Each reception room boasts many original features, including fireplaces, service bells and bay windows, and one of the reception rooms has access to the garden. The kitchen is a good size and has access to the courtyard to the rear of the property and the ‘lad’s room’. From the kitchen, you will find a large sunroom with UPVC windows and door.

The grounds of Fairstead extend to approx. 0.48 acres and feature a grassed lawn to the front of the property, patioed area to the sides and a courtyard to the rear.
