The house has versatile accommodation, which is arranged over three floors and centres around the spacious reception hall with a marble tiled floor and feature oak staircase. Throughout the property, the materials employed are of excellent quality and include - high levels of insulation, underfloor heating to the ground and first floors with radiators on the second floor, engineered oak and limestone flooring, and wiring in the Kitchen, Drawing Room and Sitting Room which provides for connection to an integrated sound system if so desired.

The reception rooms offer generous proportions with high ceilings throughout. The formal drawing room has a triple aspect over the gardens with floor-to-ceiling sash windows and French doors out to the terrace. The Kitchen/Breakfast/Family room is quite simply a stunning space with handcrafted kitchen cabinetry and granite work surfaces. The casual dining area has a vaulted ceiling and bi-folding doors to the rear terracing. There is access to the spacious pantry and boot room from the kitchen. Additionally, on this floor is the laundry room, play room, living room, dining room (currently used as a study), as well as two WCs.

The wide, galleried first-floor landing has four bedroom suites occupying each corner of the house. The Principal suite has a triple aspect and French doors out to a balcony, along with a walk-in wardrobe and an en-suite bathroom. The remaining three double bedrooms on this floor all have en-suite shower rooms. The second floor is given over to three further double bedrooms and a bathroom, plus a large storage room, which also houses the heat recovery system.

To the front, the house is approached via an electrically operated gate, which open on to a sweeping drive, leading to a wide parking and turning area. The detached triple garage includes two open bays and has stairs leading to a first-floor store room. Sitting within approximately 32 acres, the landscaped gardens are laid out over approximately 4 acres and include sweeping lawns, two natural ponds and herbaceous borders. The walled swimming pool is heated by an air source heater and employs a Hypocell salt system for cleansing, negating the need for chemicals and has a summer house with a pump room behind.

To the rear is a wide terrace traversing the house which is ideal for outdoor entertaining. Beyond the gardens is approximately 20 acres of Ancient Woodland with two further ponds, which have an abundance of bluebells in the spring and through which woodland walks meander. Additionally, there is a large barn and a large paddock covering about 8 acres.
