The annexe
The ground floor annexe is reached via the main hall and contains a well-appointed kitchen / breakfast room, a sitting room, double bedroom, bathroom, cloakroom and utility room. The annexe also has its own front door and can therefore be used as an entirely independent unit. Conversely, with the appropriate permissions, one could rearrange the space internally to give more accommodation on the ground floor of the main house.
