The garage block is to be demolished and moved 45 degrees to provide two double bedrooms with en suite facilities and, at garden level, a sitting room/party room, gym and wine store area, opening onto the garden.
Within the main dwelling the existing kitchen is to be knocked through into an existing inner conservatory creating a substantial kitchen/diner.
At first floor there is to be the creation of a large double bedroom over the conservatory below, the creation of an additional fourth bedroom/dressing room and the reconfiguration of bedroom two to include an en suite shower room.
Outside there will be a new two car garage.
In addition there is scope to extend the outer conservatory further into the garden in the form of an Orangery, creating substantial sitting/dining accommodation.
Outside: the gardens are lovely and mature with a large terrace to the rear of the house leading down to a large lawn and further stone terrace and then to a decent sized vegetable garden which has another access out to the road. There is a summer house, two good sized sheds and two greenhouses.
