House For Sale £1,475,000
This handsome yet cosy property cleverly combines its wealth of period features with the luxury of contemporary modern living to create a haven of relaxation.
On entering the affectionately named Tammers the light, bright reception hall, is welcoming with doors radiating off to the principal reception rooms. You cannot help but feel this houses' innate personality and one is instantly transported to a time of elegance. The entire house resonates with an air of friendly, undemanding, class.
The stunning drawing room with high ceilings and a dual aspect is impeccably well appointed.
The formal dining room can be accessed from the main reception hall and the inner hall. This dual aspect room is light and airy with three large shuttered sash windows enjoying views over the gardens. The red brick fireplace with a large in set log burning stove creates a cosy ambiance for winter dinner parties or family dining.
The snug/study is an elegant and inspiring space. One can imagine Sir Robert Peel, sat in front of the window, overlooking the garden catching up on his correspondence.
The remarkable family room, converted from the Old Bakery to this modern, relaxing space that fuses effortlessly with the architecture and character of the main house. A door leads down to the well-maintained cellar with workshop and wine store. A large apex roof light and two sets of bi-fold doors flood this space with natural light. There are wonderful views of the garden to be enjoyed and opening this space to outdoors truly invites the garden inside during those lovely summer months. The double height ceiling with beams and red brick gable ends create a true sense of upward space. There is a feature log burning stove creating a cosy feel in the winter months.
The magnificent kitchen is fitted with bespoke, hand painted cabinetry. Wall and floor mounted units are complimented with dark granite work surfaces and the central island houses the induction hob and further storage. The solid, pale wooden countertop adds to the lightness of the space and really works in unison with the striking, pillar box red, four oven Aga. This fabulous room with its contemporary yet classical feel also has the benefit of a range of integrated appliances. Two windows and glass panelled French doors provide superb views and access out to the private courtyard. Raised planted beds makes this a perfect location for a kitchen garden.
A turning staircase from the inner hall, next to the snug lead up to the first-floor landing area where four of the five bedrooms are located. There is a lovely arched window over the stairs providing natural light.
The sumptuous principal bedroom with painted panelled walls is a large and relaxing space. Two sash windows provide lovely views of the garden. The fully tiled and well fitted en suite shower room also provides wonderful views of the gardens.
The large family bathroom is in-keeping with the style of the house and is delightful. There is a panelled bath and separate shower.
The servants or back staircase rises from the inner hall. A further flight of stairs from the landing area rise to the second floor where the most amazing beamed ceiling can be enjoyed. A roof light over the turning wooden staircase provides the feeling of climbing to the top of the house.
The sitting room is very light with two sky lights and a feature low level window. This is a welcoming, relaxing space with a feature log burning stove and the perfect spot for a hobby/crafts corner.
The games room is sublime. Currently with a full-size snooker table and light fittings reminiscent of the 1930's gentleman's club one can well imagine enjoying brandy and cigars in this superb space.
Tammers is an absolute gem and really needs to be seen and “felt” to be appreciated. **Please refer to the brochure for full property details**
