The Accommodation

This charming ground floor masterfully blends historic character with contemporary flair, centered around a generous sitting room defined by its wealth of timbers and a magnificent red-brick inglenook fireplace with a wood-burning stove. This cozy retreat flows seamlessly into a bright, vaulted kitchen where traditional Shaker-style cabinetry and oak worktops meet sleek subway tiling and modern appliances. A breakfast bar provides a functional bridge between the old and new, set against the backdrop of the home’s timber frame, while a skylight window to rear aspect flood the space with natural light. Tucked beyond the kitchen is an intimate dining nook with French doors opening to the garden, alongside a high-specification shower room featuring large-format stone tiling and a crisp, modern finish.

Stairs lead to the first floor which is a stunning, expansive principal bedroom that serves as a private sanctuary under a dramatic vaulted ceiling. The space is masterfully framed by an intricate display of original exposed timber studwork and heavy ceiling beams, which are beautifully complemented by a prominent exposed red-brick chimney breast that adds both warmth and architectural interest. 

Paddle stairs lead to the lower ground floor has been thoughtfully converted into a cozy, self-contained bedroom suite featuring excellent ceiling height, warm wood flooring throughout and a charming window seat is nestled beneath a natural light source.
