an elegant detached victorian country residence offering just under 4,000 sq. ft of versatile accommodation, set within mature walled gardens and a small paddock.

The Property

Nestled in a sought-after village location, this impressive Grade II listed detached home blends period character with contemporary comfort. Set within approximately half an acre of established grounds, the property enjoys private, mature gardens and a gently sloping paddock to the rear. Extending to just under 4,000 sq. ft across three floors, the accommodation provides generous and well-balanced living space, ideal for family life and entertaining. Recent enhancements include a comprehensive rewiring, installation of a new heating system and boiler (2022), three stylish bathrooms added during 2022–2023, and full internal redecoration throughout, maintaining the home’s original charm. The welcoming entrance hall, featuring a classic tessellated tiled floor, leads to a striking 29’10” drawing room, originally designed as two separate reception rooms, now offering an expansive and flexible living space. A separate formal dining/sitting room, and a country-style kitchen with Aga create further versatile reception areas, complemented by a light-filled garden room with underfloor heating that provides a seamless connection to the garden. Additional practical spaces include a utility, cellar, store and an external access to the lower courtyard and bin store. On the first floor, three well-proportioned bedrooms await, including the principal bedroom and a further bedroom both enjoying superb frontaspect views across the valley. The principal suite benefits from an en-suite shower room, while the secondary bedroom boasts a dressing area, ensuite facilities, and a private door leading directly down to the parking area — perfect for guests, live-in staff, or older children. A family bathroom completes this level. The top floor comprises three additional bedrooms, two of which also face front and enjoy stunning valley views, alongside a further family bathroom.

Outside

The grounds, extending to just over half an acre, offer an excellent balance between family accommodation and outdoor space. The private, L-shaped, level gardens wrap around two sides of the house and are mainly laid to lawn, bordered by attractively planted wide beds. Enclosed by handsome red-brick walls, these formal gardens provide shelter and character. The far-reaching valley views are wonderful. There are two entrances. Beyond the far side of the house, a parking area and double carport provide practical access. From here, three sets of steps lead in different directions: down to the side garden, down to the rear ‘everyday’ entrance, and up to the first-floor accommodation. A second entrance, via double wooden gates, offers pedestrian access to the formal front of the house. Below the main garden, external steps and a red-brick retaining wall lead down to a small paddock. This area features mature trees, a five-bar gate, a pedestrian gate at the bottom, and a charming period outbuilding at the top. It’s an ideal space for children to play, for those looking to keep hens, or to enjoy a rural lifestyle. The views throughout the property are exceptional.
