The ground floor includes a large entrance hall, an impressive 30-foot dining room, a 26-foot sitting room, a garden room, a contemporary German-designed kitchen with premium appliances, a separate utility room and a WC.

It includes an entrance vestibule and hallway, a spacious kitchen with high-spec German-made units and a double Aga, a separate utility room and a WC.
