Freehold
Description
in its construction for the time. It is arranged as a villa with gothic revival features and built of mellow honey coloured rubble stone facades with a bow front and side under a clay tile fish scale roof. A tiled veranda to first floor height protects the full height sash mullion windows and the ornate stone
door case with a lantern light above. On entering the main reception hall, you are immediately
made aware of the volume and light throughout the property. The accommodation is principally on two floors with a further attic level with large rooms and wonderful views and a basement suitable for storage and wine cellar. The ground floor accommodation flows around a central stair hall with a domed glazed lantern in the roof that pours light into the hall, the impressive staircase and large landing. The layout of the property would allow for a separate east wing should one wish
and the attic rooms create superb living spaces for elder children or staff with separate staircases allowing for total privacy. The present owner is an interior designer and the property has had the interior featured in numerous national papers
and magazines. The property has been presented beautifully to create a modern family home fit for country living and entertaining, seamlessly blending in with the numerous period features that include open fireplaces, ceiling coving, large sash windows with wooden shutters, and flagstone floors. One is immediately drawn to the views from the property,
especially from the main bedrooms, as well as the superb dining room and kitchen with exposed wooden floors, an Aga and opening out onto a side terrace which makes for great al fresco entertaining. The terrace leads past the stone built pitched roof outbuildings that are suitable a number of uses to a side garden and wooded glade. At the front of the building is a large lawn surrounded by mature shrubs, flowering plants and
trees and overlooks the valley to the west. Behind the house is a wonderful walled garden, presently arranged as a kitchen garden with a chicken run and large conservatory. The West facing gardens with the superb views over the fields that gently drop away create a divine setting.
