A sitting room provides a second relaxed setting for downtime with its open fireplace set into Carrara marble, fitted walnut cabinetry and feature bay window. The impressive kitchen/breakfast room is filled with natural light courtesy of a wall of glazed bifolding doors which offer a seamless connection to the garden terrace, extending the inside to the outside environment. Fitted with modern cabinetry, and waterfall granite work surfaces, the kitchen features a large island unit with breakfast bar which creates a subtle divide to a dining zone with smart fitted bench seating.

onto a swathe of gravelled driveway providing
parking for numerous vehicles. Timber double gates to the side give access to the rear garden,
which features a decked platform adjoining the back of the house with a step down linking to an expanse of paving for outdoor dining and relaxation. A sinuous pathway provides a journey through the lawned garden to a circular wild-flower meadow with paved centre and with apple tree. Beyond there are timber raised beds ideal for fruit and vegetable cultivation. There is plenty of space for children to explore and play in this outdoor sanctuary.
