The Property
The Clock House is a splendid residential conversion forming part of an
exclusive development at Newton Hall, a magnificent stately country property
boasting a wealth of historic interest. Dating from 1772, and possibly
incorporating an even earlier farmhouse, Newton Hall was enlarged and
remodelled in the mid - 19th century. As the name makes clear, The Clock House
still has the amazing old external clock that was added to Newton Hall in
1862. The property has been updated to stunning effect with a high
specification finish and great attention to detail, blending character touches
with elegant and tasteful interior décor. Generous gardens add lovely outdoor
space to enjoy the tranquil wooded location, and an abundance of parking
includes a double garage and a car port with direct internal access to the
house.
The front door opens from the courtyard to the entrance hall. To the right is
the vast sitting room with French doors to the courtyard and eye - catching
modern styling. The ceiling at one end of the room rises to the full height of
the house where it is galleried to the first floor landing and one bedroom.
Adjoining the sitting room is the family room with further relaxing space. The
open plan kitchen and dining room is the perfect place to spend time with
family and friends. Sleek kitchen units house a range of discreet high quality
appliances and the breakfast bar is ideal for casual dining. The hob on the
breakfast bar is complemented by a striking ceiling extractor above. Subtle
lighting adds to the warm atmosphere. The kitchen flows into an expansive
dining area with lots of space for a large table and chairs. The utility room
adds great practicality, and also links onwards to a rear hall connecting to a
store room. Tucked between the kitchen and the family room is a useful ground
floor WC.
Stairs rise to the first floor and the bedroom accommodation. The landing runs
centrally and at one end is the stylish galleried section looking down on both
sides to the sitting room. The principal suite incorporates a fabulous
bedroom, shower room, separate WC and walk - in wardrobe. A cleverly designed
window displays the internal workings of the grand old clock for a unique
touch. The shower room is finished in a boutique style and is complemented by
a separate WC. The huge walk - in wardrobe has an abundance of hanging and
storage space. The bedroom at the opposite end of the house also has a high
specification en - suite shower room. There are two further bedrooms including
one with an interesting gallery at one end above the sitting room. These
bedrooms are served by a lovely bathroom with contemporary freestanding bath,
wash hand basin set in a vanity unit and WC, all wrapped in superb tiling.
Externally
The Clock House benefits from excellent parking provision with a detached
double garage. There is plenty of space for additional off - road parking if
required. The Clock House faces onto a courtyard with French doors opening
from the sitting room to an outdoor seating area for al fresco dining and
entertaining.
The main gardens sit to the east of the house across the driveway, with the
garden plot extending to around 0. 36 acres. The gardens are mainly laid to
lawn for ease of maintenance, with established trees to the boundaries
offering privacy. To one side is a substantial summerhouse with decked seating
area to the front and access to the roof. The double garage sits to one side
of the garden.
