The en-suite bathroom to the master bedroom is also a stunning feature of the home, with the piece de resistance of the bathroom — and perhaps the home in general — being the incredible freestanding roll top bath. The en-suite also boasts a spacious corner shower, and even an open fireplace if you want to add a touch of romantic pizzazz to the already romantic bathtub.
