining room as is the ?back to back' hearths with gas fire heaters presently fitted.

A central bathroom is aided by a second WC set closer to Bedroom 3 at the rear of the home and the functional kitchen sits adjacent a casual meals area and Study. Stepping through to sunroom reveals laundry access as well as outdoor entertaining/patio area.
