**Introduction**
A breath taking country retreat, surrounded by nearly an acre of impeccably
landscaped grounds and endless countryside beyond. Inside, the original
architecture remains very much in evidence, with a wealth of living space
arranged across the expansive frontage.
**If This Was Your Home. . . **
You'll never tire of rolling up to the very end of your private turning, where
wrought iron gates part and admit you to your vast private grounds. A sweeping
gravelled driveway encircles a central expanse of lawn, leading right to your
front door. The driveway is itself in turn surrounded by the rest of your
expansive grounds, nearly an acre in all.
It's a diverse, expertly landscaped set of gardens, featuring sublime
stretches of endlessly explorable lawn, artfully placed mature trees and
shrubbery, elegant beds of flowers, rockeries, al fresco dining sitting below
a pergola, a well, and many other inspired sparks of landscaping genius. It is
practically your own private park!
Stepping up to the property itself, the broad frontage emphasises the
architecture's equestrian heritage, as well as letting natural light flood
through from front to back. Head inside under the stone porch and you're in
your welcoming hallway, with original timber beams overhead and an exposed
brick wall to your left.
Most striking of all is the broad spiral staircase rising immediately in front
of you. Climbing around beautiful timber beams, with a chrome banister and
surrounded by underlit exposed brick, this is a superb centrepiece, showcasing
the property's elegant blend of modern style and vintage heritage
On your right - into the north wing - you have the kitchen. More vintage beams
and exposed brick are in evidence here, with over 300 square feet of dual
aspect space for cooking and dining. A combined chef's island and breakfast
bar sit in the centre, with induction hob below a sleek extractor.
Countertops are jade Corian throughout, there's plenty of cream cabinets down
the flanks, and honey blonde Karndean runs underfoot. As ever, the views are
superb, with delightful views over your 'park'. A handy utility room sits off
to one side, with more cabinets and counters, plus an imposing brick chimney
breast and hearth - home to your boiler.
Head back to the hallway, past a sleek cloakroom, and the south wing houses
your multiple reception rooms, all complete with more of those charming
exposed brick walls and original timber beams. Continue past the handy study
and your living room's an impressive 315 square feet, with twin bay windows
framing panoramic views of your grounds.
Two brick archways lead off here to your dining and family rooms. Both are
warm, welcoming spaces of around 180 square feet apiece, with the latter
featuring an open exposed brick hearth with wood burner. Finally you come to
your conservatory. The glazed vaulted roof stretches away above you, the
perfect spot to enjoy the outdoors all year round.
It all makes for a generous, flexible suite of spaces, brimming with vintage
style and character, and tailor - made for family gatherings and other special
occasions.
Upstairs and, unusually, you have two potential principal bedrooms. At the end
of the south wing (off to your right after you climb the spiral staircase)
there's a 210 square foot double, with glorious garden views and a gleaming
modern en suite with underfloor heating, twin vanity sinks, rainfall shower
cubicle and a tub.
It seems like no contest until you step into the rearmost bedroom, positioned
at the back of the property. In here you have window sets with dual aspect
views, as well as a gorgeous, beamed, vaulted ceiling. It's quite a space, and
the greatest evidence yet of the building's vintage heritage.
Returning to the staircase, you pass two more bedrooms, each with its own
characterful, tranquil colour scheme, original beams and splendid views. Your
family bathroom features a corner tub, rainfall shower and underfloor heating,
while at the northernmost end there's bedroom five, finished in soft pastel
green with a sleek en suite shower room with underfloor heating.
