The bedrooms have pretty views across the Pangbourne rooftops with large traditional sash windows giving lots of light.

The single bedroom 4 could easily make an excellent en-suite bathroom to the master bedroom. There is also a large well fitted family bathroom.

One of these bedrooms has a door giving access to another pretty room once a single bedroom, now used as a store room with lots of beams to walls and ceiling which might be easily converted to an en-suite bathroom to bedroom 6.

The inner hall has the original red quarry tiles and leads to the right into the dining room with a walk through access into the drawing room with large open log fire.
The kitchen/breakfast room is a spacious light area with natural oak polished oak flooring, extensive range of pale green painted cupboard and drawer units with a modern gas fired two oven Aga.
