The truly stunning reception hall is filled with natural light from the large sash windows overlooking the town. This magnificent space sets the tone for everything that follows. Limestone-flagged flooring, beautifully restored period features and the striking contemporary glass balustrade staircase create a wonderful first impression while providing access to the upper floors and the impressive cellar level below.

At the heart of the home, combining timeless character with modern practicality, the impressive kitchen/dining and living room is undoubtedly one of the standout rooms in the property.
