The social hub of the house is the kitchen/diner, where a sleek kitchen provides all the equipment needed to cater for a large group. Spend memorable evenings here, dining together around the table and enjoying the views of the leafy garden. In summer, throw open the patio doors to the covered seating area, for indoor/outdoor living. There are two gorgeous bedrooms on the ground floor, one of which has an en-suite shower room. Completing this floor is a shower room and utility room.

The two remaining bedrooms are upstairs and benefit from their own en-suite facilities. Finally, rounding off this stunning abode is a stylish study area for catching up on emails or spending a quiet moment with a coffee and a good book.

The property has a magnificent private garden with a covered seating area for outdoor entertaining, as well as a bubbling hot tub under the stars.
