Stairs lead to a half landing where access is provided to a rear hallway and further rooms to include a versatile study/snug which enjoys dual-aspect windows, exposed stonework and fitted storage and, thanks to its position adjacent to a second bathroom, could equally be used as a fifth bedroom or guest suite. The bathroom is fitted with a three piece suite, with low level WC, pedestal wash hand basin and panel bath.
