About two acres of land surround this home that comes with stables and a mews house. The six-bedroom, 556.9sq m (5,994sq ft) Victorian house has been renovated while keeping its traditional character. There are three reception rooms, one with bay window. The kitchen/breakfast room has an Aga island. An orangery overlooks a courtyard and has a sauna beside it. Upstairs are six bedrooms (one en suite) and a shower room, bathroom, study and studio. BER exempt.
Plus: Well-kept, handsome country pile with a house for guests attached.
Minus: The hot-press gobbles up quite a bit of space in the mews house bathroom.
