Norton House

Kitchen/Dining Room

The stunning open plan kitchen/dining room provides a fabulous space to gather everyone for a sociable meal together while making sure the chef doesn’t get left out! This area joins seamlessly to a stunning patio and outside entertaining space through bi-fold doors.The contemporary handmade kitchen is beautifully finished with granite worktops and is fully equipped with top of the range appliances including; a large fridge freezer with ice dispenser, a separate wine cooling fridge, dishwasher, large oven with gas hob, a separate double oven and grill, microwave and toaster. The large centre island has an additional sink with an instant boiling hot water tap and is serviced with 4 breakfast stools.

At the opposite end of the room, the dining area is filled with natural light from the above lantern roof and the large bi-fold doors along one side of the room, which can be opened onto the patio to connect the inside and outside spaces. The handmade natural oak dining table is an attractive centrepiece that comfortably seats up to 12 guests, and the large decorative antique dresser to the side of the table houses a TV.

Reception Rooms

On the ground floor you have the choice of three beautifully decorated reception areas; a second dining room, a main lounge and finally a separate TV/chill out room.

The second dining room is more formal and can capably host a sit-down meal for 10 guests, and you can imagine sitting there long into the evening, enjoying a little after dinner treat.

Adjacent to the dining room is the main lounge, this was once actually two rooms but is now a very generous space with lots of comfy seating. In addition, there is a fully restored vintage bar billiards table that is in perfect working condition. This is a fun addition to the house, beyond what you might ordinarily expect, great entertainment for all the family. The room also features a wood burner.

The last of the three rooms is the TV chill out room where a separate group can play games or relax in front of the 49inch curved Smart TV on the large leather corner sofa. This sofa also converts to a double bed should additional sleeping accommodation be required (Please note that there is an additional charge for the sofa bed to be made up, please enquire with the team should this be something you wish to use) This room also has a working wood burner.

Dogs are welcome to join you in this room and the kitchen/diner, but we respectfully request dogs are not allowed into bedrooms or the lounge/billiard room.

The utility room is an ideal doggy chill out/sleeping area, the coolest spot in the house during summer and boast’s its own fully fenced dog garden, ideal for night time leg stretching! The utility room also has a Belfast sink, washing machine and tumble dryer.

The master bedroom is situated on the first floor and features a super king size bed, two lovely views, complete with window seats overlooking the front and side gardens. Ample hanging space is afforded to guests and the room also includes a Freeview TV.
