Pristine period home offers luxurious living
STUNNING GARDENS come with this exceptional home that dates back to the mid 1800s but has been carefully updated over years.
Stone pillars and electric gates front the long driveway with period lighting that leads to the four-bedroom house and over an acre of gardens.
Impressive at first sight, the Ashlar stone-fronted property has a paved patio, with steps leading down to an expanse of lawn fringed with trees.
The entrance hall shows off some elements of the period architecture present throughout the building, from deep skirting boards to a ceiling rose and coving, and there is walnut flooring with a spindle staircase, below which is a door to the basement with its barrelvaulted cellar.
Further doors lead to the kitchen with utility room, a living room and formal dining room that is also currently used as a music room.
The exceptionally large kitchen, flooded with natural light from double-glazed sash windows, flows through to a family living area that houses a stone fireplace with flagged hearth and a Stuv woodburning stove.
Hand painted shaker-style units and walnut fronted wall cupboards with concealed down-lighters line the kitchen, with Silestone worktops and a central island unit. There’s a Britannia range-style cooker with six burner gas hob and griddle, electric double ovens, an integrated Miele dishwasher and larder fridge, and a Liebherr larder freezer.
Sash windows with shutters in the living room have views across the valley, and a fireplace with marble surround houses a coal effect gas fire.
With similar style aspects, the formal dining room also hosts a feature fireplace.
An inner landing on the first floor takes you to two bedrooms, both with pleasant views and one with an en suite shower room. Another bathroom includes both bath and shower, with vanity unit. There’s an office too.
From the main landing are two further bedrooms, with additional dressing rooms that have fitted storage and under floor heating.
There are luxurious en suite bathroom and shower rooms, the bathroom with a Villeroy and Bosch bath and a large walk-in shower as part of its suite.
The property has a detached garden store, a double garage and plenty of parking space. Within the gardens is a timber glazed summer house.
