The large utility room is fitted with wall & floor units including sink and it is plumbed for a washing machine & dryer. The 3rd reception room is also off this back hall but could easily be accessed via a new door opening from the entrance hall and, indeed, it could also be used a ground floor bedroom.  This bay windowed room has a solid fuel stove with brick built-surround.

The grounds of Stonefield are truly wonderful.

To the rear, the paved garden terrace is ideal for family entertainment. A sheltered patio to the front is just perfect for a morning coffee or winding down with a chilled glass of wine when the sun is shining on Stonefield.
