Bradley Hall is delighted to present Vigo House, an impressive and substantial four -bedroom detached home. This Grade II listed Georgian house, believed to date back to 1810 and formerly part of Lord Lambton’s estate, occupies a private site of approximately 0.75 acres. Accessed via a stone-pillared gated entrance with decorative wrought iron gates, the property features a large, part-walled garden, an extensive gravel driveway, and a double garage. The current owners have substantially improved and modernised Vigo House, including double glazed boxed sash windows with weights & cord opening mechanism in addition to being fully rewired. The water heating is powered by an efficient Fischer boiler.

Vigo House is adorned with sliding sash windows and high ceilings, adding to its historical charm. On the ground floor, a large entrance hallway leads to the formal dining room. The bespoke kitchen offers a range of wall and base units with a contrasting marble countertop, matching upstands, and splashback. Integrated appliances include a wine fridge, dishwasher, fridge/freezer, and stainless steel oven.

The main living room offers breathtaking views over the formal gardens and boasts a feature marble fireplace housing a log burner. Additional ground-floor spaces include an office/snug, utility room, and a convenient WC. The main bathroom is fully tiled and features luxurious gold accents, a bath with an overhead shower, WC, and basin.

Bedrooms
The master suite is a vast space with a fully fitted dressing room and an en-suite bathroom comprising a bath, WC, basin, and fitted cabinetry. The second en-suite is fully tiled and includes a walk-in shower, basin, and WC. The second bedroom benefits from reinstated original wood flooring and a dual-aspect view over the gardens. Bedroom three also features original wood flooring, a fireplace, and a fully tiled en-suite with a walk-in shower. The remaining two bedrooms are generously sized and share similar high-quality finishes.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
