Today, one finds a beautiful family home of substantial proportions offering a versatile layout with annexe and staff quarters, an impressive swimming pool complex, and quite unrivalled living accommodation, in all approaching some 9,000 sq'.

The particularly bright and spacious rooms are an absolute joy and whilst this is a home of truly impressive proportions, it is also a practical, welcoming family home.

One enters through a large arched front doorway into a beautiful reception hallway with plaster rib vaulted ceiling leading into a quite stunning Dining Hall. From here doors lead to the principal reception rooms, the sitting room and drawing room, both of which are well proportioned and enjoy far reaching views over the parkland gardens. The kitchen/breakfast room is the hub of the home and has been bespoke fitted and designed with high end appliances and fitments to offer both a wonderful environment for the keen cook but also a room that draws and caters for family and friends to congregate in. French doors and windows open into the gardens and allow light to flood in. A glazed garden lobby links the utility room, the games room, a shower/cloakroom, the annexe and the swimming pool complex to the main house. The annexe provides two generous bedrooms, a bathroom and large open plan living space, ideal for a family member or for staff/office accommodation. The swimming pool complex is particularly impressive with large, heated pool and doors opening onto the terrace and gardens. On the first floor, off the generous landing, one finds the principal bedroom suite that overlooks the gardens and surrounding countryside. There are three further en suite bedrooms and access to a roof terrace.

On the top floor are two double bedrooms and a bathroom believed to have once been staff accommodation.

This property has 41.23 acres of land.

Outside

The grounds are particularly impressive and extend to around 42 acres in all. The formal gardens are meticulously cared for with paved terraces adjoining the property beyond which are rolling lawns, well stocked borders and numerous mature and specimen trees. Beyond the formal gardens are paddocks and extensive woodland. In addition is a hard tennis court, in need of some tlc and a stable block.

Approached at the front through wrought iron gates a long driveway leads up in front of the house providing extensive parking and leading to the garaging.
