Description
A delightful family house, listed
Grade II and providing both elegant
and enjoyable accommodation.
A pair of ball finial topped stone
gate piers with ornate iron gate and
a neighbouring gravel drive front
the village lane. The house, built
of honey coloured ashlar stone
is a combination of the original
17th century manor which was
much altered in the 18th century
and remodelled in the mid
twentieth century to provide the
appealing house we have today.

The garden facade overlooks
the River Avon and is a classical
arrangement of fine Venetian
sash windows and central half
glazed door bordered by Tuscan
columns and a pedimented roof
line. The front garden has parterres
bordering the flagstone path
which leads to the large panelled
front door. On entering the overall
appeal of the house is immediately
apparent, with historic architectural
features complimented by
stylish contemporary design and
decoration. Large sash windows
provide light and views of both The
River Avon and the Kennet and Avon
Canal with countryside beyond.

The spacious reception hall opens
into the large drawing room as well
as the kitchen/breakfast room, the
dining room and the cloakroom.
The drawing room has a glazed door
to the garden, panelling to dado
height and ornate cornice, ceiling
moulding and carved wooden
fireplace. An arched opening leads
to the garden room with glazed
elevation onto the garden and roof
lantern above. The dining room
has a glazed door to the front of the
house and bespoke bookshelves

and cupboards fitted to three walls.
The hub of the house is the kitchen
(bordered by the drawing room,
dining room, and utility/boot
room) with its stunning American
walnut wall and floor cabinets with
larder cupboard and central island
unit – topped by extensive granite
worktops. Equipment includes
Miele electric conventional and
microwave ovens and electric Aga.
The utility/boot room houses the
gas fired boilers and doors to both
the front and rear gardens. On the
first floor the landing serves the
principal bedroom with its fine
ceiling cornice, pretty window
seats and luxury ensuite bathroom.
There are two further bedrooms
and a family bathroom on this
floor and the second floor provides
two further bedrooms and a
further bathroom.

The lower ground floor which can
be accessed from the reception hall
or the garden provides valuable
additional living space with a large
home office (presently arranged
as a gym), a sitting room and an
undercroft onto the garden.
In addition to the main house and
approached from the gravel drive
there is a one bedroom annexe
with courtyard garden and a large
garage with workshop, store and
a cloakroom.
