This three bedroom house will set you back £1,595,000.... But it does come with two self contained two-bedroom outbuildings, a gym, stables and over two acres of stunning gardens.
Occupying picturesque and beautifully landscaped gardens of 2.25 acres, Winter House is a stunning arrangement of versatile accommodation extending to 6567sqft, having been improved to the highest of standards and enjoying glorious views from every aspect.
Situated in a most secluded setting within Sherfield English overlooking farmland within the original grounds of Melchet Court, the buildings are centred upon the impressive main residence which has been sensitively modernised whilst designed in a traditional styling including gorgeous solid oak finishes and elegant open fireplaces.
Within the main house the delightful kitchen breakfast room is equipped with an extensive range of cream units and granite worktops hosting a central island with circular oak breakfast bar. The kitchen is beautifully presented with ample space for further dining and enjoys the focal point of a feature cream electric Aga.
The sitting room is elegant with a window overlooking the beautiful gardens which are accessed via double doors and the feature open
fireplace is within a brick surround and oak mantle. There is a raised dining area for more formal entertaining and exposed oak beams throughout.
The snug/family room has a period elegance of oak panelled walls and floorboards and the focal point of an impressive stone fireplace with cast iron grate.
A stunning oak staircase with picture window ascends to the first floor where there are three beautiful large bedrooms with exposed timbers and solid oak doors served by a family bathroom and luxurious ensuite facilities to the master.
Outside, the gardens are impeccably maintained with manicured rolling lawns, studded with trees, culminating in a gorgeous lake surrounded by associated pond flora, decked viewing area and impressive fountain. A recently laid elevated paviour patio spans the breadth
of the house and is a wonderful entertainment or relaxation venue.
Secondary to the principal house, accessed independently, is a delightful two bedroom cottage, originally believed to serve as the gate house to the manor and now providing additional dual occupancy or rental income.
Supplementing the living accommodation are two impressive triple garage buildings affording heated car showrooms, one with a luxurious
two bedroom maisonette adjoining, the other offering a suite of office and gym facilities.
The property is being marketed by Charles Powell.
