The Gatehouse
A comprehensively refurbished 5/6 bedroom country home, with pool and pool-house, double garage and mature gardens
Privacy & Luxury
Rarely does a property come to the market with such reassuring privacy as enjoyed by The Gatehouse. Despite its seclusion, this meticulously refurbished four/five bedroom property has the protection of being accessed from a private gravel track shared only with the historic Edwin Lutyens designed 'Little Thakeham House'.
The Gatehouse has witnessed a comprehensive makeover that now provides ideal accommodation for a family, whilst also exhibiting a raft of contemporary features. The dramatic 33' vaulted reception area has an impressive 33' gallery overlooking a custom built Shaker kitchen, with granite surfaces and conservatory. This imaginative use of lateral space combined with open ceilings, create generous natural light and sociable entertaining space.
Additional accommodation includes four/five bedrooms, two bathrooms, 2/3 reception rooms, cloakroom and utility room.
Gardens & Grounds
The gardens are a perfect complement to the house with considerable care given to their enjoyment.
A stone terrace extends the entire width of the house, enjoying a southerly aspect beneath a backdrop of mature wisteria. The gardens are mostly lawn, interspersed by flower beds with various specimen trees and bushes. The house and garden are enclosed by mature oak trees to three sides with a plum orchard to the other.
Standing within the grounds, which extend to just over half an acre, is a detached double garage benefiting from remote control electric doors, with a studio room above.
A superb decking area leads to the pool house and 32' x 16' heated swimming pool.
