The vaulted inner hallway is currently used as an art studio. Externally, the property benefits from a generous driveway, double carport and enclosed front gardens, while the substantial rear garden enjoys a large terrace and decked entertaining area, formal lawn and productive kitchen garden, creating an exceptional outdoor setting.
