6 bedroom detached house for sale

An delightful detached residence, originally dating back to the early 1800's offering a fantastic blend of contemporary living yet retaining character features, and offering around 8000 square feet of accommodation on approaching 20 acres of wonderful grounds.

The reception hall grants access to the primary rooms of the property. To the right is the drawing room, complete with built-in storage cupboards. On the left side of the hall lies the sitting room, an original part of the house featuring a superb open fire. This flows seamlessly into the games room, which can double as a formal dining room and leads into the kitchen. A downstairs bathroom completes the ground floor.

The open-plan living kitchen is the heart of the house, fully equipped with a range of Miele appliances and a Gas AGA. Bi-folding doors span the length of the room, opening onto the south-facing terrace, creating an ideal entertaining space.

The study, with double doors opening onto the terrace, offers stunning views of the garden. This creates a connection through the studio to the self-contained annexe, which includes a kitchen, shower room, and living area/bedroom with its own entrance and doors to the garden.

The ground floor features underfloor heating throughout.

Upstairs, there are five bedrooms, including the principal suite—a double-aspect room with built-in wardrobes and an en-suite bathroom.

Three further double bedrooms, all with built-in wardrobes (one with a mezzanine dressing area), share a family bathroom.

Bi-folding doors open to an alfresco dining and entertaining area with an outdoor kitchen, pizza oven, bar, and tennis court.
