The fourth bedroom is part of the extension, and is such a fabulous size. With dual aspect windows, this room is light and generously sized indeed, with huge amount of space for a large bed and ample bedroom furniture.

The house bathroom has a Victorian design style, with steps down into the room and is such a fantastic size.
