Our Summary
- Considerable scope to add more accommodation
- An extraordinary opportunity to acquire the East Wing and majority of the South Wing of an historically significant, Grade I listed family home, offering substantial scope for further enhancement within its existing footprint
- The South Wing presents potential for the creation of an additional suite, home office, or ancillary accommodation, accessed via the Jacobean staircase
- With extensive fenestration (eight windows) throughout this level, there is considerable scope for new owners to imaginatively transform this substantial area
- The current owners have utilised a portion of the southern end as a den and office, and it lends itself perfectly to the creation of three large double bedrooms, subject to any necessary consents
- The property also benefits from a double garage, further outbuildings, glasshouses (requiring some renovation), a dedicated vegetable garden, and a convenient rear access via a five-bar gate for garden equipment and machinery
