Property Details
Inspired and built in the late 1990’s by the current owners, the property was thoughtfully designed by the architects to create what is a breathtakingly sumptuous home. The idea was to create a unique property, built in a traditional style but to modern standards, and it certainly delivers on that brief in every aspect.
The bespoke features start as you enter through the front door into the porch area. This leads straight through to the hugely impressive entrance/dining hall - specifically designed by the current owners. This baronial style area complete with feature fireplace and oak beams, offers a fantastic entertaining space. A door to the right leads through to the kitchen/family room. With views to the front of the property, range style cooker and an impressive island, this is the spacious and light-filled heart of the home. The room extends from the front to the back of the property where there is a large dining area featuring a bay window with views to the rear. Off the kitchen is a handy utility room housing the white goods.
Through a set of double doors from the dining end of the kitchen is accessed the orangery, complete with French windows leading to the rear garden. This is a light and spacious room with windows all around and an up-lit vaulted ceiling adding to the general sense of grandeur. The floor has recently been raised to make it the same level as the kitchen making it an accessible space for all. The room also has access to the front of the property.
To the left of the entrance hall is the main reception/drawing room. Also running from the front to the rear of the property, and with its own large feature fireplace, the room has double doors to the rear patio and formal pond and a bay window to the front. Although a large space with light flooding in from both ends, it also feels cosy and makes the perfect place in which to spend time in front of the fire on a cold winter’s day. The ground floor is further complemented by a W.C./cloakroom.
The wooden staircase from the dining room leads to the first floor and the galleried landing lit by a full-height Clerestory window. At one end is the principal suite with shower room and dressing room. The large leaded style window has views over the rear garden. On the other side of the landing is a second double room, again with an en-suite. Passing a smaller fifth bedroom/office and the family bathroom, the landing leads to two further double bedrooms. One to the front with an en-suite and one to the rear with views over the garden. In between the two is a second staircase going into the loft space. Complete with power and light and heating, the opportunities for the “loft bedroom” are many - perhaps a home office, play room, another bedroom or simply storage space.
Outside, the property is surrounded by gardens. Behind electric gates, the large gravelled driveway, with space for multiple vehicles, leads right up to the front door and a stone built gardener’s shed with power,W.C. and wash basin is opposite. As you journey around the property, passing the orangery on your left, you will reach a formal patio area with Italianate-style pond with rill to the lower pond. Steps lead down through established beds onto the main garden laid mainly to lawn. The sound of the waterfall flowing into the natural style pond creates a lovely, tranquil and calming environment in which to relax. There is a folly constructed from a gothic priory door halfway down the garden and at the bottom there are two wooden sheds. With views back up to the house, through mature trees and shrubs, there is a real sense of privacy and peacefulness.
The property is full of interesting and bespoke features. Everything - from the design of the front door; to the window latches and light switches - is unique and all add to the wonder of this amazing property in their own special way. In an ideal position, situated on a lane, with other executive-style properties
