With substantial family accommodation comprising five bedrooms plus a study and three bathrooms, the home is intelligently zoned, with the original part of the residence operating successfully on the short-stays market, whilst the opportunity to foster strong bonds and enrich your family unit with grandparents, parents and children thriving under one roof presents an appealing option, should you prefer to utilise the entire house.
