Just released to market for the first time 40 years within the highly exclusive village location of Fryerning.

In addition, there is a detached 1,600 Sqft pool building with excellent facilities and again enjoying secluded views across the formal lawns and gardens towards the woodland beyond. A truly outstanding country house in arguably one of the most idyllic and private setting in Fryerning.
From the imposing frontage with classic country house style, the front entrance leads into an impressive reception hall with views up to the gallery landing. The ground floor boasts four impressive principal rooms including a study/drawing room, sitting room, dining room and living room, again all enjoying attractive views over the grounds. In addition, there is a substantial kitchen/breakfast room and large utility room leading to the ground floor cloaks and boot room.
The property also benefits from an additional ground floor snug or guest bedroom with an adjacent separate bathroom/wc.
On the first floor, there are six bedrooms, four bathrooms, of which one is the principle suite and dressing room, and two others with en-suites.
To the second floor there is a very substantial games room/hobby room.
As the house sits so well within its own grounds, all rooms enjoy attractive views over the substantial grounds, formal gardens and woodland. With high ceilings and substantial windows, the house enjoys bright, airy accommodation, yet still feels welcoming and homely.
Externally there are two large garage blocks to a secluded area with secure parking in addition to the main drive and numerous outbuildings. There are beautifully landscaped and well stocked formal gardens, with attractive ornamental ponds, many fine specimen trees and a substantial woodland area. Attractive walkways lead to the tennis court, lower gardens which enjoy fine views to the rear over rolling countryside giving the property a unique totally secluded setting.
A very rare opportunity to acquire one of the most sort after and highly regarded Country Houses within this exclusive and private location.
