House For Sale £1,000,000
A rare opportunity to acquire a former
headmasters house that has been modernised by
the present owners to create an excellent example
of a charming family home that successfully blends
period features with modern-day living. The house
is set within mature gardens that provide a high
degree of seclusion. In addition to the main house,
office space above the double garage is ideal for
those seeking to work from home. The beautifully
presented accommodation ranges over two floors
and the character features include excellent ceiling
heights, original fireplaces in many of the rooms,
sash windows, moulded cornicing, ceiling roses and stripped wooden floors, doors, architraves and
skirtings.
The house benefits from three reception rooms:
the elegant sitting room boasting a large bay
window, a marble fireplace and double doors
opening out to a secluded patio area, the spacious
dining room, also with a large bay window and a
period fireplace, and a family room, which could
be utilised as a fifth bedroom if required. The Mark
Wilkinson kitchen is fitted with a range of units, a
central island with a granite worksurface,
and appliances. The adjoining boot room provides
additional kitchen space with further appliances,
units, and a ceramic sink, and there is also a
useful utility area, store room and a cloakroom.
The first floor is arranged to provide four double
bedrooms, all with fireplaces, a modern family
bathroom, a shower room and a cloakroom.
The gardens are a key feature of the property and
are stocked with a wide variety of flowering plants,
shrubs and trees to create 'year round' interest. To
the front, an attractive tiled pathway leads through
the garden to the entrance of the house and, in
addition to the double garage, a gravelled
driveway provides off-road parking. The gardens
are principally laid to lawn and incorporate areas
designed for relaxation and 'al fresco' dining.
Bagshot is conveniently located for access to the
motorway network and Heathrow Airport, while
private aviation facilities are available at
Farnborough and Fairoaks Airfields. A Waitrose
store and Bagshot High Street are both within
striking distance whilst the historic towns of
Guildford and Windsor, both with thriving High
Streets, offer a wider range of amenities.
Some of the best known golf courses in the world
may be found in the area, notably Wentworth and
Sunningdale. There are excellent spa facilities at
Pennyhill Park, Coworth Park, Wentworth,
Berystede and Foxhills, and many local riding
schools and stables for those with equestrian
interests. Attractions for all of the family include
Windsor Castle, Legoland, Thorpe Park, Windsor
Great Park, Virginia Water Lake and Savill Garden.
Pleasant walks and off-road cycling are available at
the nearby Bagshot Heath and Swinley Forest.
