A staircase from this level returns to the ground floor accommodation.
Externally, double gates open onto a gravel driveway which wraps around the property and leads to the garage. The surrounding gardens have been thoughtfully landscaped, with steps rising to a lawned area adjoining the roof terrace, while a gently sloping lawn and steps descend to the stone terrace and pool area, offering excellent spaces for outdoor entertaining and family enjoyment.
