Quarry tiled stairs from the entrance hall leads to the restored basement, which is a useful storage/utility room with quarry-tiled floor. It has plumbing for an automatic washing machine, Belfast sink, and tiled worksurfaces.

There is also a wood-framed conservatory with French doors to the patio terrace and gardens.
