"The Grange is an impressive country house of classical proportions dating back to the 18th century which offers attractive accommodation and a wealth of period character, including large sash windows and impressive original fireplaces, arranged over two light filled floors. The two main reception rooms are the drawing room and the dining room, both of which are similarly proportioned, with dual aspects welcoming plenty of natural light and attractive open fireplaces. The ground floor also has a useful private study, with log burner and a home office, plus a well proportioned kitchen with a walk in pantry, farmhouse style units, a central island and an electric Aga. The utility and boot room provides further space for storage and appliances, while there is also a substantial cellar with stone flagged flooring for home storage.
