Beautiful apartment in parkland setting

Set within approximately 25 acres of beautiful parkland, the former Redlynch House Estate traces its origins to the 16th century when it was owned by Sir Stephen Fox, Paymaster General to King Charles II.

The estate was subsequently enlarged by his son, the First Earl of Ilchester, who undertook significant expansions during the late 17th and early 18th centuries. Over the years, the house has served a variety of purposes, including as a school, before being sympathetically converted in the mid-1980s into a collection of elegant apartments.

Apartment No. 7 is one of these distinguished residences and is approached via the grand main entrance to Redlynch House. An impressive communal reception hall, featuring a sweeping staircase, rises to the first floor where the apartment is situated.The front door opens into a welcoming entrance hall, where the elegance and character of the apartment immediately become apparent. The kitchen is a particularly attractive space, enjoying high ceilings and windows overlooking the grounds. At its centre is a dining area, while bespoke cabinetry is fitted above and below granite worktops along two walls and incorporates an Aga. A separate utility room is conveniently located directly off the kitchen.Returning to the entrance hall, where a cloakroom is located, a door leads to an inner hallway. From here, access is provided to the elegant drawing room and the staircase rising to the bedroom accommodation. The drawing room is a wonderfully comfortable and refined space, featuring fitted bookcases and an attractive carved stone fireplace with a working fire, creating a warm and inviting focal point.The two bedrooms occupy the second floor of this charming duplex apartment and are beautifully presented. The principal bedroom benefits from a walk-in wardrobe and an en-suite shower room, while the second bedroom enjoys its own dressing area with a walk-in wardrobe and is served by a separate bathroom.OutsideA sweeping driveway winds through the estate to a parking area where the apartment's two garages are located.Set within approximately 25 acres of private parkland, residents enjoy exclusive use of a communal swimming pool and tennis court.
