Set in approximately 1.4 acres of private, parkland-style grounds, this principal wing of a Grade II manor offers over 5,600 sq ft of period living across four floors. The house retains strong historic character — high ceilings, ornate cornicing, marble floors, sash windows and a 32ft drawing room — while providing practical family spaces including a kitchen/family room, breakfast room, study, utility and cloakroom. An office/studio on the upper level could convert to an au pair or guest suite.
The gated approach and sweeping shared driveway lead to substantial parking and a double garage. Outside there is a secluded sun terrace and extensive mature gardens that provide privacy and scope for outdoor living, play and formal landscaping. Broadband is fast and the property sits within an affluent, largely rural setting with good local schools and nearby rail links to central London.
Important practical points: the house is Grade II listed which will restrict external and internal alterations and may add cost and delay to works. Tenure is share of freehold with approximately 900 years remaining on the lease. Council tax is high (Band G) and the site is part of a shared approach/parkland arrangement which carries communal responsibilities. The property is presented well but offers scope to modernise and personalise depending on requirements.
This is best suited to buyers seeking a substantial, characterful family residence or an executive household wanting privacy and historic provenance in a semi-rural setting. Investors should note the listing constraints and communal arrangements before committing to change-of-use or large-scale refurbishment.
