The entrance porch leads on in to the spacious and welcoming entrance hallway with a beautiful oak staircase that is a real feature of the house, high ceilings, original stripped flooring, leaded stained glass windows and downstairs cloakroom fitted with a period high level w/c which all combine to set the tone of what is still to come.
