light switch. Open the solid wooden door with glazed window and you
enter the lovely large lounge & dining space which enjoys plenty of
natural light. Exposed wooden beams & stonework set the scene and
the original exposed stone fireplace is a wonderful feature and
makes for ideal cozy nights by the real log fire. To the right of
the fireplace is a bespoke solid piece of oak that sits above a
handmade bookcase and acts to make the perfect spot for your tv.
The dining area comfortably allows for 4-6 people and is lit by the
overhead scalloped milk glass, vintage lampshade. Tucked off the
dining area is a very useful under stairs cupboard area being the
ideal space to store coats, walking boots, etc. The dining area is
separated from the kitchen by a traditional oak planked door and in
addition there is a 'pass through' breakfast bar feature that
creates a fantastic open plan feel to the whole area. A solid piece
of beech has been hand crafted to form a unique worktop. Tv aerial
point and smoke alarm fitted.
