The living spaces
Two reception rooms pair heritage and harmony – one centred around a wood-burning stove, the other inviting easy conversation. Heavy wooden beams line the ceilings and rustic stone hearths radiate warmth. The dining room lends itself to long lunches or evening gatherings, while a study, with floor-to-ceiling bookcases and an impressive built-in desk offers quiet focus with garden views.
Kitchen and dining
To the far end of the home, the kitchen captures a contemporary country aesthetic. Beneath a vaulted ceiling punctuated by skylights, shaker-style cabinetry meets a cream Aga and zellige-tiled splashback. Beyond, the space opens to an open-plan reception room: a dining table and custom-built bar cabinet sit primed for hosting. Alongside, sofas create a comfortable snug, where steel-framed glazing opens to the terrace and gardens beyond.
