6 bedroom house for sale

Set down a sweeping, tree-lined driveway, the property has predominantly Edwardian origins which is evident from the grand reception rooms but with a charming earlier Victorian wing which has a cosier, more farmhouse feel. With double glazing, biomass boiler and solar panels it has 21st century eco-credentials, truly the best of both worlds.

The grand entrance hall is most impressive with polished wood flooring flowing up the elegant central staircase as well as through the principal reception rooms giving a cohesion to the space. The double aspect drawing room has a stone fire surround and log burner, ornate cornicing and a dado rail – all the hallmarks one would expect from this period with a pretty conservatory leading from French doors in the bay window. The formal dining room has a square bay window, a marvellous focal point for the room and steps leading down to rear hallway where there is a pretty study in the older part of the house with exposed stonework. The kitchen/breakfast room is also in this older wing – a charming, double aspect room with an Aga, a run of shaker style cabinetry under wooden worktops and plenty of room for free-standing furniture and a breakfast table and chairs. French doors lead out to the front south-facing terrace and the adjacent snug also enjoys outlooks to the front. At the rear of the house is a further family room and large reception room with an adjoining shower room which lends itself to being a
ground floor bedroom if required.

On the first floor are four main bedrooms on two differing levels. The principal bedroom to the front has a walkthrough dressing room and a square bay window, giving the room a light and bright feel whilst the other bedroom has French doors onto a lovely balcony with views over the side garden. Both these share an elegant bathroom with can be directly accessed from the principal bedroom. Two further bedrooms to the rear share another family bathroom. A door through to the west wing has three further bedrooms albeit one is a smaller room so could be a study or indeed a kitchenette and another bathroom.
