A magnificent period house with striking stone elevations, stylish contemporary décor and a picturesque garden, set in a desirable position.
St. Andrew’s House is an imposing period home, which has been extensively modernised to provide stunning luxury living arranged over three floors. The property retains plenty of original character details, including high ceilings, cornicing, large sash windows with shutters and impressive fireplaces, alongside modern fittings and elegant contemporary décor.
The impressive reception hall has a chandelier light fitting overhead and wooden flooring, with a turned staircase leading to the first floor landing. Off the reception hall are three reception rooms, including the private study, which connects via double doors to the generous, airy sitting room with its dual aspect, including tall sash windows providing views across the garden. There is a formal dining room with an attractive fireplace, fitted with a gas living flame stove, while the ground floor also provides a semi open-plan kitchen and family room providing relaxed everyday living space. The kitchen itself has sleek fitted units, a central island and integrated appliances, with access to courtyard and gardens. There are also separate pantry and utility rooms offering additional storage space.
On the first floor there are four well-presented double bedrooms, including the sizeable principal bedroom, which benefits from a chic en suite bathroom with a freestanding bathtub, a walk-in shower and a spacious dressing room, fitted throughout with Krantz wardrobes and storage. The first floor also has an additional bedroom with an en suite shower room and a family bathroom. The second floor comprises a fifth double bedroom and a hobby room with access to eaves storage.
At the entrance to the property there is a gravel driveway which leads to a five-bar electric gate, providing access to the parking area in front of the house. There is a wealth of outside parking space and a detached triple garage for additional parking, workshop and storage space. The garden surrounding the house features rolling lawns and various mature trees and established hedgerows, as well as patio areas for al fresco dining, including courtyard and a paved terrace shaded by a wooden pergola. There is also a tennis court, a vegetable garden with raised beds and a greenhouse, and an outbuilding with a garden store and a home gym.

This is a very special stone former vicarage which has been modernised to an exacting standard throughout, I especially like the kitchen breakfast room and the principal bedroom suite is one of the finest I have seen
