THE HOUSE
Little Brook is a substantial family home dating to the early 1920s, and now for sale for the first time in over 50 years. Furthermore, it is believed that the current family are only the second owners since the property was first built. The combination of the separate period cottage, the extensive range of outbuildings and the beautifully established grounds offering complete seclusion of about 6 acres surrounded by Natural Trust common land makes this a rare opportunity. The house is of great charm and with the high ceilings and numerous period features there is an almost Edwardian feel given the scale and proportion of the rooms. All the rooms - particularly the principal reception rooms and bedrooms enjoy lovely views over the secluded grounds. The property has been well cared for over the years and there is excellent scope to update and subject to the usual planning consents extend to create an outstanding family home.
THE COTTAGE
The cottage is a delightful detached period cottage set in a secluded location, largely out of view from the main house. The accommodation comprises two living rooms, kitchen and ground floor bathroom and to the first floor, two bedrooms. The cottage would be ideal for an extended family or to let out.
THE OUTBUILDINGS
There is an excellent selection of outbuildings and garaging as can be seen on the floorplan. The self-styled - ‘The Way Inn’ is a charming period building which has been used as a games room/bar with the two adjacent rooms. Close by there are a selection of attractive period timber buildings, including garaging and workshops with black painted weatherboard elevations under clay pantile roofing. There are in addition three original traditional style greenhouses. The main garage to the house is located on the northern boundary and is an open
fronted, three-car garage with adjacent storerooms.
The grounds are an outstanding feature of Little Brook, extending in all to about 6 acres. The grounds have been
beautifully maintained over many years, providing total seclusion all year round. There are broad sweeping lawns with numerous established flowerbeds, borders, specimen shrubs and trees, and many large mature trees. Tucked away there is an all-weather tennis court and a former swimming pool which is now a natural pond. The paddock is located to the south of the formal gardens. The house is approached by a pair of timber gates leading to a sweeping drive, which leads past the front of the house and the main garage and then down the western flank of the grounds to the remaining outbuildings, where there is generous parking.
