Description
Description
Dunstan Wood is approached from Dunstan Lane via electric gates opening into a beautiful wooded oasis. The substantial house, extending to 8,145 sqft, is centrally positioned with gardens and grounds extending to 6.43 acres. It is the most beautiful, private setting.
The house was built as his own family home by the architect Walter Aubrey Thomas, probably best known for designing the Royal Liver Building in Liverpool. Dunstan Wood is notably constructed in concrete, making for an impressively strong and stable structure.
The drive winds through the grounds reaching an area for parking beside the detached garage block. The front door opens into a glazed porch and entrance hall linking the ground floor rooms. At the heart of the home is a spectacular open plan family kitchen with fitted storage units, a range of integrated Miele appliances, an island and areas for dining, relaxing and entertaining. It links seamlessly to the garden via bifold doors opening onto a south facing decked terrace, ideal for outside entertaining and sunbathing.
The kitchen links to a sitting room with a large bay window overlooking the garden and the dining room and drawing room are accessed via the staircase hall. Also off the kitchen is a utility room with steps down to the basement, a media room/gym, with spiral stairs to the first floor and a bathroom. On the first floor is a impressive principal bedroom suite, with a dressing room and ensuite together with access to a large balcony and spiral stairs to the gym. There are four further bedrooms on the first floor and two bathrooms (one ensuite). On the second floor are two bedrooms and two bathrooms (one ensuite).
Gardens and grounds
Dunstan Wood is in the most wonderful setting with landscaped gardens making way to mature woodland with an under storey of Rhododendrons and other plants and shrubs. The house is centrally positioned offering considerable privacy and the outdoor swimming pool, with pool house, and the tennis court (requiring refurbishment) and pavilion offering excellent leisure options. The detached garage block has electric doors offers excellent storage space.
