There is a very useful original butler’s pantry, accessed from the dining room, which is ideally located providing access through to the contemporary breakfast kitchen and the delightful sunroom.

The well-appointed breakfast kitchen has been sympathetically extended to create the perfect space for family to come together to cook, dine and entertain, with a more casual dining area and double doors leading out to the rear garden terraces. This contemporary kitchen is beautifully presented with Farrow & Ball “Skimming Stone” to the walls that perfectly complements the extensive range of elegant “Shaded White” wall and floor mounted cabinets and contrasting granite countertops. Integrated appliances and equipment include: a Smeg range gas cooker with double ovens, six burners, a stainless-steel splash back and an extractor above; a Hotpoint dishwasher and an inset stainless steel round sink and drainer.
