House For Sale £2,450,000
A CHARMING WELL PRESENTED MANOR HOUSE SET IN MATURE GROUNDS AND IDEALLY SUITED FOR MULTI GENERATIONAL LIVING WITH TWO ONE BEDROOM APARTMENTS, LEISURE BARN AND GENEROUS GARAGING FACILITIES
Launched to the market for the first time in 26 years, Greys Manor enjoys a prominent yet private position lying on the edge of the village and well protected by the mature garden and grounds that run with it. Under the watchful eye of the current owners the Manor has been sympathetically extended and modernised and offers well appointed accommodation suitable for modern 21st century living.
Complementing the Manor are the excellent range of stone outbuildings, some conversions and others constructed in 2009. The end result provides for two well appointed and self contained one bedroomed apartments, along with stunning vaulted barn overlooking a large pond and initially designed to accommodate an indoor swimming pool. At present it is sub divided and provides excellent gym/party barn with sauna and changing room along with separate oversized double garage.
The Manor is approached over a sweeping drive lined by trees and the mature grounds are a pure delight and offer the perfect environment to unwind from the stresses of modern life and entertain in. The property is certainly well worth a visit to fully appreciate all on offer.
Panelled front door opens into tiled reception hall with rooms radiating off and inner hall leading through to the oak floored dining room with stone fireplace. Beyond, steps rise up to the stunning vaulted sitting room with flagstone floor and enjoying a double aspect with French doors opening onto outdoor tiered seating terrace. The focal point of the room is a stone fireplace housing a wood burner and in the far corner of the room is an original well that is now covered with glazed top and lit.
The inner hall also provides access to study, cellar ideally suited for the laying down of wine and home office with stone inglenook fireplace and oak floored garden room overlooking and with direct access onto the paved entertaining terrace.
The kitchen/breakfast room enjoys a double aspect with slate floor. The kitchen units are limed oak with matching central island unit that doubles up as a breakfast bar. Integral appliances include Smeg stainless steel range cooker with six ring gas hob, Smeg dishwasher, Hisense fridge/freezer and Russell Hobbs microwave. A wood burner sits within the stone inglenook fireplace and in the corner of the kitchen a door reveals the utility/boiler room with corner shower.
