A family home with excellent potential for paying guests if desired.

The high walls and gates ensure complete privacy within the grounds and the ornate features of this character home are both appealing to the eye as well as being in excellent condition. The period stained glass conservatory provides the formal street side entrance leading to hall with impressive staircase leading up to the 2 further floors as well as access to the basement leisure complex. The "professional" kitchen is well equipped, light and airy with a charming "bistro" style breakfast area as well as direct access to the dining room. Across the hallway is the lounge with large double doors which draw back to provide an impressive through room linking in the formal dining hall, this leads into the billiard room with it's views over the pool and park. Oak parquet flooring and high ceilings throughout this home give an indication of the quality construction and materials used at the time and today provide those character features that give homes like this one the standing they deserve.

The park, that surrounds the house, is well established and very relaxing, the signed stag statue over the fish pond reminds those within that it is not far from one of the regions largest oak forests with over 270km of walks and paths. The former guardian's house could easily be reconverted to proved independent accommodation if required, as well as the garage.
