B

n contrast to the period features, the house is very much set up to suit 21st Century living and has been fitted with a Leutron lighting system, underfloor heating, a projector with surround sound system and an integrated sound system throughout a number of rooms in the house. The kitchen is very much the heart of the home and has been fitted with painted units, granite work tops and integrated Miele appliances which include a double oven, coffee maker, induction hob, dishwasher and fridge/freezer – if that wasn’t enough, there is also a gas fired Aga. The five bedroom, five bathroom layout (of which four are ensuite) is ideally suited for a family. The master bedroom is particularly impressive with walk in wardrobe, en-suite bathroom and attractive semi-circular bay window which provides a view across the garden.

Double gates open onto a gravel driveway where there is parking for a number of cars. The south east facing, private gardens are simply stunning and it is clear that a huge amount of time and effort has gone into creating this magnificent space. Mostly laid to lawn, the garden is interspersed with a variety of well-establish flower beds, stone pathways and immaculately kept yew and box topiary. There is a wonderful loggia which is a perfect place for those who enjoy outside dining and entertaining. There is a stone built double garage with guest annexe above.
