A second reception at the rear is currently used as a downstairs bedroom due to its proximity to the bathroom WC, there is also a useful study room. To the other side is a country kitchen with a Belfast sink and original Victorian dresser, a doorway leads to the utility room which has two useful larder/store cupboards. Upstairs are four bedrooms, two of which are en suite, with a period style family bathroom.
