Description
East Markham House is a substantial period property situated within a conservation area, with the oldest parts dating from around 1742. The house has been extensively altered and extended over the last 10 years, though much of the work has been sympathetic to the character of the home and a good number of original features remain, such as exposed timber beams, brick fireplaces and traditional latched doors. These are beautifully complemented by an array of modern additions, from a stylish and contemporary farmhouse kitchen to sleek bathrooms with roll-top baths and rainfall showers, underfloor heating and beautiful stone-tiled floors. The house has been decorated with neutral tones and splashes of vibrant colour, making it an easy process to personalise by the new owner. It has a "best of both" feel throughout, with a cosy, character style made modern by the updated décor. Externally there are lovely gardens, plenty of parking and an outbuilding which offers flexibility on its use.
The house is deceptively spacious, with a grand Georgian façade leading back some distance and a number of the outbuildings to the rear now converted to create additional living space which totals about 3668 sq ft. The ground floor has a variety of reception rooms, perfect for big family gatherings. A welcoming reception hall opens to a formal sitting room, a snug and a beautifully appointed open plan kitchen/dining room with a wall of windows overlooking the garden. There’s also plenty of storage and space to keep the mundane parts of day-to-day life tucked away, with a laundry room, cloakroom and boot room, plus several generous cupboards.
All of the bedrooms, situated over the top two floors, are double size, individually decorated and possess excellent character, with an additional bedroom on the second floor a particular highlight with its useful dressing area and en suite shower room. Planning permission has been granted for a kitchen extension (14/00995/HSE).
There is private parking on a block-paved driveway which leads along the side of the house, between the kitchen and a detached garage block featuring two garages with barn-style doors and a separate office, ideal for homeworking or as a studio. The walled garden to the rear is south-facing and landscaped to include a variety of mature trees and shrubs, with a lawn in the middle. There are a number of spaces to sit, including a stunning outdoor kitchen with built-in pizza oven.
