DESCRIPTION
Phillippines Shaw is an exclusive, private estate set behind high, wrought-iron gates with a video entry system, well screened with many mature trees and banks of rhododendrons. Beyond the gates a long tarmac driveway meanders through woodland to a clearing with an impressive turning circle in front of the imposing Ide Hill Hall, originally built in 1834 as a summer retreat for Joshua Wilson-Faulkner, a famous artist and ancestor of the Duchess of Cornwall.
The Grade II listed mansion house was converted into apartments and the old stables were converted into mews houses. There are also some large private mansion houses within the grounds.
The grounds were divided up with most of the residents having their own gardens. The remainder of the grounds are maintained by the management company.
6 Ide Hill Stables is one of the delightful mews style properties, converted in 2005 and set around an immaculate and charming inner courtyard. It is a very handsome looking development with yellow brick elevations under a slate roof with arched windows and brick detailing.
Internally the property presents beautifully and benefits from generous living accommodation, high ceilings and an abundance of natural light.
The house comes with a good-sized private rear garden with paved patio and lawn, surrounded by mature hedge screening, and an area of garden to the front as well with box hedging.
The property is sold with an allocated parking space adjacent to the mews houses and a garage en bloc in the estate with roof space providing extra storage.
