INTRODUCTION

Berkeley Grange has been formed from a collection of period stone barns previously serving a neighbouring Farm, believed to date from mid-19th century. Whilst little of the original structure remains, the buildings have been taken down stone by stone, re-constructed and extended using mix of matching sandstone under a new roof of reclaimed York stone, with the bulk of the conversion completing in 2022.

Whilst maintaining a traditional appearance externally, internally the property embraces the best in modern design and technology, including high speed fibre broadband, Control 4 programmed Rako lighting and Sonus sound throughout, under floor heating powered by a combination of ground source and air source heat pumps, air conditioning in key rooms, Anthracite anodized Crittall double glazing combined with hardwood double glazed picture windows, framing the magnificent views.

Natural limestone flooring in the generous entrance hall, with its eye catching double height ceiling and bespoke solid oak staircase, leads in one direction to a leisure suite comprising of a dining area with glazed temperature controlled wine room, bar area featuring bespoke display wall and vaulted original beamed ceiling and a cinema room with terraced ceiling and the best in modern projection and sound systems.

In the opposite direction, via a Crittall glazed walkway overlooking the internal courtyard garden is an inviting study and well-balanced sitting room.

The bespoke Clive Christian kitchen has been thoughtfully designed and offers extensive range of cupboards in mix of pastel colours, under contrasting granite and solid wood worktops, fitted with a range of quality Sub Zero appliances, a four oven electric controllable Aga, separate gas hob, electric oven and Quooker instant boiling water tap.

The quality of finish is evident around every corner, feature lighting matching the bespoke door, power/switch plates contrasting with natural stone and eye catching Crittall windows which bathe every room in copious amounts of natural light. With four double bedrooms in the main barn, all with very stylish and luxurious en suite bathrooms and built wardrobes, the principal suite also having a generous dressing room designed by Clive Christian. Each bedroom and bathroom has been finished in a unique and highly desirable style, perfectly balanced to suit families of varying sizes and ages.

Complimenting this is another wing, boasting a children's play room, separate utility and boot rooms, all finished to the same exacting standards, a gym with air conditioning and a three bay garage with solid oak doors. Above this is a self contained two bedroomed apartment, beautifully appointed and perfect for guests or a housekeeper. Combined this is a deceptively spacious home of unrivalled quality, suited to families of varying sizes and ages.

The property is approached via opposing electric timber gates at either end of the building, opening to reveal a large parking and turning area in front of the main entrance, continuing around the front of the house to the garage block and another large parking area in front, all finished in fine gravel, edged in York Stone blocks.

The gardens extend to the north and west and have been thoughtfully landscaped to draw the eye from all angles, interspersed with a huge range of specimen trees, clipped box and yew and colourful planting, bordered by mature beech hedges. There is also a beautifully designed inner courtyard garden to the south of the buildings, York Stone pathways cutting through raised beds filled with mature trees and shrubs, leading to an outdoor kitchen with ample seating area providing sheltered venues for al fresco dining and entertaining.
