Description
Wickhurst Manor is a striking Grade II* listed manor house of immense architectural and historical interest.
The unique Great Hall forms the heart of the property and was built in 1381, displaying stone construction with deep mullion windows, a stone doorway with ogee arch, vaulted ceiling, octagonal crown post and original timber truss work in place.
Later additions have since been added to seamlessly combine period features with contemporary embellishments throughout, ideal for both family living and formal entertaining.
Salient features include wood panelling, exposed timbers, leaded light windows with stone mullions, oak panelled doors, intricate carved detailing, column radiators, high ceilings, recessed lighting, bespoke kitchen and bathroom suites, and magnificent feature fireplaces.
The impressive primary reception rooms comprise the elegant Medieval Great Hall, a superb drawing room with box bay window and feature fireplace, a dual aspect dining room off the reception hall, and a superb orangery with doors opening to the terrace.
The magnificent kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of bespoke wall and base units, with a range of integral appliances including an Aga, and a central island unit incorporating a breakfast bar.
The adjoining breakfast/family room is ideal for both family living and formal entertaining, with doors opening to the orangery.
A laundry room provides additional storage and space for appliances, together with an additional boot room with access to a wine store.
Two separate cloakrooms and a larder complete the ground floor.
Dual sets of staircases ascend to the first floor and outstanding principal suite which features a bay window, fitted wardrobes, attractive fireplace an a stylish en suite shower room with twin basins and a spacious walk-through shower.
There are four further double bedrooms, two served by modern and well-appointed en suite bathrooms and dressing rooms with bespoke fitted wardrobes, and all providing charming views over the grounds and surrounding farmland.
Wickhurst Manor is approached via dual sets of wrought iron gates with sweeping gravel driveways flanked with manicured lawns and wildflower, culminating at a turning and parking area with garaging. The delightful gardens are predominantly laid to lawn with a combination of formal and informal areas incorporating landscaped lawns, wildflower meadow, vegetable beds, majestic specimen trees and a pond adorned with aquatic planting.
Established, boxed yew hedging and topiary bounds the front and rear gardens within the curtilage of the house and pool area, with a large glasshouse situated to the rear. A paved terrace spans the front of the property with paths leading through the gardens and to the rear of the property, adjoining the orangery and providing excellent areas for al fresco entertaining.
Well-stocked flower beds provide a charming buffer to the pool area, which incorporates a swimming pool with a paved surround and an impressive pool house with kitchen/reception area, W.C, indoor and outdoor shower, steam room and sauna. Situated within the informal grounds is a well-appointed annexe, timber framed garage block, and a tennis court.
