The accommodation is generously proportioned throughout and offers a great deal of versatility with elegant high-ceilinged rooms and traditional décor that is sympathetic yet neutral, allowing for a new buyer to add their personal stamp while honouring the character of this unique home. The detached property sits in extensive and well-maintained grounds of about 0.69 of an acre including a large garage arranged across two floors which has great potential to be converted into ancillary accommodation, ideal for multi-generational living or as an income generator (subject to obtaining the necessary consents).

Access is via a grand entrance hall leading through to a sitting room with log burning stove, formal dining room, study/library, private office and 32ft games room/gym. The open plan John Gresham kitchen/breakfast room is a sociable space complete with appealing bespoke units, Quooker instant hot water tap and a vast central island with built-in wine-fridge. From here is the wonderful adjoining orangery with underfloor heating and tall vaulted glass ceiling affording excellent natural light with French doors out to a private courtyard garden.
A galleried first floor landing leads to five bedrooms, one of which is currently being utilised as a dressing room and two separate family bathrooms. On the second floor are two further impressive bedrooms and an additional bathroom, making an ideal space for older children or visiting guests.
