HouseThe front door opens to the entrance hall (15 sq m) with terracotta tiled floor, exposed dressed stone walls, exposed beam ceiling and a glazed door to the raised terrace to the rear of the house.

The hall then leads on to the second sitting room (about 43 sq m) with tiled floor, exposed dressed stone walls, exposed beam ceiling and two sets of patio doors. One set faces west and opens to a small balcony with fine views over the countryside and which takes full advantage of the views of the sunset. The second set of patio doors opens onto a delightful raised and decked terrace which also has fine views over the garden and the countryside beyond. This terrace is on the north side of the house and therefore provides a lovely shaded dining area during the hot and sunny summer months.
