Description of property
There are 10 en-suite bedrooms in this stunning 19th Century brick built country house with over 720m2 of living space which is accessed down two separate tree lined driveways. In front of the two houses, there a huge enclosed gravelled courtyard with a fountain and a large open terrace with a further covered and shaded cloistered terrace to the side leading down to the chapel.
At the back of the houses are found the formal gardens which have been created over the last ten years in a classical style. A long walkway lined with shrubs and trees on either side leads to ornamental statues with access to rose gardens, lawns and landscaped gardens with an irrigation system and the recently renovated swimming pool with its 15-metre long pool surrounded by an enormous walled terrace with a large pool house and views to the side over the park.
The grounds include a lake fed by both a spring and roof water, a wild flower meadow as well as pastures, arable land and woodland with a number of tracks around the estate.
The 19th century brick built house (500m2) is classically proportioned and exquisitely decorated. It comprises an entrance hall, a fully equipped kitchen/breakfast room with range cooker and large island unit with black granite tops, a separate dining room, a drawing room, library/second reception room, a study and a music room/third reception room on the ground floor, four en-suite bedrooms in the main part of the house, three of which have dressing rooms, and two further en-suite bedrooms in the annexe to the side.
There is an adjoining four bedroom guest house to the side (170m2) with a large open-plan kitchen/living room with another range cooker and fitted units with an island as well as a shaded terrace overlooking the parkland with as balcony over. The first floor has four en-suite bedrooms, two of which have access to the first floor balcony and there is also an access back to the main house on the first floor.
On the other side of the house, there is a small studio (58m2) with its own shower room, a huge 300 m2 stone barn with a concrete floor, a separate workshop, further storage areas, covered terraces and a chapel (25m2) that completes the buildings around the central enclosed and gravelled courtyard. A 140m2 detached garage block is adjacent to this area.
Both houses and the annexe are centrally heated with either underfloor heating or radiators and there is internet access to most rooms.
Overall, this is a magnificent estate that must be seen to appreciate the quality of craftsmanship in the both the houses and the grounds, as well as its setting in the landscape.
