Margaretting, Ingatestone

VICTORIAN SPLENDOUR - Eweland Hall is the major wing of this magnificent country house, restored to the most remarkable of standards by the present owners, offering a sublime & timeless interior awash with period features, including exceptionally high ornate ceilings, hand carved cornicing, original window shutters, deep skirtings, and wonderful light filled rooms.

Located within a secluded, gated position within the heart of Margaretting at the end of a long and meandering approach, amidst landscaped grounds of approaching 2.1 acres with heated swimming pool and detached double garage and workshop.

Arranged over two floors with all principal accommodation overlooking the private gardens, at every turn the home unfolds with subtle opulence and wonderfully spacious rooms. The drawing room enjoys a grand bay together with a central fireplace with inviting log burning stove, whilst the kitchen/breakfast room - so tastefully appointed - enjoys three pairs of French doors opening to the front, sunny terrace. A further sitting room also enjoys a log burning stove in a more contemporary style, with further doors toa side patio, an ideal room for summertime entertaining. The ground floor is completed by the most delightful laundry room with original glass fronted cabinetry and a large central island.

The grandeur of the staircase cannot be adequately described, with a feature stain glass window at its highest point and a discreet study located at the return point. The landing is galleried and gives access to the master bedroom suite, which enjoys a luxurious en-suite with underfloor heating. There are three further bedrooms and a recently modernised family bathroom, with a bath set within the second bedroom (perhaps lending itself to an en-suite setup if desired).

To the exterior the gardens have been thoughtfully landscaped and carefully tended, radiating from both the front and side of the house. Vast swathes of lawns are interspersed with a multitude of both mature trees, evergreen shrubs and perennial underplanting to create green outlooks and a peaceful, formal, yet easy to maintain garden.

Within the grounds there is a heated in-ground swimming pool, a shower room, pool house/store, and a double garage with workshop to the rear.

This home and its enchanting surroundings can only be truly appreciated in person. We welcome serious enquiries via Adam Walker and the Period Homes team on .

If you wish to buy or sell your own piece of British heritage, complete the contact form or give us a call.

Unsure if your property qualifies for inclusion within our portfolio? Send us a photograph for an immediate response. The original part of the property must be built before 1940 and retain a good level of the original character and features, at least externally.

If you would like to buy a period home but you have a modern home to sell first, we can assist via our sister company, Walkers, which just so happens to have been voted Britain's Best Estate Agency in the British Property Awards. That way, both elements of your move are in the very best of hands.
