Superb Country Property in an Ideal Location.

Property Description

Overview
This gorgeous stone property has been expertly and sympathetically restored, preserving its authentic period character while seamlessly integrating modern comforts. Impeccably presented throughout, it offers a rare combination of heritage, elegance, and contemporary refinement.
The current owners have brought this property back to life and are only reluctantly selling due to a change in personal circumstances.
The property is approached via a private lane that winds through open fields, leading to tall electric gates. Set well back from any road, it enjoys absolute tranquility, with nothing to disturb the peace but the gentle sounds of the countryside.
At the time of purchase, the house required a complete renovation, giving them the opportunity to redesign and restore it to the highest standards of craftsmanship.
Ground floor
The property is surrounded by wide, well-maintained terraces bordered by mature, flowering plants. The south-facing terrace has been beautifully landscaped to showcase the large in-ground swimming pool, creating an elegant outdoor entertaining space.
Inside, the house features a spacious living room with a striking original stone fireplace which is a true focal point of the home. A thick stone wall provides a natural separation for the elegant dining room.
The fully equipped kitchen, adjacent to the dining room, opens onto a large, covered terrace with built-in Bbq facilities, perfect for al fresco dining.
A practical laundry room adjoins the kitchen, along with a guest Wc and access to a service room housing the boiler and water filtration system.
A vast reception room with a double-height ceiling and large picture windows provides an impressive setting for gatherings.
Four beautifully appointed en suite bedrooms lead off this space, each with a private shower room including sink and Wc one also benefits from a bathtub.
First floor
Private First-Floor Suite


With ample accommodation for family and guests in the ground-floor guest wing, the owners have reserved the luxury of a completely private first floor. Accessed via a staircase from the living room, this 100 m² suite includes two spacious offices of approximately 20 m² each.
The first features a mezzanine balcony overlooking the great room, while the second serves as an antechamber to the magnificent private suite that spans the full length of the house.


Designed and created by the current owners, this stunning space offers a large bedroom with a soaring ceiling, beautifully crafted exposed rafters, a handsome stone fireplace with a fully functional wood burner, and elegant parquet flooring.
The en suite bathroom, partially enclosed by broad stone walls, features a luxurious freestanding roll-top bathtub, a generous walk-in shower, twin polished stone basins, and a private Wc alcove.


Grounds & Pool


The property is approached via a private lane that winds through open fields, leading to tall electric gates. Set well back from any road, it enjoys absolute tranquility, with nothing to disturb the peace but the gentle sounds of the countryside.


The gardens surrounding the house have been thoughtfully planted and developed over many years, resulting in beautifully landscaped grounds that frame the house, pool, and outbuildings in mature greenery.


A key feature of the property is its private well, which supplies all the water for the estate. A sophisticated filtration system ensures that the water is perfectly safe for domestic use.
Solar panels provide hot water, complemented during the winter months by a wood/oil-fired furnace.
The estate also includes a sturdy carport and a large, practical barn that serves as a workshop and storage space for gardening equipment.
Within the grounds, a small woodland provides ample firewood for heating, while an enclosed vegetable garden, orchard, and pond add to the property's charm and self-sufficiency.
There is also ample space to accommodate horses or other animals.
