Dial House is believed to date back to the early 1820s and for a house of this stature, prominence and importance is curiously not listed. The property has been added to sympathetically over the years and kept meticulously by the current owners, with the house itself benefitting from many of the period features one would expect from this era, including generously proportioned rooms with good ceiling heights, some beautiful old fireplaces and tall sash windows overlooking the surrounding gardens.
Of particular note to the property is the kitchen/breakfast room with recently fitted kitchen by Neptune Kitchens, housed in an orangery by Vale Garden Houses and giving uninterrupted views and access over the sun terraces and gardens surrounding to the countryside beyond. This room provides wonderful entertaining space and warm heart to the house year-round.
The remainder of the property offers well proportioned, flexible family accommodation over two floors with a sitting room and study offering further accommodation beyond the formal drawing room which forms the core of the house.
Outside is the recently added music room/studio by Vale Garden Houses, which is accessed by a gravel path from the house, leading off the sun terraces by the kitchen. This useful living space incorporates its own bathroom and benefits from underfloor heating, double glazing and air conditioning, making for a perfect teenage break-out space or home office.
The property is entered through a five-bar gate, with the gravelled driveway winding to the house and the turning area in front of the three-bay garage and store. The formal gardens surrounding the house are level and principally laid to lawn with some beautiful mature hedging, some established shrub borders, glorious sun terraces and flat formal lawns.
The property further benefits from a beautiful kitchen garden with greenhouse and shed, mature specimen trees, including several fruits, and extensive sun terracing to the southerly elevation.
