From the dining room, follow the organic flow of the home through into the contemporary wow-factor kitchen, where far reaching views greet you instantly to the rear of the property.

Stepping down into the kitchen, the spaciousness of the home is truly revealed.

Harmonious shades of cream and tactile wood mingle mellifluously for a kitchen in tune with the surrounding countryside, beautifully framed, and easily accessed through the bifolding doors from the family room that opens up beyond.

Savour the views
Spacious, yet zoned, the large open plan kitchen with glorious views over the large garden and fields beyond, opens up to a family area where, on winter evenings, a modern multifuel stove emanates warmth from within its Welsh slate feature wall.
