So much potential ! This handsome residence oozes importance and retains many period features. The impressive nature of this property is obvious from the outset with a stone pillared entrance and an amazing tree lined driveway front drive and back drive giving an entrance you couldn't built in a lifetime.

Impressive double fronted bay windows to the ground floor and a towering height across the three floors. The house is sat centrally within the landscaped gardens incorporating a water feature to the side and expansive gardens cocooned by trees at the front.

The house extends to around 4500 sq. ft and there is a further 2 bedroom cottage converted by the vendors and a large brick outbuilding offering further space and potential. This statement property will need full refurbishment / development and has potential to create further dwellings (subject to gaining any necessary consents).

The house is impressively set along a tree lined drive and is surrounded by 8.9 acres (3.6 ha) OTA, the perfect place to enjoy privacy and ideal for those with equestrian or agricultural type interests.

The front door opens into the entrance vestibule with an original tiled floor and part stained glass door opens into an impressive entrance hall. This is a fantastic space with high ceilings, deep skirtings, a plate rail and an attractive staircase which rises up to the first floor.

Either side of the entrance hall are two fabulous reception rooms with high ceilings, covings and mouldings. The lounge has bay window to the front of the property, the living room has a bay window to the front and side and also an impressive fireplace.

The kitchen has views out to the side of the property and includes a range of kitchen units, sink and double drainer and point for a washing machine. There is an integrated oven, hob and extractor (not in working order).

To the rear is a dining room / further reception room which has a door through to the conservatory.

The conservatory has views out to the side of the property. A ground floor bathroom and WC are found at the rear of the house together with steps down to a wine cellar.

The staircase rises up to the first floor space where there are five bedrooms. Three of the bedrooms have views out across the front gardens with the two main bedrooms having built in storage, one has a WC. The third and fourth bedrooms are positioned behind and have views out to the side. A family bathroom is also found on the first floor.

There is a room at the property currently used as an office but has potential to be used as a bedroom.

A further staircase rises up to the second floor space where there is plentiful further space which has previously been used as bedroom space. There are currently two bedrooms along with a family bathroom space.

In need of full renovation / redevelopment there is scope to create an impressive home to suit the purchaser.

A two bedrooms annex / cottage is found to the rear of the main house giving scope for multi-generational living or remodelling subject to gaining any necessary consents.

The cottages include an entrance hall, bathroom, lounge, kitchen and further bedroom on the ground floor with two further bedrooms on the first floor.

Beyond the annex and immediate outbuildings there is a large building that has previously had a kitchen style space and a WC and also offers plenty of storage (previously used as a games room) and stable type space. There is plenty of scope here for a purchaser to alter this building to suit them or remodel, subject to gaining any necessary consents.

Plenty of parking is found at the front and side of the property and there is an extensive garden area which is cocooned at the front with mature trees and a water feature. The property stands well in its plot, beyond the immediate garden area there is agricultural land and pond which the vendors believe has a natural spring. This area would make the property ideal for those with agricultural type interests. The land is currently down to pasture.
