A grand and historic country residence in an Idyllic lakeside setting.
Loxwood Hall East comprises the principal portion of a beautiful country house, offering a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial and elegant home steeped in history, The original Hall dates back to 1701 with additions in the Victorian period, creating the house we see today. Benefiting from the main original entrance and grand staircase, this remarkable home blends a wealth of architectural features with modern comforts, all set within an enchanting rural landscape overlooking private gardens and a stunning lake, set within just under 3 acres.
Upon entering through the original front door, there is a generous entrance lobby that flows into a spacious reception hall. There is a private and cosy study with an open fireplace, ideal for quiet work or reading. To the rear, the heart of the home is a beautifully appointed kitchen featuring a large AGA, induction hob, ample cabinetry, and wonderful views over the gardens and lake. From the rear hallway, glazed doors open onto an expansive terrace, perfect for entertaining and enjoying the stunning grounds.
The principal reception rooms are of exceptional scale and character. The elegant sitting room, adorned with fine plasterwork ceilings, leads seamlessly into a stunning drawing room. Here, grand bay windows frame breathtaking views across the grounds. This light-filled space is ideal for both entertaining and relaxed family living, with an open fire creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The ground floor has a natural flow, with a laundry room, cloakroom, and a secondary entrance, all connected by an inner hallway that loops back to the main hall.
Upstairs, the principal suite enjoys garden and lake views, and features a well-designed dressing area with generous storage and a luxurious en suite with a freestanding bath and walk-in shower. A second substantial bedroom boasts a large bay window and an impressive en suite. Three additional bedrooms, two with en suites and one, currently used as an additional study and served by a separate bathroom, offer flexible accommodation for family or guests. The charming top floor includes two further bedrooms, a shower room, cloakroom, and a vast multi-purpose room, currently used as a cinema and playroom. This floor allows potential for separate accommodation due to its own access via fire escape stairs, or perfect as a children's retreat or creative studio.
The basement provides further useful space, including a large boiler room, original wine cellar with brick shelving, a plant room for the swimming pool and additional storage, with direct access to the garden.
The grounds are a particular highlight. A large flat lawn leads gently down to the lake, complete with a small jetty, ideal for summer drinks or launching a rowing boat, framed by a magnificent weeping willow. To the side of the house lies a swimming pool, a wildflower meadow with a very large oak tree, a traditional greenhouse, several outbuildings, and a beautifully arranged kitchen garden.
Loxwood Hall East is a truly rare offering, grand yet inviting, rich in history yet suited to modern life, presenting a superb opportunity to enjoy country living in a remarkably beautiful setting.
