The Property
Dalton House, a Grade II listed property originally built in the early 19th century, stands as an impressive stone-built home that was significantly altered and extended in the early 1900s. This splendid property is set within approximately 2.85 acres of beautifully landscaped gardens and grounds. A magnificent tree-lined avenue and driveway lead to an open courtyard and a spacious parking area capable of accommodating numerous vehicles.
The house benefits from a small grazing paddock at the front, while the rear and side of the property feature meticulously manicured lawns, vibrant flower beds, and shrub borders, offering ample relaxation space. Additionally, the property boasts excellent detached outbuildings, including a workshop/studio, a large garage, a stable, and a separate range of structures under a pantiled roof, such as a general store and a gardener's WC.
Dalton House's unique stone architecture, generous family accommodation, and stunning garden views make it an exceptionally appealing and significant property.
The property retains a truly welcoming and traditional atmosphere, now complemented by elegant, updated decor. This includes fresh, neutral colours in the expansive drawing room, delightful sitting/dining room, and airy, high-ceilinged rooms throughout. Each space harmoniously combines modern aesthetics with the property's historical elements, such as decorative cornicing and charming ceiling roses. The kitchen/breakfast room continues to feature classic country style, updated with a lighter palette around the striking stone inglenook that houses a stunning AGA. The kitchen is served by an adjoining utility and connects to a rear hall in the west wing of the property, which has a separate private entrance and continues as a successful Bed & Breakfast.
Stairs rise from the main hall and also from the rear hall to the first floor and the bedroom accommodation. The same, tastefully neutral palette is preserved in the bedrooms and bathrooms. The principal bedroom is hugely generous, with glorious views over the front gardens and an en-suite bathroom that is Jack & Jill to the upper hall. There are five further double bedrooms, all elegantly appointed and with views over various aspects of the gardens. The bedrooms are served by three family bathrooms, and there is also a linen room that could be configured as an additional bedroom if required.
Externally
The property is approached via a tree-lined tarmacadam driveway that passes through the lovely gardens and grounds to an open courtyard with parking for an impressive number of vehicles. The beautiful gardens have been carefully laid out and perfectly maintained to create attractive and peaceful surroundings that can be enjoyed all year round. There are sweeping areas of lawn along with mature fruit trees and a variety of well-established beds and borders featuring colourful plantings and shrubs. A paved terrace runs across the rear of the house with direct access from the conservatory. This is a perfect spot for outdoor entertaining and dining. The peace and privacy is further enhanced by the mature trees and shrubs that wrap around the property.
The property benefits from a range of outbuildings. The detached garage and stable has planning permission to convert into two-bedroom cottage, and there is also a tack room, two woodsheds, a wood store and a useful gardeners WC. The grazing paddock to the front of the property adds to the feeling of space and tranquillity.
