THE PROPERTY

Set at the end of an extensive sweeping driveway within a breathtaking position on a mixed plot of 4.7 acres (stls).

All the principle rooms offer wonderful views across the formal grounds and or the surrounding paddocks which protect them. The entrance to the South wing of the house gives access to a laundry room and ground floor cloakroom. A substantial pantry is accessed from the adjoining bespoke farmhouse style kitchen by Poise interiors of Ingatestone with central island, beautiful exposed brick inglenook with electric AGA inset and doorway opening onto the rear courtyard garden. Stepping up from the kitchen is a lovely breakfast room which looks onto the front of the house also accessed from the striking front entrance hall with French oak flooring and hand-crafted staircase leading to the first-floor bedrooms. The dual aspect morning room as you would expect benefits from an Easterly aspect, and exposed brick fireplace. A small study dissects the morning room and stunning South West facing dining room with another inglenook housing a wood burning stove. The impressive drawing room sits in the center of the property with lovely exposed timbers, two large sash windows enjoying views of the South facing rear gardens, solid wood flooring and inglenook with open fire.

The main stairwell serves the remaining four double bedrooms all of which enjoy lovely views and share both a family bathroom with separate shower and indeed another family shower room. A charming outbuilding/Dutch style barn offers a fantastic cinema room and adjoining 6th double bedroom. We understand that planning permission had previously been obtained for annexed accommodation.

OUTSIDE

Externally the secluded and private plot offers well considered landscaping to the formal gardens, most notably to the rear which also enjoys a charming walled courtyard. Extensive post & rail paddocks offer fantastic equestrian potential. The grounds also include an all-weather tennis court and two large ponds to the Eastern boundary.

The extensive Barns situated in front of a large hard standing yard/courtyard adjacent to the main house, planning permission has been granted to create two separate dwellings. Barn 1 would offer circa 3,500 sq ft of living space over two floors. Barn 2 would offer 1,270 sq ft of living space over two floors. They could be accessed via a separate driveway and both enjoy their own private plots if required. If not, then there is the potential to create a substantial annexe or leisure complex ancillary to the main house (stpp).

A further detached outbuilding, thought to be the former Brew House is currently utilized for garden storage.
