7 bedroom detached house

This characterful 18th century family home was refurbished in recent times and has a heated swimming pool, cinema and billiard room, period features including inglenook fireplaces and exposed beams as well as a contemporary annex. It is approached via a long driveway with entrances from both Highstead and Boyden Gate Hill and flanked by a large lawn, mature trees, high hedging and leads to the garages and off road parking. The front door opens into a lobby with cellar access and leads to the beamed ‘snug', utility room and bathroom.

The contemporary kitchen includes underfloor heating, units housing a variety of appliances and is open to the breakfast room with matching cupboards. There is a wide archway to a seating/dining area with a brick fireplace, a spiral staircase and a further arch to the drawing room. This has access to the conservatory, original oak flooring, a beam and ornate coving that all continue into the adjacent billiard room with its full size billiard table and a beautiful inglenook fireplace.

The spacious dining room opens onto a courtyard and has a door down to the stunning cinema room. Another pair of multi-pane French doors open into the contemporary annex kitchen/breakfast room with access to the garden and stairs to a shower room and two double bedrooms. The spiral staircase from the seating area leads to the beamed main bedroom with mirrored wardrobes, a large dressing room, an en suite bathroom and access to the flat roof. There are three further double bedrooms and a single as well as a staircase down to the bathroom.

The secluded swimming pool complex has a summer house with a toilet and shower. The rear garden includes a terrace, a large lawn with fishpond, mature trees and shrubs, a log store/stable and a paddock.

What the Owner says:
This has been our family home since before I was born. It is a wonderful country house in an idyllic location and provides me with a raft of happy memories. Over the past few years we have been delighted to update parts of the house and provide excellent leisure facilities for all our family and friends, however we feel that it is time to start a new chapter in our lives and hope new owners will be able to enjoy everything this special home has to offer.
