Set within a Grade B listed Georgian mansion, this two-bedroom ground-floor apartment combines period grandeur with substantial communal grounds. High ceilings, restored fireplaces and large timber-sash windows bring authentic character and abundant natural light. The apartment sits on an exclusive 4.5-acre plot with mature arboretum, walled south garden and private garage with electricity.
Internally the layout is flexible: a bright living room with grand fireplace, a well-equipped kitchen with adjoining dining/home-office space that could be closed off to form a third bedroom or study, and two generous double bedrooms. The bathroom has a white four-piece suite plus a separate corner shower run from the gas combi boiler, which delivers good water pressure.
This is a strong prospect for downsizers or those seeking a character home with generous outdoor space and secure parking. However, the Grade B listed status will restrict alterations and may complicate maintenance or refurbishment projects. Broadband speeds are reported slow — important if you work from home — and while the communal setting offers privacy and wildlife-rich gardens, some residents may find shared maintenance responsibilities and the historic fabric require ongoing care.
In short: a spacious, characterful apartment in a rare historic setting with private garage and vast grounds, suited to buyers who value period detail and are comfortable with listed-building constraints and potential upkeep.
