This communal space is filled with character, with a large window above the kitchen allowing natural light to flood in. The living room has a large sofa, a television, and overflowing bookshelves, making for a snug space in both summer and winter. The dining table sits at the centre of the space and is great for big group meals, whilst the fully equipped, the modern kitchen becomes a hub for activity, with a breakfast bar, wine rack and plenty of space for everyone to gather around.
