The property itself is a substantial semi detached traditional villa with an impressive footprint of approximately 364 square metres (excluding balconies and terraces) arranged over three principal floors together with a useful basement level. From the front, stone steps rise to an entrance porch which opens into a welcoming reception hall and central hallway. To the right lies a characterful living room, ideal as a snug guest lounge, while to the left a generous bay fronted dining room comfortably accommodates breakfast and evening service. The hall continues through to a large, well appointed kitchen at the rear, offering extensive work surfaces and storage, and flowing into a practical rear hallway with access to a utility area and service entrance. Beyond the kitchen a bright sun room overlooks the gardens.

Also on the ground floor, a modern rear extension provides three excellent en suite letting bedrooms, all accessed from a dedicated guest hallway giving level access accommodation. The back corridor also houses the laundry room with washing machines and linen cupboard. From the main hall, stairs lead down to a generous basement store which houses the boiler and general storage, keeping the upper floors uncluttered and efficient in operation. A wide, turned staircase rises from the main hall to the first floor landing, where there are three generous ensuite letting rooms and a further ensuite single bedroom, offering comfortable accommodation for couples, families and longer stay guests. On the top floor, a landing gives access to a twin en suite letting bedroom together with an additional ensuite bedroom currently utilised as owners’ accommodation, allowing on site proprietors a degree of privacy whilst remaining close to guests. The overall layout is highly practical for an owner operated business, with clear separation between trading and private areas and obvious potential to adjust the balance of owner and guest accommodation if desired.
