Charwin is a delightful country home, originally constructed in the 1960's. The house has been extended and notable amenities added by the current vendors. The accommodation extends to over 8,600 sq. ft., arranged over two floors; the space is generously proportioned and well-balanced between formal and informal living.

The principal reception rooms are arranged around the heart of the house, the amazing vaulted family room where large areas of glass seamlessly connect the house with the outside and provides glorious views over the garden and grounds. The remaining principal reception rooms include the double aspect drawing room and the dining room. The rooms feature impressive fireplaces, views over the grounds and are ideal for entertaining.

The expansive Mark Wilkinson designed kitchen is well-equipped with an Aga, fitted Miele appliances and a Subzero fridge/freezer. The study and utility room can also be found on the ground floor.

The ground floor has excellent accommodation. There are two equally proportioned sumptuous principal bedroom suites with fitted wardrobes and en suite bathrooms. There are four further bedrooms and three bathrooms.

The first floor provides versatile space, currently arranged as a games room, cinema room and dressing room. There is vast storage in the attic, which offers the potential to create further accommodation if required, subject to the usual planning permissions.

Situated next to the main house there is an attractive annexe. Constructed of brick under a tile hung roof, the annexe is similar in style to the main house. The building provides a kitchen, sitting room, bedroom and bathroom. The annexe also provides garaging and is ideal as secondary accommodation.

The private garden and grounds are an important feature of Charwin. The property enjoys stunning well-maintained garden and grounds with many specimen trees, shrub and flower beds.

Extending to the width of the property and to approximately 5.75 acres the garden has so much usable lawn area and connects to the house very well. The gardens include a tennis court as well as an Indian Sandstone paved terraced area at the rear of the property, providing an excellent setting for al fresco dining and a backdrop to the house.

To the east, a raised terrace incorporates a sheltered barbeque/bar, plus a pizza oven. Beyond the formal gardens and grounds there is a large paddock as well as a triple stable block and tack room. Approached from a carriage driveway Charwin has ample parking for a number of cars, as well as a double garage block.

    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
