Few properties measure up to being truly bespoke. By the Bridle is one of these. Constructed in 2006 to exacting standards using the finest materials including Leicestershire hand thrown bricks, Derbyshire stone mullioned English oak windows and detailing all set under a Welsh slate roof. Behind the impressive classical facade is an equally stunning interior with American walnut flooring in the hall, new carpeting throughout, Limestone flooring, a European oak staircase and solid oak doors, grand stone fireplaces and impressively spacious, light and well proportioned rooms. Top of the range fittings include Duravit sanitary ware, some by Philippe Starck and a Poggenpohl kitchen with granite surfaces and Siemens appliances. Arranged over three floors with underfloor heating on ground and first floor the accommodation offers flexibility and is as well suited to families as for entertaining in style. The lower ground floor features an air conditioned gymnasium, a large games room and a cinema room, a wine cellar and plenty of storage space. There is lapsed planning permission to create a swimming pool to the rear with access from this floor (Reference No. 14/5167M).

The ground floor includes a recessed entrance leading into an impressive reception hall with a cloakroom and w.c., a mahogany cloaks storage cupboard and the fine oak staircase. Double doors lead off to the drawing room to the left with its impressive stone fireplace and French doors to the rear terrace. Double doors open to the dining room with its bay to the front and a service door from the hall. The air conditioned orangery style family living room lies at the rear and adjoins the kitchen creating a superb day to day family space overlooking the wonderful gardens at the rear.
