Description
Property Reference: 10079
Sadberge Hall is an exquisite Queen Anne–style residence set within approximately 41 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds. Approached via electric gates, the estate immediately impresses with a private Gate Lodge offering additional accommodation. A sweeping gravel driveway leads through mature woodland, revealing intimate garden spaces, hidden seating areas and enchanting vistas before arriving at the Hall itself. The courtyard is framed by extensive garaging with kennels discreetly positioned adjacent to the main residence.
Arranged over three storeys, this characterful home enjoys an elegant outlook over its gardens. The accommodation begins with a modern, light-filled porch leading into a grand reception hallway featuring parquet flooring, bespoke oak staircase, ornate coving and an impressive 21-foot ceiling. Rooms leading from the hallway include a well-proportioned cloakroom and a stunning formal drawing room complete with a traditional fire fender seat. A spacious second reception room is currently used as one of two home offices.
The magnificent formal dining room showcases exceptional craftsmanship, with a handcrafted ceiling and Swarovski-embossed curtains and rails. Adjoining is the impressive modern orangery, flooded with natural light and offering panoramic views over the manicured grounds. With underfloor heating and double doors opening onto the terrace, this space is ideal for entertaining and al fresco dining.
The kitchen combines contemporary design with a classic country-house feel and is equipped with integrated appliances, an AGA-style oven, and Smeg dishwasher and refrigerator. From here, one is led to the exceptional leisure suite — a true focal point of the home. The wood-panelled indoor swimming pool area includes a jacuzzi, sauna, WC, changing facilities and plant room, creating a thoughtfully designed and luxurious retreat.
Completing the ground floor accommodation are a study, storeroom and access to the cellars.
First Floor
The first-floor accommodation is extremely well proportioned. The principal bedroom suite is bright and elegant, with large sash windows overlooking the grounds. The en-suite bathroom features a double walk-in/walk-out shower, sunken massage bath, integrated wall-mounted television, vanity unit, WC and wash hand basin.
There is a generous guest bedroom suite to the rear elevation with a spacious en-suite shower room. Three further en-suite bedrooms are arranged on this level — two to the front elevation and one to the side — all benefitting from large sash windows. An additional room is currently fitted as a fully customised dressing room but could easily serve as a sixth bedroom if required. Completing this floor is a large family bathroom with shower, WC, wash basin and underfloor heating.
Second Floor
The second floor offers highly versatile accommodation and could be used as a self-contained suite for a dependent relative, accessed via its own staircase. This elevated position enjoys far-reaching views across the estate.
The space includes an open-plan sitting room and kitchen area with exposed beams, a double bedroom, second office, shower room and a modern sunken bathroom, along with extensive loft storage. Further enhancing this level are additional leisure facilities including a second sauna, snooker room and games room, ideal for family use or incorporation into a private apartment.
The Grounds & Gardens
The detached Gate Lodge offers excellent supplementary accommodation, featuring a modern yet country-style kitchen, dining room, three generously sized bedrooms (one with WC and wash basin) and a large family bathroom. This is ideal for guests, extended family, staff accommodation or as an alternative income stream. The lodge benefits from its own garden and a six-car garage, with the option to negotiate additional land if required.
To the front of the Hall, an impressive formal lawn provides ample space for outdoor entertaining and garden parties. The estate benefits from high-quality CCTV coverage throughout.
The gardens and grounds are a particular highlight, comprising mature woodland, formal box-hedged gardens, stone pathways, a charming pond surrounded by flowering shrubs, a fruit orchard and extensive lawned areas. In addition to numerous outbuildings, there is a well-maintained all-weather tennis court.
The estate further boasts exceptional equestrian facilities, previously used by members of Team Great Britain. The American-style barn is superbly equipped, offering a full riding school setup including wash facilities, WC, Monarch horse walker, all-weather canter track and solarium/wash box. Across the 41 acres are 15 state-of-the-art stables and well-maintained paddocks, making this an outstanding offering for any serious equestrian enthusiast.
