This elegant and imposing Grade II listed villa is believed to
have been built around 1760 and was then added onto in the early
19th Century, including a stunning regency facade.
The accommodation is set over three floors with some wonderfully
proportioned rooms, with large sash windows on the first floors
providing a light and airy feel to the property. This is enhanced
by period detailing, exquisite modern touches, and features such as
fireplaces and the attractive staircase rising from the large
receptiondining hall.
The property lends itself to both cosy winter evenings and
summer outdoors living. It benefits from a wonderful south facing
outlook to the front from the Italianate terrace, with steps
leading down to a well enclosed pool and pool house.
This is a very special and unique property, and a viewing is
strongly recommended by the sole agents Cobb Farr.
