An excellent period property supported by auxiliary accommodation, garaging and extensive gardens and grounds extending in all to circa 4.63 acres.
Easton House is an excellent detached residence designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens, in a late 17th Century style and constructed in the early 1900’s. The house offers generous proportions and is complimented by a detached converted former Engine House, a garaging range and grounds extending to around 4.63 acres in all, to include a tennis court, formal gardens and grazing of circa 1.18 acres.
The property is situated within the heart of the village, with good travel links, amenities and schooling, but still enjoys very good levels of privacy.
Historical Note
Easton House is a most attractive and substantial period residence, designed by the renowned architect Sir Edwin Lutyens in 1907, in late 17th Century style with elements of local architectural styles added to his classicism. Easton House has been listed Grade II in recognition of its architectural and historical importance.
The south-eastern elevations of Easton House are particularly impressive as viewed from the extensive lawned gardens, and display red brick construction with two brick ridge stacks, with an external stack to the west with decorative brick work and brick quoins. The ground floor displays six segmental arched wooden cross windows, and all the windows feature square pane leaded lights and wrought iron casements. Grade II Listed within its own right is the converted former Engine House which mirrors the design of main house.
Description
This beautifully presented property offers extensive accommodation over two floors, extending to around 5,920 sq ft (GIA) in all. Internally, the principal rooms are of grand proportions, having high ceilings and retaining many period features such as moulded stone chimneypieces and a cupboard originally from the butler's pantry now situated in the dining room.
Easton House is supported by a garaging range, a converted former Engine House, tennis court and stabling, and stands in around 4.63 acres of wonderful grounds and gardens comprising formal terracing, lawns and grazing land. An extensive driveway provides two points of entry to the grounds, and offers ample parking.

There is a gas fired AGA, electric induction hob, integrated dishwasher and space for an undercounter fridge.
• Off the kitchen there is a large pantry with space for an American style fridge freezer, and a second staircase rising to the first floor.
• Adjoining the kitchen, an additional reception room would make a wonderful playroom
