Stone stairs lead to the front door which opens onto a bright hallway with light grey Pyrenees marble floors. These run through the front reception rooms. A fine elliptical staircase with beaded detailing, wrought iron spindles and oak treads forms an impressive focal point and the plaster ceiling features plaster mouldings.
Double doors open to the left from the hallway onto the dining room (5.3 x 5m) with open fireplace and two south facing windows. Double doors open to the right onto the sitting room (5.3 x 5m)with marble fireplace. Two sets of windows open to the south and tall French doors open out to a breakfast terrace to the East.
