Description
Lychwood House was built in the 1980s on the site of the former tennis court
which was at the time within the grounds of the neighbouring Anthony’s Close.
The house has never been on the open market before and the idyllic property
has been architecturally designed and constructed by the owners using rare and
valuable reclaimed building materials and contains a number of charming
features such as bespoke hardwood doors and windows, York stone flags
internally and externally along with exposed pine beams and further features.
The property is approached via a private driveway which leads to a parking
area in front of the garage and a path which leads up to the house and
beautiful Lychgate entrance/porch area.
The ground floor comprises a large hallway, attractive split drawing room with
feature log burning stove in the centre and office at the other side. The
kitchen is a real feature of the house and it was designed in a style that was
ahead of its time to create an open plan feel with central aga within an
exposed brick chimney breast partitioning the kitchen from the dining area.
Further accommodation includes a boot room/cloakroom, pantry, storage further
and an additional cloakroom.
The first floor has a large landing space with library, five double bedrooms
and two recently refurbished bathrooms.
Externally
The grounds are approximately 1. 68 acres and a superb feature of the property,
principally laid to lawn with a large area of woodland, mature trees, shrubs
and plants.
There is a garage and ample parking available.
