The side extension incorporates another vast reception room measuring a massive 37ft. in length and is currently used as a second sitting room/dining room/office/games room, and because it is a double aspect room and has obvious potential for division. Upstairs there are five bedrooms in total, the master with a well appointed en-suite shower room and in addition there is a spacious family bathroom fitted with a fabulous and stylish suite.
