Forming part of the Grade I listed building and set in fifty acres of gardens and grounds, this stunning furnished apartment offers grand accommodation.

Description

Shardeloes is a magnificent Grade I listed building of special architectural and historic interest set in around 50 acres of parkland grounds overlooking a lake and Misbourne valley on the edge of Amersham Old Town.

This is a most impressive ground floor apartment located off the grand entrance hall and is believed to be an original drawing room. Offering immense charm and elegance, the apartment has many fine examples of Robert Adam’s and James Wyatt’s work including handsome period fireplaces and ornate plaster work throughout.

The apartment is well planned with living and bedroom accommodation accessible from an attractive and welcoming internal entrance hall. The grand and imposing formal drawing room is a joy. Triple full height sash windows flood the room with natural light, bringing focus to the grand Adams fireplace and spectacular ornate wall and ceiling panelling.
Located behind the drawing room is the beautifully crafted bespoke kitchen comprising an extensive range of wall and base units with granite surfaces and matching wall tiles, freestanding range and built in appliances.
The principal bedroom is again beautifully proportioned, with a central Adams fireplace and twin full height sash windows. The en suite bathroom is well appointed and features a circular ‘porthole’ window.

There is an additional bedroom which in turn is serviced by a separate well appointed shower room with cloakroom.
