Zaleha Mansion Zaleha Mansion has been beautifully designed combining classical looks and modern open-plan ideas of 21st century living. The rooms have been carefully arranged around the spectacular reception hall being triple height with a sky light and galleried landings. The emphasis throughout the house has specifically focused on fine proportions, high ceilings and in particular the design of the large Georgian sash windows which flood the house with natural light. The exteriors have been cleverly landscaped by the owners in order to take advantage of the private setting, with a long drive leading to a gravelled turning circle at the front of the house. The house has been built of local stone to exacting standards, which together with the landscaping has created a striking and most impressive country house.
