    About this property

    • End of chain. Causeway House is listed as Grade II and is a significant timber-framed house with plastered elevations under a handmade red-clay tiled roof. The accommodation is arranged over two levels providing beautifully presented interiors with a wealth of period features associated with properties of its age including exposed timberwork and an original exposed red-brick fireplace. The property dates back in parts to the 1500s, constituting a valuable source of historical architecture. In recent times the property has been thoughtfully enhanced, designed and extended providing flexible levels of accommodation, suited for extended family living and entertaining, with a converted cart lodge providing an ideal work-from-home space. Causeway House is discreetly set back from the road over a sweeping driveway in delightful grounds of 0.38 of an acre with beautiful westerly countryside views.

      There are four bedrooms including a grand principal bedroom with en suite bathroom and walk-in wardrobe. There is a separate family bathroom centred around a practical landing. Bedroom three provides a walk-in dressing room/nursery. A separate staircase leads to the upper level bedroom four.

      The reception hall is positioned to the front of the house and is a welcoming space with doors opening to interconnecting receptions rooms providing a wealth of period features. The sitting room is also located from the hall whilst to the rear, and benefitting from a westerly-facing aspect with views over the garden, is the kitchen/breakfast room linking through to a stunning family room. Concluding the ground floor accommodation is a utility room, a further bathroom and an inner lobby with stairs rising to the dressing room/nursery.

      Outside

The gardens are complemented with box hedging and a selection of trees with an overall plot extending to 0.38 of an acre.
