Victorian Country Home in exceptional locale

Description

Victoria Hall is an exceptional villa which was built in 1897 and named in celebration of Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee. The sellers purchased the property in 2002 and since then there have been extensive renovation works to create a beautiful five bedroom family home with self contained annexe apartment to the rear and two letting cottages. The property is surrounded by carefully maintained mature gardens with a wide variety of shrubs and trees. The garden also contains outbuildings including greenhouses and huts.

The accommodation on the ground floor begins with a pretty entrance veranda leading to the vestibule and reception hallway. There is a magnificent open plan drawing room and off the reception hallway there is a study/home office, sitting room, modern fitted dining kitchen with a range of fitted base and wall mounted units, and a cloakroom/WC.

The additional accommodation on the ground floor of Victoria Hall includes a utility room and substantial workshop. Upstairs the property comprises a principal bedroom with walk in wardrobe and en suite shower room along with four additional well-proportioned double bedrooms, with the second bedroom also having an en suite shower room. Completing the first floor is the family bathroom,

The access to the self contained annexe apartment is through an inner hallway leading to a sitting room, conservatory taking advantage of the beautiful views, double bedroom, shower room and modern fitted kitchen with appliances and base and wall mounted units.

The two cottages to the rear both have their own vestibules and each has a sitting room with open plan kitchen, two double bedrooms and a shower room. The second cottage also has a sun room.
