Description

Monkswell House is believed to have been in existence since the 14th century. Its colourful history has seen it change from a Captain's house in the 16th century, to a country estate in 1840. Since then it has evolved into the characterful and spacious family home of today. Monkswell House benefits from the many period features one would expect from a property of this age.
On entering the property one is instantly reminded of its grand history. There are three large formal reception rooms, all with woodburning fires and original parquet flooring throughout. The kitchen is very well suited for modern living, with an oil fired Aga and granite worktops. From the kitchen there is access to the pantry as well as doors to the boot room and out to the kitchen garden.
The main staircase to the property takes you to two double bedrooms as well as a single bedroom and bathroom. In addition, there is the principal en suite bedroom.
There are a further two bedrooms and bathroom which can be accessed from the rear staircase. All the rooms on the South side of the property benefit from fantastic far reaching views over nearby countryside.
