Description

Set within approximately 7.25 acres of stunning grounds, an exceptional Georgian home offering a superb lifestyle opportunity in a prime location.

Renovated extensively by specialists Messrs Cubitt Theobald, this Listed (Grade II) home has been sympathetically enhanced to preserve its original character, boasting magnificent sash windows, exquisite cornicing and mouldings, and a grand original staircase. The striking Georgian façade, adorned with mature wisteria, sets a captivating first impression, while the superb front door, complete with Banham hardware, hints at the meticulous attention to detail throughout.

The property is accessed via three separate gated entrances. Externally, the property features beautifully landscaped gardens, a serene Koi pond, and a delightful courtyard planted with ancient olive trees. The impressive stable block presents an exciting opportunity for conversion, subject to the necessary consents, while the substantial garage and extensive driveway provides excellent parking and vehicle storage space. A thoughtfully designed entertaining terrace sits adjacent to the luxurious indoor swimming pool complex, complete with a jacuzzi, providing a perfect setting for relaxation and social gatherings. Internally, the accommodation is elegantly proportioned, with high ceilings on both floors amplifying the sense of space. The heart of the home is the bespoke, in-frame shaker kitchen, flanked by the principal reception rooms including a grand dining room, a charming sitting room, and a separate formal lounge. Well-appointed bedrooms offer delightful views over the surrounding countryside, with the principal suite enjoying a private en-suite with a roll-top bath positioned to take advantage of views over the grounds. Notably, the home features a rare bell supplied by the historic Whitechapel Bell Foundry in the 1800s, the same esteemed makers of the bells in Big Ben.

Positioned in an enviable rural setting, the property enjoys superb seclusion with no immediate neighbours, yet remains well-connected. For the equine enthusiast, the existing stable block, sizeable paddocks, and separate access provides excellent equestrian opportunities.

With its blend of historic charm, impeccable craftsmanship, and premium location, this outstanding home represents a rare opportunity indeed.
