Ground Floor

Entering by the front door up 4 wide steps and you are in the hall with its original Victorian tiled floor. Ahead and to the right is the staircase to the two upper floors.

On the left a door opens into the sitting room where three sofas provide comfortable seating for 10. The floor is the original Victorian pine gently treated to reveal its natural honey tones. There is an open fireplace with a warming coal effect flame gas fire for those chilly days. The Sitting Room is well equipped for entertainment: TV, Video, DVD and music centre. There's also a selection of books and board games.

The next door along the hall is the Dining Room with a long pine table and chairs seating 10-12. There is a wood burner style electric fire to add warmth on cool evenings. A small TV, a games and toy cupboard and bookshelves make this another room for relaxing as well as for meals.

The downstairs toilet, washbasin and shower room are opposite the dining room as is the spacious hanging area for jackets, sunhats and shoes. The understairs cupboard houses the vacuum cleaner and other essentials for a quick cleanup when needed.

Finally at the end of the hall is the bright and cheery luxury kitchen with a large window looking out onto the patio area. The double oven range has gas burners, a fan oven and a regular oven (both electric). The table under the window extends to seat up to 6 if needed. The original mantelpiece and an original store cupboard have been restored. The newly built kitchen includes a range of cupboards with worktops containing crockery, cutlery, glasses, pans and utensils for 10-12 plus an additional set so there is no problem when one set is in the dishwasher.
