House to rent
Entertain effortlessly in this four-bedroom home on expansive 9,172 m² grounds with covered patio and rose gardens, set back behind a cobbled forecourt — includes self-contained one-bedroom flat above garages.
This welcoming double-storey home combines classic charm with comfortable family living. Painted cream brickwork and dark timber window frames create a timeless look, while the cobbled forecourt provides a lovely approach to the house, set back from the road.
Downstairs, the dining room is made for entertaining, with a long timber table that seats 10 and stays with the home, a gas fireplace and glazed doors opening onto the covered patio. The separate living room has its own gas fireplace, creating a cosy spot to relax. The kitchen is full of character, with blue Shaker cabinetry, a panelled island, white worktops, an electric hob, two electric ovens, plus a separate scullery, pantry and breakfast table.
Upstairs, you`ll find four carpeted bedrooms, along with a study and family bathroom. The spacious main bedroom is tucked into a corner of the house and features a walk-in closet and a beautiful en suite bathroom with a freestanding bath, walk-in shower and double basins. A guest cloakroom downstairs adds extra convenience.
Outside, the covered patio is perfect for relaxed lunches and family gatherings, with an eight-seater table overlooking the lawn, neatly clipped hedges and established roses.
There`s plenty of additional space, too. A self-contained one-bedroom flat sits above the garages, ideal for guests, extended family or independent living. Staff accommodation includes an en suite bathroom and kitchenette, while a workshop and garden storeroom provide useful extra storage. Three garages and additional parking on the forecourt complete the picture.
The home is well equipped for modern living, with a solar PV system, Deye inverter and batteries. Impressively, it has gone 11 months without drawing electricity from the grid. Security includes CCTV, motion beams and an alarm linked to a CapSecurity contract.
