    About this property

    • Rockmount dates from the mid 1960s and has been extended and modernised over the years, most recently with new decking and glazing on the balconies. Internally, the accommodation is designed to make the best of the panoramic views, with a plethora of picture windows and glazed doors to the balconies and decked areas. The main living rooms are all bright, south facing rooms with fabulous views.

      At the heart of the property is an open plan kitchen/ dining/ sitting room with floor to ceiling windows and lots of space for a dining table as well as comfortable seating. An impressive octagonal drawing room and a separate dining room are suitable for more formal entertaining but the rooms are enormously versatile and all have direct access to the expansive decking that wraps around the front of the house. A reception hall, utility room, home office and rear hall (with ladder to a small playroom/den) complete the living spaces at Rockmount.

      At the west end of the house, the bedroom wing is arranged over two storeys with three double bedrooms on the ground floor. Two share a Jack and Jill shower room whilst the other has its own bathroom and dressing room. Each of these three bedrooms has double doors to the decking. On the upper level, a luxurious main bedroom suite has a large (7.1 x 5.9m) bedroom with dressing room and bathroom. A smaller bedroom and study are also linked to the main bedroom suite. Double doors from the main bedroom, bathroom and dressing room open to a recently refurbished balcony with glass balustrade. Below the house are extensive basement stores.

      Outside
      Rockmount is set in about 3.55 acres of garden and woodland. Being on a hillside, the garden falls away from the house, and the decking and balconies are fabulous places from which to enjoy the mature plants and shrubs that were planted to provide colour and interest in the garden throughout the year. A path weaves through the garden and into the woodland (formerly a quarry) which is offset to the east of the house and being largely undisturbed is filled with wildlife. To the north of the house there is space to park and turn several cars.
