The home contains no less than eight rooms on the ground floor and a two storey reception hall with galleried landing and imposing oak staircase. A superb kitchen with vaulted ceiling located within the original gun room and a large games/snooker room with double glazed vaulted atrium. Extensive accommodation over the first and second floors only part of which is being used at the present time.
