Dating back to the late 17th Century, this
handsome Grade II* period home has been painstakingly restored to
create a striking combination of elegant proportioned rooms with fine
interior design and state of the art modern conveniences. The lateral
configuration of accommodation, with 6,515 sq ft. Arranged over just
three storeys, provides a natural flow of space ideal for family living.
The dramatic entrance hall, striking principle reception rooms and
luxurious hand built kitchen allow for more formal entertaining; the
cinema room and snug are more informal, but pride of place must go to
the stunning music room, styled in a Moorish theme, that gives the house
something more than a "Wow" factor.
The spacious ground floor is
bathed in light with much of the rear of the house consisting of floor
to ceiling glazed doors and windows, thus allowing full enjoyment of the
landscaped rear garden. The gardens benefit from an irrigation system.
The upper floors are beautifully connected by an oak central turning staircase - a striking feature in its own right.
Upstairs,
the six bedrooms are well served by five luxurious bathrooms, but of
particular note is the extravagant master suite with bespoke fitted
dressing room and sumptuous bathroom.
The house is set back from the
street by a walled, landscaped front garden and the driveway is accessed
via remote-controlled gates. The property has the further benefit of a
double detached garage, for some an invaluable local asset.
Offering
state of the art wiring and communications; the house is wired to cat 6
throughout. The building is fully alarmed and uses contact points and
motion sensors.
