House For Sale £1,850,000
An idyllic five bedroom house in a highly exclusive area set within spacious grounds.
Description
Lychwood House was built in the 1980s on the site of the former tennis court which was at the time within the grounds of the neighbouring Anthony’s Close.
The house has never been on the open market before and the idyllic property has been architecturally designed and constructed by the owners using rare and valuable reclaimed building materials and contains a number of charming features such as bespoke hardwood doors and windows, York stone flags internally and externally along with exposed pine beams and further features.
The property is approached via a private driveway which leads to a parking area in front of the garage and a path which leads up to the house and beautiful Lychgate entrance/porch area.
The ground floor comprises a large hallway, attractive split drawing room with feature log burning stove in the centre and office at the other side. The kitchen is a real feature of the house and it was designed in a style that was ahead of its time to create an open plan feel with central aga within an exposed brick chimney breast partitioning the kitchen from the dining area. Further accommodation includes a boot room/cloakroom, pantry, storage further and an additional cloakroom.
The first floor has a large landing space with library, five double bedrooms and two recently refurbished bathrooms.
