East Foscote, near Grittleton

East Foscote House is a stunning semi-detached barn conversion, beautifully situated in the delightful rural setting of East Foscote, just outside of Grittleton village.

The interior is truly impressive, complemented by equally remarkable gardens and grounds of around 1.35 acres in all.

The home boasts superbly proportioned rooms throughout, each offering captivating views of the meticulously designed gardens or the adjoining countryside. The substantial accommodation includes five versatile reception areas and an impressive fashionable kitchen family room.

Two separate staircases lead to two wings of the first floor, which comprise five comfortable double bedrooms and three well-appointed bathrooms.

The exemplary garden is a testament to careful design and devotion, offering an idyllic haven with symmetrical landscaping, vibrant perennial beds, tree-lined pathways, and shaped hedging. At the far end, a stone-built 'party' barn offers a fantastic space for entertaining, positioned beside a decked hot tub area.
