THE BURRELLS

INTRODUCTION A truly exceptional landmark ten bedroom period detached residence built around 1920, delivering refined and elegant country living, superb accommodation and a desirable Eden Valley location. A short drive from the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales National Park, this house both offers privacy and has easy access to nearby main transport links, in addition to proximity to the exceptional surrounding countryside. The property is approached by a long private driveway, accessed through electric gates. There is ample parking within the grounds and an oak framed car garage at the rear. The setting includes over two acres of private landscaped lawned gardens with a summerhouse and garden room and formal ornamental pond with a fountain. Surrounded by trees and woodland, this magnificent family home offers outstanding and flexible living space with a combination of period features and luxurious contemporary fittings. There is the impressive grand sweeping oak staircase, panelled doors, wall panelling and parquet flooring in the entrance hallway, in addition to stained glass feature windows, stone fireplaces and cornicing. Family and entertaining rooms are in abundance, at the heart of which are the fabulous ‘living’ kitchen which extends to 33 feet and the spectacular luxury garden room built within the garden itself - which provides a true living room in the outdoors. There are ten bedrooms with a magnificent master suite, three with ensuite facilities and the remainder served by two further house bathrooms. Further amenities in the grounds include lounging and alfresco dining areas, vegetable plot and greenhouse, stable block, workshop, croquet lawn and a play area for children. So, a gorgeous period house within its’ own grounds and in a beautiful and accessible location, with a unique combination of unrivalled accommodation which is presented to a enviable standard, wonderful outside entertaining and family space, garaging and parking. In short, a very rare opportunity.
