A glazed door then opens into the south facing sitting room which has a feature stone fireplace fitted with a wood burning stove and having an attractive oak mantel. Sliding patio doors give access to the terrace and garden. Leading off from the sitting room is the dining area which also has sliding doors to the garden. To the right of the sitting room there is a door leading to the second large bedroom which has its own separate entrance and could be used by a family member, carer or staff. The utility room beyond houses the central heating and hot water boiler, washing machine, stainless steel sink, electric hob and has space for a tall fridge freezer. There is also a separate shower room with WC and hand basin. From the main hallway on the right is the kitchen day room which is fitted with a range of floor and wall mounted units and ample work surfaces incorporating twin bowl sinks, a Rayburn oil fired range cooker (which heats the hot water), electric hob, an integrated electric oven plus a two-drawer fridge and tall built-in freezer. The breakfast area has space for a table and sliding doors give access to the garden. Further down the hallway on the right hand side is the main bedroom which enjoys a beautiful view of the lake, with twin fitted wardrobes and sliding door to the lakeside garden. There is an en suite bathroom complete with bath, separate shower and fitted vanity unit housing the wash basin. There are two further bedroom as well as a shower room.

The Barn - The glazed front doors open into the large sitting/dining room which has a beautiful beamed ceiling. Leading off from here is the kitchen/breakfast room which is fitted with a modern range of floor and wall mounted units incorporating an Electrolux under oven, and Indesit ceramic hob with extractor above, fridge and freezer, resin one-and-a-half bowl sink unit with mixer taps and a dishwasher. There is a cloakroom. Beyond the sitting/dining room are two further rooms with bi-fold doors. On the first floor, there is an open Cruck ceiling and beamed roof and there is a fully fitted bathroom comprising a bath, shower enclosure, WC and wash basin. This area could be divided to provide further bedrooms. The barn is approximately 15 years old and is a substantial oak framed structure and has agricultural use but we believe that permitted development rights could be applied for to change of use to residential (see Class Q).
