Description
Originally two cottages which were adjoined in the 1960's, this truly exceptional home is steeped in history offering superb family accommodation full of character.
The property comprises a traditional farmhouse style dining kitchen with island and gas AGA; perfect for home cooked meals and warming the entire room. The kitchen leads to a separate dining room with original panelling and open fireplace. A bright and spacious family room with wood burning stove and large sash and case windows overlooking the garden offers a central entertaining space and leads to the den, known as the 'Captain's Cabin'. This wonderfully unique space boasts incredible original ornate wooden panelling and original features from the ocean liner ‘SS Leviathan' as well as an open fireplace. Adjacent to the den lies a separate study which has also been created out of the original wood and contains features such as authentic oil lanterns from the ship.
The light filled drawing room with beautiful wall to wall astragal windows, original open fireplace and wood flooring overlooks the lawn, which was once used as a tennis court, and the delightful lily-pond located to the side of the house. Direct access to the peaceful patio area and gardens beyond can be gained from the drawing room.
There is a family bathroom, useful wet room and four well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom located on the ground floor benefits from fitted wardrobes and large South facing windows to allowing light to flood the room. Located to the side of the house is an external laundry room. A coal and woodshed offers extra storage.
The property is accessed through a private gated driveway hidden amongst the mature surrounding trees. To the end of the driveway is a turning circle and a large Nissen hut offering a large and flexible space. This has been used as a gym, an artroom and a workroom.
This remarkable, secluded property offers potential purchasers a unique refurbishment opportunity, with the added option to develop the garden grounds subject to gaining the necessary planning consents.
