Once inside, the entrance hall provides access to the first-floor accommodation, whilst to the right-hand side sits the principal reception room, the living room. Generous in proportion, it offers excellent versatility for furniture placement and is centred around a striking wood burning stove set into a chimney recess, complemented by wide-board wooden flooring.
