Mayfield House is a hugely impressive Victorian villa set in mature gardens and grounds offering a combination of some gracious reception rooms with extensive family accommodation. In addition to a large drawing room and dining room, there is also a stunning open plan family kitchen, a spacious sitting room and a study. Many of the principal rooms have some fine moulded cornicing and fireplaces. The main bedroom suite includes a good sized dressing room and bathroom. The lovely grounds and gardens also include a swimming pool.

Double doors give access to a spacious entrance vestibule with a stone floor and a glazed door with leaded lights and side screen to the main hall. A door under the stairs leads down to a cellar which includes a wine store with wine bins.

Off the main hall there are three principal reception rooms. The sitting room has an attractive timber mantelpiece with inset cast iron fireplace, moulded cornice, recessed ceiling lights and a bay window to the front with French doors and steps down to the garden. On the opposite side of the hall is the dining room which has a similar bay window and a second wide bay overlooking the side garden. This room also has a fireplace, moulded cornice and a central rose and a door to the inner hall. The magnificent drawing room has a central fireplace with marble slips and inset grate and hood, a moulded cornice, moulded panel to the walls and a wide bay with French windows to a large south facing terrace.

The family kitchen is a wonderful room at the heart of the house. It was only relatively recently re-modelled to incorporate the space required by modern families and includes an Aga, a range of fitted storage units, dining and sitting areas, with French doors opening onto the garden.

Off the inner hall is a cloakroom with mirror fronted cupboards, separate WC and twin basins and a large utility room with stainless steel sink unit, plumbing for two washing machines and fitted cupboards. Beyond the kitchen is a tiled back hall which has a side door to the garden, a cloakroom with a shower room, WC, basin and footbath, store, store room and an office /garden room with a wall of fitted cupboards with inset basin and double doors to a small enclosed "secret" terrace and lawned garden.

Both have a moulded cornice, a fireplace and fitted cupboards. The master suite is approached through a large dressing room with two walls of fitted cupboards, fireplace and moulded cornice. A door to a small inner lobby gives access to the bedroom with a fireplace and the bathroom with bath, shower, twin basins and WC. The back landing leads to two further bedrooms, two bathrooms and a side landing with a walk in airing cupboard, a shower room and a secondary staircase to the ground floor. A door opens to a staircase leading up to the top floor and a central landing, off which is a sitting room with doors to bedrooms to either end and a bathroom with corner bath, twin basins, separate shower, WC and built in cupboard.
