The front door leads to a central reception hall connecting the drawing room with a large bay window, stone fireplace and polished wooden floor. Beyond is a sitting room with bay windows overlooking the gardens to the south. There is an open fireplace, marble surround and mantelpiece and a polished parquet floor. The dining room is extremely light with wide bay windows and French doors that open out to the garden, an attractive cast iron fireplace with slate surround and mantelpiece.
