Description

Griffin House is a Grade II Listed William and Mary house dating back to the 15th century, with its original build believed to be from 1691 as indicated by the date stone. The house features a wealth of period details including open fireplaces, exposed timbers, oak mullion windows with leaded lights, salt niches, and flagstone floors. The property was restored sympathetically in the early 2000s, including an imaginative extension, re-wiring, and the reclaiming of original features.

The interior boasts oak panelling, wooden doors, and deep window boards, while the principal rooms enjoy natural light and pleasant outlooks over the gardens. The kitchen is practical and sociable, leading seamlessly into the gardens and an outdoor paved entertaining terrace. The property includes a triple garage with studio flat over, a charming traditional stone outbuilding, and a stunning outdoor natural pool with pontoon, as well as formal and informal reception areas and a spacious kitchen/breakfast/living room connecting seamlessly to the gardens.

The house is situated on approximately 1.2 acres of grounds, laid out predominantly to lawn, with mature planting and offering seclusion and views along the Swere valley.
