Huge six-bed house in 1.81 acres for sale at £1.75 million

Selling agent Brown&Co says the original house, called Graywood, has been extended to create a “substantial dwelling” of approximately 5,200 sq ft.

Also included in the sale is a detached, three-bedroom annexe.

Inside, Graywood’s reception area opens into a double-height entrance hall through a bold double arched doorway with exposed brick and flint detailing. A custom oak staircase rises to a first-floor balcony with metal railing overlooking the space.

There are six impressive reception rooms on the ground floor of the property – a large sitting room, a family room, dining room, office, and a games room with an attached snug. The games room and sitting room both benefit from bi-fold doors opening to the rear patio terrace.

The dining room is open plan to the kitchen/breakfast room – a fantastic entertaining space with sleek white units and a large central island. The breakfast area has double doors opening to the rear garden and there is an adjoining utility room.

The accommodation on the first floor is equally impressive. Of Graywood’s six bedrooms, three have en-suite facilities, two have their own dressing rooms and two have balconies. Their spacious layouts and views across the surrounding woodland and countryside create a tranquil feel throughout the whole floor.

One of the bedrooms is currently used as a dressing room and has fitted furniture, but could be reverted back to a bedroom or an office space.

Outside, Graywood is approached by two security gates providing access to the driveway and a large tarmac parking area and a double garage which adjoins the annexe. A gate opens to a second tarmac parking area where a barn is housed.

The detached, single-storey annexe is “a significant benefit to the property”, according to Brown&Co.

It has been remodelled and extended, offering an open-plan living area with kitchen, three bedrooms, a bathroom and a private garden area to the rear. It offers potential for multi-generational living or even an additional income stream.

The main property's garden is divided into two main areas – at the rear of the house is the stylish patio terrace which runs along the length of the property and overlooks the rear lawn. A pathway on to the lawn leads to a sheltered hot tub area.

Beyond this is a second area mostly laid to lawn and surrounded by trees. The previous owners have used this as a cricket pitch, football pitch and campsite – making it perfect for children. There are also screened areas for composting and storage.

Also nestled in the grounds of Graywood is a barn constructed in a “stable block style” with a covered walkway to the front and four bays. It provides a convenient storage space and the remainder of the building is currently divided in two and used as a playroom and gym.

The barn could be converted into further office space or accommodation, subject to the relevant planning permissions.
