Upon entering through a wooden front door, you will find a welcoming entrance hall that leads into a cozy sitting room featuring an inglenook fireplace, complete with a wood-burning stove. The room is filled with character, showcasing flagstone flooring and built-in cupboards flanking the fireplace.

This space also includes exposed stone walls and ceiling timbers, contributing to its charm. A staircase ascends to a mezzanine study area characterized by vaulted ceilings and exposed rafters, offering potential for further transformation.
