Rhynd House is approached via a short private driveway which leads to gravel parking at the front and side of the house. The front door opens to a vestibule and then into a broad reception hall where a beautiful carved timber staircase is the focal point. The house is characterised by its high ceilings, large sash and case windows, decorative cornicework in the main reception rooms and some splendid fireplaces. Many of the main rooms as well as the bath and shower rooms have been modernised over the years and although the property is in move-in condition, there are areas, such as the adjoining cottage, which will benefit from refurbishment and upgrading. On the ground floor the dining room and sitting room make beautiful entertaining rooms while the kitchen (with its cream AGA) and conservatory are ideal for everyday life being connected by double glazed doors and positioned to make the very best of Rhynd House's mesmerising view. Also on the ground floor there is a study, a modernised shower room and utility room. Behind the utility room is a small staircase to a separate bedroom which could also work well as a home office.

On the first floor there is an impressive drawing room which may once have been the main formal room in the house. It has a large bay window, a fine fireplace, original cornicework and one of the best views from the house. This room would also make a fantastic principal bedroom depending on a buyer's requirements. In addition, there are two double rooms with en suite dressing rooms (which offers scope for becoming bathrooms), one further double bedroom and a family bathroom.

Adjoining the main house is a single storey one bedroom cottage. This could be refurbished and made into an excellent little guest/ letting cottage or accommodation for a relative.

Outside
The garden at Rhynd amounts to approximately 0.95 acres and is mostly laid out to the south of the house. Mature trees, an enclosed kitchen garden with raised beds and herbaceous borders, a front lawn and a bank of shrubs all give the garden mature character. The courtyard formed by the adjoining cottage provides a useful space for outdoor stores.
