Occupying a private rural position, Eyton Villa is a beautiful Georgian
country house with elegant accommodation over three floors. The property has
been beautifully maintained by the current owners who have enjoyed a long
custodianship. Eyton Villa retains many of its charming original features. A
central hallway leads to the primary rooms, including the large
kitchen/breakfast room, adjacent sitting room, dining room, and superb drawing
room which has fantastic southerly views over the gardens. Many of the rooms
have tall ceilings, indicative of the period, and original sash windows,
filling the house with light.
The converted cellars are currently used as a comfortable home office and
storage.
A superb staircase rises to the first floor, where the large central landing
accesses four double bedrooms and two bathrooms. Most notable is the dual
aspect principal bedroom with far reaching views and a large en suite
bathroom. The other three double bedrooms are served by an en suite and family
bathroom.
