Description

Manderville is a distinguished bespoke 1940s residence with distinctive eyebrow windows occupying an exceptional position in a highly sought-after setting, enjoying far-reaching views over surrounding countryside. It is rare to encounter a home of such presence, set within an idyllic setting and enjoying exceptional privacy.

Set within approaching half an acre of beautifully established wraparound gardens, the property offers generous and well-proportioned accommodation ideally suited to family living. The grounds provide a high degree of privacy and include a charming summer house and swimming pool, creating an idyllic environment for relaxation and entertaining. The plot benefits from electric gates with an extensive driveway providing parking for several vehicles. While the home is perfectly comfortable as it stands, it also presents outstanding scope for further extension, remodelling, or comprehensive renovation to suit a purchaser’s individual vision, subject to the necessary consents.

A striking portico entrance opens through 1940s style Crittall doors into an entrance vestibule and a superb hallway featuring maple flooring, detailed ceiling work, a galleried landing above and an elegant splayed oak staircase. Oak and maple flooring flow throughout the downstairs accommodation. The hallway leads off to a cloakroom with WC and into a well proportioned formal dining room which adjoins the kitchen. The contemporary breakfast kitchen is fitted with sleek cabinetry finished with Corian surfaces and complemented by Miele appliances and a Quooker tap with a well-appointed breakfast bar perfect for informal dining. French doors open up the kitchen/dining space to the garden. A fully fitted utility room with side door access leads to a further WC. Tiled flooring runs through the utility and service areas for practicality.

The double length living room enjoys a dual aspect, a deep fireplace recess with a gas fire, wooden flooring and French doors to the garden room, fitted with Absolute plantation shutters and sliding doors, provides an additional peaceful sitting space overlooking the grounds. A door leads through to the sitting room with maple flooring, marble fireplace with living gas fire in a dog grate and further French doors to the terrace.

The first floor galleried landing is light and spacious with open views to the front. The spectacular principal bedroom has generous fitted Johnson & Johnson wardrobes and a well appointed en suite bathroom with a separate bath and shower with travertine tiled walls. French doors open onto an expansive balcony with decking proving a stunning aspect to this opulent suite. There are an additional four bedrooms, three of which are doubles and also feature fitted furniture. The bedrooms are served by a generous family bathroom with a separate bath and shower. The loft area is partially boarded, providing convenient additional storage.

The gardens are well presented, private with a lawned area, deep terrace designed for evening sun and alfresco dining and bordered by established trees and hedging. A large summerhouse with electricity sits within the grounds, together with an outdoor pool, outdoor lighting to the front and back, extensive driveway space and a comprehensive camera/security system. Gated side paths and a rich variety of specimen trees, shrubs and planting complete the exceptional setting.
