Completely refurbished including a new slate roof, underfloor heating, and wiring by the current owners in 2018. The property offers accommodation arranged over two floors, with stunning family entertaining space, and cosy bedrooms. There are a wealth of original period features throughout, to include stunning gothic arched stone mullioned windows, beautiful stained glass windows and Pugin tiles in the entrance hall.
The main living space has the “wow” factor – in part due to the vaulted ceiling and wooden panelling that separates it from the entrance hall, the drawing room features an open fire. From here is the fabulous Sims Hilditch/Neptune kitchen with central island and four oven AGA. There is a double bedroom with en suite shower room, a further double bedroom/play room or office, a shower room and the utility room.
On the first floor there are two double bedrooms, one with a gorgeous hand painted ceiling, a spacious bathroom and a hallway which provides a versatile space to be a dressing area, study area or nursery. On the second floor there is a good attic space, which is fully boarded, with a pull down ladder, lighting and power; this could be converted subject to obtaining the necessary consents.
The lodge provides fabulous guest accommodation that complements the house, but offers the versatility to be a home office, studio or it can be continued as the very successful short term let that it currently is; providing an annual income of approximately £30,000 per annum.
The lodge comprises an open plan kitchen/living/dining room, bijou double bedroom and bathroom on the ground floor, with a double bedroom on the first floor. There is a small garden to the rear, and a parking space to the side.
The property is approached through large double wrought iron gates, onto a private driveway where there is parking for a number of vehicles.
The mature gardens comprise large formal level lawns looking across the unspoilt parkland views, a wild garden, and a small copse which provides a magical space for children to explore.
There are two outbuildings comprising a summerhouse and an old stable; in addition to a tennis court.
In all approximately 1.21 acres.
