Property Description
Steeped in history the Old Stables retains many charming original features. The original polished wood and iron stalls separate the current ground floor living zones into bespoke kitchen, dining and living areas.
In the dining area the original iron manger remains transformed into the perfect space to place a cooling champagne bucket close to the dining table.
The living space features a traditional log burner for cosy winter evenings, a comfy 2 seater sofa, coffee table with books and board games and a wall mounted smart TV
The kitchen is fully equipped with fresh quartz topped bespoke hand painted wooden cupboards, fridge freezer, integrated dish washer and electric oven and induction hob. There is a built in concealed laundry station with washer/dryer, iron and ironing board.
To the first floor the comfortable King Size bed is located in the mezzanine hay loft space which has original exposed stone work and sloping beamed ceilings. There is a smart t.v. in the bedroom area.
Perhaps the highlight of the upper space is the impressively spacious and stylish open beamed bathroom which has black and white Victorian style chequerboard floor tiles, a large free standing bathtub, dressing table, drawers and small wardrobe space. Opening from the bathroom into a partially separate area is a shower unit (sitting or standing) a vanity unit with sink and a w.c.
