Set within about 5.24 acres of landscaped grounds, this Tudor Revival country house combines substantial period proportions with sympathetic modern extensions. The principal reception rooms are expansive and light, arranged around a central entrance and dining hall, with a kitchen/breakfast room flowing to a morning room and separate utility and wine rooms. Extensive private grounds include a courtyard with swimming pool, AstroTurf tennis court, lakes, a stream and a brick garden/machinery store. Planning permission exists for a detached outbuilding or garden room.
Accommodation is arranged over generous rooms including four double bedrooms (three en suite), two principal bedrooms with dressing rooms, a gym with shower room and a first-floor terrace. The property offers notable privacy and southerly-facing gardens, with elevated views across the surrounding agricultural landscape. Broadband speeds are fast and the area is affluent with very low local crime.
Buyers should note material running and fabric factors: the main heating is oil-fired boiler and radiators, the construction is solid brick assumed without insulation, and the house pre-dates 1900. These realities may mean higher ongoing energy and maintenance costs and potential refurbishment to modern standards. Council tax is very expensive (Band H). Flood risk is reported as none.
This home will suit purchasers seeking a large, characterful family estate or an executive private retreat with scope for updating and personalised improvements. The substantial plot and existing permissions offer potential for bespoke ancillary buildings or garden enhancements, balanced against the upkeep of a historic, sizeable property.
