    About this property

    • This magnificent granite estate is complimented by approximately 35 acres of immaculate grounds surrounded by the beautiful countryside. This rural retreat would make a perfect family home with nine bedrooms split across the main house and ancillary space, a glorious garden, tennis court, swimming pool and stables to name a few, making it a fantastic place to raise children.

      Tucked down a quiet green lane, electric gates open up to a tree lined sweeping driveway on approach to a courtyard with parking for at least 10 cars centred around an old mill wheel. Upon entry to the main house through an elegant wooden front door, you are greeted by a vaulted ceiling with sleek hard wooden flooring seamlessly connecting the downstairs living space. This traditional granite farmhouse has character and charm with stone fireplaces and beams, whilst recent renovations have shaped a tasteful balance of modern features. An example is the High-Tec cinema room with laser projection, comfortably seating 14 people. Additionally, a temperature controlled wine room with wooden decor and cabinetry, a great place to display and safely store the treasured collection.

      The bespoke-made kitchen features a gorgeous, large island complete with breakfast bar, and is fully equipped with high end appliances such as an AGA. This kitchen is designed for daily family life whilst supported by a utility room and secondary kitchen to assist with catering and preparation. The orangery is flooded with natural light and has room for a large dining table to seat all the family whilst admiring views over the pretty gardens. The additional reception rooms include a cosy snug, grand drawing room, formal dining room, study and second floor versatile office space.

      Upstairs, the principal bedroom complete with ensuite, enjoys breath-taking scenic views through lovely sash windows. The ensuite bathroom has an elegant freestanding bath tub and is complete with a luxurious walk in shower. There are three other bedrooms on this floor all similarly appointed and also benefiting from the country scenery.

      The main house is supported by ancillary space in the form of a four bedroom cottage which is ideal for visiting family or to comfortably accommodate guests. This farmhouse is not short of space for visitors with an additional one bedroom flat located above the double garages.

      Le Mottais Farm boasts a range of leisure facilities to cater to all the family's needs. First is a large heated indoor swimming pool complex with adjoining home gym perfect for use in both winter and summer when the sliding doors transform the space by connecting to the adjoining patio. For equestrians there are four stables, a tack room, store for saddles and other equipment and most impressively a manège for training. A further selling point is an all-weather tennis court and a fully equipped mirrored home gym with plenty of natural light, making this a pleasant environment to exercise.

      Externally, the garden has a beautifully manicured lawn lined with young fruit trees and several vine covered arbours to stroll through the enchanting grounds. There are several patio areas to unwind with a coffee in the morning, soak up the sunshine, or for alfresco dining.

      Le Mottais Farm is enclosed within its own approximately 80 vergees of surrounding farmland, creating a peaceful environment. One of the large fields is used for equine grazing whilst the others are let out to local farmers.

    This property ticks every box!
