The Red House has been a beloved family home for 60 years and now ready for updating to suit a new family. It is a wonderful example of a listed period home situated close to the centre of the town. Mentioned by Nikolaus Pevsner in his series The Buildings Of England it is a house of historical importance. The accommodation is as laid out in the enclosed floor plans.

The substantial front door flanked by Doric pilasters takes you into the reception hall, with access to four of the five reception rooms and a delightful staircase rising to the first floor. Throughout the house each room offers a wealth of character with C17 style panelling, moulded and dentil cornices and feature fireplaces. The balance of the ground floor is made
up by the kitchen, breakfast room, boot room and guest cloakroom.

On the first floor there are six lovely bedrooms, two bathrooms, a shower room, and a separate cloakroom.

The Old Surgery
A separate cottage within the gardens, offering two bedrooms, a bathroom, sitting room and kitchen.

Outbuildings
There is a double garage with good sized storage room over, a workshop and garden shed.

Gardens and grounds
A gravelled driveway leads under an archway from the main road, through to the rear of the property, The Old Surgery and the garaging. There is a large expanse of level lawn, interspersed with floral borders, rose beds and mature trees. There is also a beautiful Victorian rose garden with original perfumed varieties. To the southern side of the garden an enclosed area houses the swimming pool and pool house. The gardens lead down to the Heron Stream a pretty chalk stream running through the centre of the town. Beyond the stream is a further area of lightly wooded land with gated access from The Poplars. The whole extends to about 0.48 acres.

Beyond the gardens and grounds, there is a further acreage of lawn, which may be available by separate negotiation.
