The house is typical of the era in terms of size and characteristic features with floor space of around 329sq m (3,541 sq ft) and authentic architectural details such as high ceilings with decorative coving and centre roses, sash windows with folding shutters, imposing marble fireplaces and a period bathroom complete with cast-iron bath.

All five bedrooms also retain original fireplaces and wooden shutters on the windows.

To the rear of the main house there is a single-storey cottage of 79sq m (849sq ft) in need of total refurbishment but offering the opportunity to extend the kitchen and living space, if desired. Also to the rear is a double garage, while a real feature of the property is the walled, south westerly garden mainly in lawn, and bordered by mature trees and shrubs.

Accommodation at ground floor briefly comprises the entrance hall, dining room with French door to courtyard, kitchen with panelled timber ceiling, granite flagstone floor and beech units, pantry with Belfast sink and utility room.

Located on the first floor, the main reception room interconnects to a second room via original folding doors.

Also on this floor is bedroom one, the main period bathroom and a separate WC.

The master bedroom, with separate dressing room, the remaining three bedrooms and a shower room are on the second floor.
