Dating from the 1870s but recently refurbished, Shuttington House is a substantial detached family home set in about 1.5 acres with further land available by negotiation. The house extends to around 5,700 sqft across three storeys and offers flexible living with six to seven bedrooms, four reception rooms and a large open-plan kitchen/diner/family room under a lantern rooflight. Modern comforts include underfloor heating, an air-source heat pump and an eight-person passenger lift, making the property accessible and energy-conscious for its size.
Interior spaces combine period detail and contemporary finishes: a grand Minton-tiled reception hall, formal drawing room with marble surround and log burner, conservatory and a bespoke shaker kitchen with island and integrated appliances. The first- and second-floor landings provide sunny seating areas and gallery views; principal bedrooms include fitted wardrobes and en-suite bathrooms. Outbuildings include a detached garage/former coach house with two rooms above that could be adapted subject to planning consent.
Outside, the grounds are a standout feature — large lawns, mature specimen trees (including redwoods), vegetable patches and fruit trees provide a private, rural setting with substantial parking on a gravel driveway. There is opportunity for further development or conversion on the plot and outbuildings, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
Points to note: the property carries quite expensive council tax and sits in an affluent, rural village with average local crime and mobile signal. While recently renovated, further development or conversions will require planning approval. The main fuel is electricity, supplemented by an air-source heat pump and underfloor heating.
