Description

Corton Denham House is a former rectory constructed primarily of local stone with ashlar dressings, rebuilt in 1750 with later additions. The house has a calm, classical symmetry with a beautifully composed west façade and features elegant proportions, expansive sash windows, and high ceilings. The interior includes a dual-aspect drawing room, a light-filled dining room, a refined library, and a generous kitchen with flagstone floors and an Aga.

The principal bedroom is on the first floor, and there are seven further bedrooms and three further bathrooms arranged across the first and second floors. The house has a secondary staircase, a large laundry room, and a storage room that offer the potential to reinstate a self-contained annexe. The house is surrounded by a large garden with various sections, including formal lawns, a walled kitchen garden, a water garden with a lake, a productive orchard, and a swimming pool area.
