Description
Description
High View has been refurbished throughout to an exceptionally high standard, capturing the perfect balance between old and new. Retaining original features, such as the eye-catching stained glass windows above the main entrance. Throughout the renovation, all the services have been modernised with new electrics and heating.
An elevated entrance porch opens into a striking entrance hall, with a galleried landing above. Here, one is immediately drawn into the open-plan kitchen, where you will be welcomed by the unforgettable views from the panoramic bi-folding door, which spans the entire width of the room. The kitchen is fitted and includes Gaggenau appliances and marble worktops. It is custom-built and designed to an exceptional standard, accommodating a large dining table to frame the breathtaking views and a sophisticated sitting area too.
Either side of the kitchen you will find a formal dining room and drawing room, both with unrivalled views across your own land. There are two studies on opposite ends of the ground floor, with the added bonus of an additional sitting room, which has a door linking through to the formal dining room. The utility room, boot room and two guest cloakrooms are also located on the ground floor.
The central staircase leads up to the galleried first-floor landing where there are four ensuite bedrooms, including the expansive and impressive principal bedroom, with spectacular views from every window, including its two bathrooms, two dressing rooms and the main bedroom itself. The guest bedroom has its own wing within the east of the house, with a dressing area and ensuite bathroom fitted with a Jacuzzi bath and separate shower.

Outside, High View is accessed via dual electric gates, allowing the main house to be secluded from The Roundel and The Lodge (Lots 2 and 3).

Additional garaging for a further six cars is located to the left of the house.
The property is situated at the top of a hill, with its land rolling down towards the main lake as a focal point.
