The entrance to Fig Tree Court is a paved terrace that leads to the vestibule with glazed doors.

Inside, there is an incredible hallway, measuring 50 ft, with a stunning dome-shaped ceiling and arched design. From this hallway, two main reception rooms lead off. The magnificent drawing room features mahogany walls, glazed book and china display cabinets, and panel cupboards with brass fittings. On the opposite side of the hall, you'll find the atmospheric dining room with dramatic oak wall panelling and high oak ceiling timbers.

Behind an oak-panelled door, there is a former butler's pantry that has been cleverly converted into a small office. This office leads to the fitted kitchen/breakfast room. Adjacent to the kitchen, there is a comfortable family room concealed behind wooden panel doors that can be folded. Additionally, there is a rear entrance lobby, a separate utility room, and a cloakroom located off the kitchen.

The first-floor staircase leads to a long landing, providing access to the principal bedroom with a small balcony overlooking the cut flower and 'White' gardens. The principal bedroom suite includes a well-fitted en suite bathroom and a separate dressing room. The second guest bedroom is beautifully panelled and features an en suite bathroom. Three more bedrooms, a bathroom, and a separate cloakroom are also situated on the first floor.

The second floor consists of a bedroom, bathroom, and an additional suite with a bedroom, sitting area/kitchen, and bathroom, which would be ideal for an au pair.

Outside, the property boasts beautiful gardens, recently renovated and replanted to preserve the original design by Gertrude Jekyll, known for her formal walled garden and terrace. Climbing plants and trees adorn the garden walls and house. The majority of the gardens are composed of light woodland, mature beech, silver birch, red oak, and species of rhododendron, intermingled with specimen trees, ensuring a pleasant view from the house and paths throughout the property.

A prolific fig tree is planted near the renovated lily pond, honouring the property's name from 1896. Beyond the walled garden, there is a newly established 'White Garden' featuring a pond with Roman ends and a flowing water feature.

In the parkland grounds, you'll find a circular formal pond stocked with Koi Carp, accompanied by a restored traditional summer house. There is also a private heated swimming pool (in need of refurbishment) with a spacious pool house that includes a sitting area, kitchen, shower room, and W.C. Adjacent to the pool house, there is a large, decked area suitable for outdoor dining.

Concealed from the main house, there is a former vegetable garden with greenhouses, various timber outbuildings, a poly tunnel, and a composting area.

In total, the gardens and grounds cover approximately 6.5 acres.

A designated parking area for three cars is located at the front of Crooksbury House.

Fig Tree Court is part of the original Crooksbury House and is a remarkable testament to the collaborative genius of architect Sir Edwin Lutyens and landscape designer Gertrude Jekyll. This historic country house, constructed between 1891 and 1894, showcases their impeccable craftsmanship and shared vision of blending architectural beauty with natural landscapes. The collaborative work of Lutyens and Jekyll at Fig Tree Court serves as a testament to their exceptional talent and their ability to create spaces that harmonize architecture and nature in a truly remarkable way
