Description

An impressive extended Edwardian Country House providing the extensive and versatile accommodation that is further enhanced by the surrounding gardens, outbuildings, equestrian facilities and attractive countryside affording open views yet conveniently located for excellent communication links, schooling and amenities.

This substantial residence has been a much-loved home to several generations of the same family, offering exceptional space across four floors—from cellar to attic—easily accommodating
multiple lifestyles or intergenerational living. The grand period entrance hall and high ceilings set the tone for the home, leading to three beautifully appointed reception rooms and an expansive open plan kitchen, dining and family room which forms the heart of the property. This generous space opens into a garden room and continues out to a large paved terrace, ideal for entertaining
or enjoying the tranquillity of the landscaped gardens.

The home retains a wealth of original features including stained glass windows, tiled floors, cast iron fireplaces and a traditional Aga, all blending harmoniously with light-filled modern spaces. A walk-in pantry, separate utility and boot room, and a dedicated laundry room offer everyday practicality for busy family life.

On the first floor, the principal bedroom enjoys dual-aspect views and features a walk-in wardrobe and a luxurious en-suite bathroom with a freestanding clawfoot bath. Three further spacious bedrooms also benefit from en-suite shower rooms and built-in wardrobes. A well-positioned home office completes the floor, offering privacy for remote working.

The top floor offers remarkable flexibility, as further bedrooms recreational space or a fantastic work space complemented by three bath/shower rooms. This extensive attic space features attractive exposed timbers.

Set with grounds of 1.9 acres, a rural dwelling of this size is complete with a range of outbuildings. Versatile external storage enhance the desirability, with three stables, tack room, garage and store. The outdoor school is floodlit and has its own water supply.

Set back behind electric gates, a sweeping gravel driveway leads in and splits off to the neighbouring property. There is ample parking and a turning circle, that adds presence to the main façade.

A truly unique proposition and one that must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
