The entrance hall has original flagstone flooring and one of the three staircases and gives access to a shower room, a family room overlooking the village green and a dining room which leads to an inner hall with flagstone flooring, a further staircase, and a door to the snug/breakfast room and adjoining kitchen. The dual aspect sitting room has an inglenook fireplace with a woodburning stove. The ground floor also has an over 22 ft. laundry room with doors to the garden. On the first floor the principal bedroom suite has views across the rear garden, exposed beams, a lobby, a dressing room, an en suite shower room and a bedroom with a vaulted ceiling. One of the other bedrooms is currently used as a study.
