PROPERTY PARTICULARS

'Exning House' was originally constructed in the English Baroque Style around 1735 for Francis Shepheard by the famed mason and architect Andrews Jelfe.  The grand building is set within mature grounds approaching 8.3 acres (sts) which includes a tennis court, wooded area, vast swathes of manicured lawns and approached via a gated driveway.  

The 'Hardy Apartment' occupies the top floor and as such enjoys wonderful views across the parkland and beyond from almost every aspect.  The accommodation is beautifully presented following a full programme of upgrading and the current owner has created a contemporary look but with a subtle nod to the period style of the property and its original features.  

Upon entering the property the pallets of grey create a feeling of calmness and the low maintenance Karndean flooring, in its geometric design, pulls you onwards into the spacious apartment.  The entrance corridor takes you straight into the lounge which has some interesting design features such as the exposed angled structural supports and an impressive shelving area with television recess and inset remote controlled electric fireplace.  Windows to two sides frame the beautiful countryside perfectly and in addition afford views down into the walled garden below.

The modern kitchen is partly open to the lounge and has recently been updated to a very high standard which includes a good selection of full height and wall mounted cabinets together with marble effect worksurfaces and Siemens appliances such as a touch control hob, eye level ovens, warming drawer, dishwasher and fridge/freezer.  The addition of a breakfast bar and island makes this a perfect place to start your day!

The generous master bedroom again enjoys views down towards the grounds and has an impressive range of fitted closets plus a dressing area and en-suite with shower cubicle having a rainfall shower head, twin wash basins and floating concealed cistern toilet.  Two further bedrooms are located close to the front of the apartment with one having a further en-suite shower room with twin sinks, large shower cubicle with rainfall head and floating w.c.
