The bathroom is yet another standout feature, exuding traditional elegance with a luxurious roll-top, clawfoot bath, complete with a classic overhead shower riser. Set beneath a large window, the space is flooded with light, further enhanced by a charming radiator, under-sink storage, and a fresh neutral palette. A stylish patterned floor adds a contemporary touch.
