Description A beautifully presented period home that offers wonderful charm and character, the earliest part of which dates from the fifteenth century and ranges in age all the way up to the present day. This Grade II listed home was mentioned by Sir Nikolaus Pevsner the German, later British, art scholar. The current accommodation has been cleverly configured by the current owners to provide substantial and adaptable accommodation dependant on a family’s needs. The oldest wing of the house contains the formal reception areas including the drawing and family rooms whilst the newest wing features the family areas such as the kitchen/breakfast room, office and utility room. The bespoke, hand painted wooden kitchen features a modern four oven Aga and three Miele electric ovens. Two additional bedrooms and a family bathroom can also be accessed from this end of the house by their own staircase. Upstairs, the oldest part of the house to the west, offers three bedrooms with the master bedroom having a hand made walk through dressing room and en suite bathroom. This part of the house also has a cellar and a library on the second floor. Outside the leisure complex comprises an indoor oak framed swimming pool with bi folding doors which open along the entire length of the pool onto the terrace, with tennis court opposite. A plant room, two changing rooms and a kitchen make up the rest of the complex. Within the grounds there is detached garaging providing for four cars with a useful storage room above. In addition, an original flint granary has been converted to provide a lovely outdoor party room ideal for summer parties and BBQs. The gardens, which extend to around 1.5 acres, feature established planting throughout, a fruit orchard and a topiary courtyard. To the front of the property are fully stocked herbaceous borders bounded by a beautiful old brick wall and yew hedging. A dovecote dating from 1700 provides a wonderful focal point throughout the gardens. Adjoining the gardens are a range of disused cart lodges which could be reconfigured subject to planning permission.
