Description

A versatile listed country house in about 8.57 acres.

Description

Albans dates from the 16th century and is listed Grade II of Architectural or Historical interest. The house benefits from a custom-built kitchen/family room, contrasting the main reception rooms with open fireplaces and timbers. The house is set back from the road and overlooks the extensive gardens and swimming pool.

The accommodation flows well, accessed from a fine reception hall which shows the origins of the house, exemplified by exposed timbers and a fine staircase. Taking pride of place is the beautiful kitchen/family room, light-filled and overlooking the grounds. The units are finished in a Shaker style, painted in contrasting colours, anchored around a substantial island. At one end of the room, the ceiling is part-vaulted and features some exposed trusses. Glazed doors open on to a substantial terrace. On the opposite side of the house is the dining room, sitting room and home office, each with their own personality and period features. On the south-west corner of the house, a sizeable family room overlooks the gardens and pool and features a lovely fireplace.

The bedrooms are over two floors, with four bedrooms on the first floor, a fifth bedroom, attic room, gym and playroom on the second floor.

The overall plot extends to about 8.57 acres and the house is set deep within its plot. Beside the house is a range of outbuildings including an open-bay cart lodge. Behind the house is a large, sheltered terrace, with access from the kitchen - ideal for al fresco dining. Enjoying a secluded position is an in-ground heated swimming pool with a paved surround and sun terrace. The gardens and grounds have been well maintained, including a scattering of mature trees and shrubs and some useful outbuildings. Part of the land would be suited for use as paddocks and adjoins open farmland with far-reaching views.
