Of particular note is the drawing room, centred on an attractive open fireplace and French doors opening onto the patio with views over the garden and pond beyond. The traditional country kitchen with walk in pantry, utility room and boot room is an essential part of this home, whilst a further dining hall with 'his and her' studies positioned at either end, and a sitting room complete the ground floor.
