Description
The Mount is a grand period property spanning 7,500 square feet across three levels, with parts dating back to the 16th century and a late 19th-century extension featuring "Tudor revival" architectural elements, including a bell tower. The property has 12 bedrooms, including four on the second floor, as well as three bathrooms and a small cellar. The ground floor features a 600 sq.ft drawing room, a formal dining room with a feature fireplace, and a cosy informal sitting room with a large open fire.
The house also includes a greenhouse, outdoor swimming pool, triple garage and store, and a few dilapidated outbuildings with potential for restoration or replacement. The beautifully landscaped formal gardens, designed in the late 1800s, feature a large lawn, Italian-style sunken garden, ornamental pond, and several notable specimen trees. The property is situated on a 3.5 acre plot with a long gravel drive, flanked by woods, leading to a parking area beside the house.
