DESCRIPTION
This glorious period property is situated in the charming downland village of Bury set next to neighbouring historic ‘Bury House’, the home of the late renowned author John Galsworthy who wrote the much revered ‘Forsyte Saga’. The house itself was built in the late Victorian period by a local stonemason who used materials gathered from local historical sites to create and enhance his own property, including gargoyles as pictured, hence the name The Gargoyles.
The property is entered via a spacious entrance hall with solid wood flooring. To one end of the hall there is a generous dining room with large window and feature open fireplace. Adjacent to this is the study with space for two desks, ideal for home working. To the left of the hall is a spacious sitting room, again with solid wood flooring and access to the rear walled courtyard. To the far end of the hall steps lead down to the flag stoned family/dining room with vaulted ceiling and exposed brickwork. From here steps lead up to the beautiful shaker style kitchen with glorious brick flooring, pantry, quartz worktops, ‘Lacanche’ range cooker and access to fabulous vaulted cellar
Stairs lead to first floor landing with two good sized double bedrooms and principal bedroom suite with walk-in dressing area (which could be used as bedroom four). The principal bedroom also benefits from a spacious en-suite shower room and further generous storage. There is a family bathroom with separate shower. There is also access to a large loft space ideal for storage or for potential development for additional accommodation (STNP).

OUTSIDE
Surrounded by beautiful walled gardens, the property is entered via electric gates leading through to a generous parking area with resin based driveway and access to a detached barn. The barn itself is currently laid out in three separate parts, a generous room above, a large utility area/boot room and a garage area housing the eco friendly wood pellet burning boiler. Behind the barn and the house there is a charming courtyard garden with raised flower beds and dis-used well with feature well wheel.
