The main entrance leads to a L-shape storm porch/conservatory to the east elevation of the property which catches the morning sunlight and provides welcome shelter between the weather and the internal accommodation. Double doors lead through into a large kitchen breakfast room with ceramic tiled flooring and a range of base and wall mounted storage units topped in a solid oak worktop complete with a large two oven and grill range style cooker with four burner gas hob, working plate and griddle. There is also space for a free standing fridge freezer together with an integral dishwasher. There is a large built in pantry cupboard providing additional storage.
