To the left is a double aspect drawing room with an open fire place. Three tall sash windows frame the landscaped garden beautifully, a door leads though to the sitting room, also with an open fire and a large sash window that over looks the south east facing terrace and gardens. The dining room is beautifully proportioned for formal entertaining and leads to through to the large study/ billiards room with a log burning stove and French windows over looking the front gardens. The kitchen/ breakfast room is located to the rear of the house and is truly the heart of the home with a large island, four oven Aga which has been set into a stone fire place and a sympathetically extended dining area which is flooded with natural light. The boot room/ utility leads from the kitchen has been equipped for use as a caterers kitchen. The south west facing orangery is an excellent addition to The Grange and provides exceptional space for entertaining. There are two cellars which have been converted into a cinema room and games room to include table tennis and a dart board. Upstairs there are four large bedrooms each with an ensuite bathroom and unique view of the gardens. The double aspect principle suite is particularly special with exceptional views across the gardens and ensuite bathroom with free standing bath, separate showing and dressing area. On the second floor there are a further four bedrooms and two large bathrooms. Outside the beautiful gardens are a mixture formal landscaped gardens and parkland. There is an outdoor heated swimming pool with changing room, there is also a hot tub and sauna. The Grange benefits from a hard tennis court, croquet lawn and a small football pitch. Opposite the main house is the separate annex which has been beautifully refurbished to include a sitting room, modern kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom. The gravelled driveway provides parking for several cars along with garaging.
