The modern architect designed bathrooms, wet room and cloakrooms have high quality fixtures and fittings.
The light and airy, dual aspect first floor living room was once part of the original malthouse. Its vaulted ceiling affords views to the working cowl above. It has the original timber trusses and retains many of the original hop- making features. The room also has a cosy woodburning stove.
A further feature of the living room is the galleried library with its generous shelving units providing an extensive area for books.
The mezzanine cloakroom and the upper floor of the oast is accessed from the living room.
The spacious kitchen / dining / family room leads directly onto the secluded courtyard garden. The large double aspect kitchen, the ideal setting for dinner parties with its high ceiling, feature lighting and timber flooring, leads directly onto the pretty courtyard garden.
Situated on the ground floor is an office / small business space complete with conference area. With separate entrance and parking it provides the option for running a business from home. However, should this not be required this can easily be returned to bedroom / study space, the plans for which can be viewed at the property.
Outside

A large garage and workshop complete with power and lighting is directly accessible from the garden and Moat Sole.
