Majestic Mansion With Parkland In..

Hidden in the centre of the village is this majestic period property offering in excess of 650m2 of habitable space, comprising several grand entertaining rooms, 8 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, set in an enchanting parkland of almost 5000m2, with swimming pool, garage and outbuildings.
Over the last few years, this exceptional property has undergone substantial internal renovation to the ground and first floors, sympathetic to its original character and preserving many original features. At one end, the entrance hall leads to a vast formal salon with a central marble fireplace, 3 sets of French doors and glass sliding doors onto the garden. There is also a smaller cosy sitting room at this end. Further along the main hall is a formal dining room, whilst the spacious kitchen and a utility room are at the other end of the hall.
The first floor is classic in its layout, with rooms off on either side of a massive through hall. There are 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms on this floor. The top floor is completely unmodernised and currently has a huge hall, 4 bedrooms and a bathroom.
Exceptionally for a property in the centre of a village, it has an immense, enclosed parkland encircling it, giving it an air of tranquility and seclusion. The free form swimming pool is south facing and up to 3m deep. Various outbuildings include an open sided barn and a 2 storey garage, both of which have potential for further development.
With much of the major refurbishment already undertaken on the ground and first floors, the remaining works are mostly cosmetic. There is, however, more substantial work to be undertaken on the top floor.
The potential of this property is tremendous. As it stands, this impressive property is already habitable, but with some further development, it would make an extraordinary home or unique boutique Bed & Breakfast/small hotel in a private and tranquil setting.
