The property’s versatile layout extends upstairs to a galleried landing, currently utilised as a study and reading library, which connects four further bedrooms and two additional bathrooms, including a sumptuous ensuite.

Two of the rooms are currently used as additional sitting rooms, with one featuring a double Velux Juliette balcony overlooking the gardens and fields beyond.
For those seeking something truly distinctive, the property includes a circular South African-style rondavel or ‘Breeze House’ (12.5 x 12.5), offering an additional space to entertain, perfectly complementing the main home. Modern upgrades, including new UPVC windows and composite doors, a new water softener, and extensive outdoor lighting, ensure the home is as practical as it is beautiful.
Brambles is more than a home; it’s a lifestyle. From enjoying quiet mornings in the conservatory with uninterrupted field views, to alfresco dining on the terrace, or entertaining friends in the vast, versatile living spaces, this property seamlessly combines luxury, comfort, and versatility.
Particularly appealing to the current vendors was its adaptability for multi-generational living, offering a layout that comfortably accommodates extended family while maintaining privacy and independence for all.
