Description

Lower Hollin showcases the proportions and craftsmanship typical of its Georgian origins, with high ceilings, large reception rooms and elegant fireplaces, complemented by thoughtful modern upgrades.

The current owners have undertaken extensive renovation and restoration work externally and internally including the beautiful historic fireplaces in the house.

The entrance hall, with its wide oak staircase, sets an immediate sense of scale and welcome. Principal reception rooms include a formal drawing room, an elegant dining room with original features and a library/study, ideal for home working.

At the heart of the home sits the open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, designed for both everyday family life and entertaining. The contemporary kitchen features a double Belfast sink, granite worktops, a central island with ceramic hob, double electric ovens, wine storage and an upgraded electric AGA. Limestone flooring flows through into the adjoining sitting room, where Crittall doors, a wood-burning stove and French doors connect seamlessly with the terraces and gardens beyond.

A large utility room, boot room, cloakroom and secondary staircase add practicality and flexibility.

The principal bedroom suite occupies a generous position on the first floor, with its own en suite bathroom. There are three further double bedrooms on this level, including a pair of interconnecting rooms served by an en suite shower room, alongside a well-appointed family bathroom with fitted linen cupboards.

Two staircases rise to the second floor, providing excellent flexibility. The attic accommodation includes two additional double bedrooms, a family shower room, an extensive study landing and further character rooms with exposed beams, ideal for home offices, hobbies or guest accommodation.

A cellar level provides additional storage and a games room.

Lower Hollin is approached via a five-bar gate opening to a gravel driveway with parking for eight vehicles. A pedestrian gate leads into the walled front garden, with a path to the front door.

To the rear, the house opens onto raised and lower paved terraces, ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining. The gardens extend into a generous lawned area, enjoying all-day sunshine, with a pond, mature trees, play areas and a productive kitchen garden. A woodland area has been thoughtfully developed, creating a natural space for children, wildlife and quiet walks.

Outbuildings include a brick-built shed and machinery barn with power, along with enclosed courtyards and ornamental planting.

Lower Hollin sits on the edge of Pensax with incredible uninterrupted views across to Rock Norman church, an area renowned for its countryside, walking routes and bridleways. Just up the road is the Bell Inn at Pensax and the Rock Cross Inn for relaxing and socialising.
