Whindale House is a beautifully appointed property with Victorian Origins dating back to 1830, which has been subject to a total rebuild and renovation to provide more than 4,000 square feet of stunning luxury accommodation. The property benefits from being unlisted and comprises attractive brick and rendered elevations outside while inside there is elegant styling combining traditional features with bespoke fittings and beautifully refined décor with a contemporary twist.

The main reception room is the 34ft drawing room at the rear of the property with its south and west-facing dual aspect, wooden flooring and fireplace fitted with a Jotul cast iron woodburning stove. There is also a comfortable sitting room, a formal dining room and an informal garden room with French doors opening onto the rear garden. The heart of the home is the 41ft open-plan family area, breakfast area and kitchen which runs from the front to the rear of the house and includes tiled flooring, Jotul cast iron woodburning stove,
decorative wall panelling, a fireplace with a stove, a roof lantern and French doors opening to the garden. The kitchen is a Vale kitchen design and has shaker style units, a large central island and a range cooker.

Upstairs, the spacious landing has a Juliet balcony overlooking the garden and countryside, while there are also four generously proportioned double bedrooms. Both the principal bedroom and second bedroom have built-in storage, with all four bedrooms including large en suite bathrooms.

The property is approached via a gravel carriage driveway, which dissects the immaculate front lawn and provides parking at the front and side of the house, as well as access to the double garage towards the rear. The garage provides plenty of storage space, while on its first floor there is a studio space for home working. The garden at the rear and to the south side of the house includes paved and gravel terracing, beautifully presented lawns bordered by mature trees and hedgerow.
