4 5 6 Description This impressive home was bespoke built in an Arts and Crafts style in 1908 and is typical of the larger and most prestigious village houses. Where Fieldhead excels is in its superb restoration in a contemporary style creating a versatile home which should meet the requirements of the most fastidious of buyers.

Both the original and contemporary finishes are exquisite, with wonderful natural woodwork, herringbone maple woodblock floors to the principal rooms and bespoke furniture and doors throughout. This is a house which combines entertaining space comfortably alongside family living.

Lots of natural light floods the main reception areas and clever redesign has created a modern home wrapped within a period exterior, yet with the most elegant and unique period features retained and enhanced.

One of the best virtues of a family home is flexibility and Fieldhead is no exception. The accommodation lends itself to accommodating a nanny or staff in their own section of the house, to have a nursery and playrooms and is equally well suited to those with teenagers, providing their own space away from the day to day living areas for entertaining friends.

This blend of entertaining space and family living is a rare combination. Many rooms lend themselves to multiple uses as need dictates.

There is the opportunity to create consulting rooms within the existing layout, with a dedicated entrance away from the main reception hall. Space for a home office and business reception area.
