MEDSTEAD GRANGE
Constructed in 2015, and refurbished from 2021, Medstead Grange is an immaculate Country House built and designed to the highest specification.

On entrance through private gates, a winding driveway rises through the farmland and woodland to a turning circle in front of the house. Met with far-reaching views across the land and beyond, the house offers privacy in an incredibly peaceful setting.

The accommodation extends over 12,615 sq ft over four floors and includes well-proportioned and impressive rooms, with beautiful outlooks over the views to the west and over the gardens and grounds to the south east.

On entrance is a striking view through the stair hall and dining room and out to the gardens beyond. Four formal reception rooms include the dining room, overlooking the gardens and pasture land beyond, the drawing room with dual aspect windows and Crittall doors leading out to the terrace and gardens, a living room which is also used as a study and the impressive stair hall. The stair hall features a beautiful cantilevered staircase.

At the heart of the house is a large open plan family kitchen with kitchen island, dining area and sitting room. There is also a back kitchen, utility room, larder, dog room and two cloakrooms, all of which are well designed and practical.

The first floor has four large bedrooms, each with a dressing room and ensuite, as well as an ensuite guest room. Each room has been beautifully designed and one of the most characterful bedrooms is of double height featuring timber beams, the walls hand painted with a wildlife scene.

The second floor has two large bedrooms with ensuites followed by a small bedroom or storage room and a charming dormitory with an inbuilt Swedish bed.

In the basement is an indoor swimming pool, shower room, meditation room, billiard room, cinema room and wine cellar.

A lift provides access to all four floors.
