An elegant non-Listed Manor House, set in over 4 acres of mature gardens and grounds, with far-reaching rural views.
Originally the home of a 'John Denzel', Denzel Barton is believed to date back as the late 1500's, and has both Georgian and Victorian influences as well as 21st Century additions, creating an elegant home with plenty of character and an adaptable layout suitable for a large family, or those with a dependant relative.
Set in magnificent gardens and grounds, the stone building faces almost due south, offering far reaching rural views. Approached via a sweeping gravelled driveway, which leads to a generous parking and turning area beside a double garage. The front door, under a slate porch, opens to the reception hall, with staircase rising to the first floor.
The ground floor enjoys a substantial sitting room, sun room, dining room, kitchen breakfast room with pantry, a cloak room with shower room/wc and a utility room with door to the garden.
There is a further reception room on the first floor, four bedrooms, two of which are en suite, and a family bathroom. The second floor offers two further bedrooms, one of which has a cloakroom, and a further bathroom. Currently, there is a guest studio in the east wing of the house, which has independent access and could be converted to an annexe, if required, subject to the necessary consents.
Outside, the gardens are a testament to the current vendors near 30 year tenure, with sweeping lawns, mature borders and a selection of specimen trees and shrubs. To the side of the house is a pergola and outdoor heated swimming pool under a polytunnel shelter.
There are a series of outbuildings to the west of the house including a former piggery, former farm/storage building and log stores. Additional land, including an orchard and paddock flank the northern boundary, there is a separate road access. This area may be suitable for further development, subject to the necessary consents.
