Description
A rare opportunity arises in the sale of ‘Wrenroc’ to acquire one of the few Georgian houses in area. A perfect fusion of period proportions and style meeting contemporary and homely character.
A house for entertaining either indoors or alfresco with a glass roofed, heated dining verandah on a deep terrace opening from the bespoke dining kitchen. The elegance of the rooms is matched by the quality of landscaping and planting of the manicured gardens. Specimen plants abound and deep shrubbery borders flank the lawns and set stone lined gravel pathways. The gardens offer a high degree of privacy and frame the house beautifully.
The quality of the house is outstanding with oak floors and elegant period features, gorgeous fireplaces and yet meets all contemporary demands with a bespoke kitchen & granite surfaces, recently fitted bathrooms and storage solutions, a good sized garage and an adjoining store room.
The principal bedroom suite includes a sitting room with a fireplace, a large en-suite bathroom and a dressing room. On the second floor is a fitted seasonal wardrobe room and a self-contained bedroom suite with a well appointed bathroom and would be ideal for a nanny or teenager wanting their own space.
The remaining bedrooms are all double and most have fitted wardrobe cupboards and fireplaces. Houses like this can only be fully appreciated by internal inspection as photos rarely do justice to them; this is simply a house which must be viewed internally and experienced.
