Superb Traditional Jersey Granite Home With Grounds

A beautiful traditional Jersey granite home set on high ground with all day sunlight. It is set in the countryside with surrounding fields and has a wonderful verdant outlook.

It is approached through electric gates, leading to a courtyard, a triple garage including a boot room and a shower room.

This inviting home has been completely renovated throughout with landscaped gardening, swimming pool, hot tub and full interior re-build and interior design.

There are many noteworthy aspects including a 35ft kitchen/family room, with high-end, Smallbone fitted kitchen which includes an electric Aga, marble splashbacks, centre island and top-of-the-range appliances. This space also has an eating area, a double-sided real fire and a sunroom/sitting area with doors leading to the garden. This really is the heart of the home where friends can gather.

There is a full-size pantry with an extra fridge/freezer, all very well designed by Smallbone with shelving and pull-out wooden drawers.

There is a formal drawing/dining room (24ft in length) with a wood burning stove and two traditional fireplaces. In addition, there are 2 further reception rooms, currently used as a library/music room and an office where there is a lift to the first floor. There is a laundry room, a cloakroom/WC and an impressive ’sunken’ wine cellar accessed under the floor in the north entrance hall. It has an electrically operated door and steps down. It makes a striking feature when lit on an evening.

At first floor level there are four bedrooms, all of which are ensuite. The primary bedroom is very impressive, it has its own balcony overlooking the mature gardens, pool and countryside beyond; a vaulted ceiling creating a sense of space ad height, an ensuite bathroom with a freestanding ’copper’ bath, a separate shower with marble walls and a TV.

There are ample wardrobes and storage in the dressing area. This bedroom adjoins bedroom two, which can easily be used as part of the primary bedroom space, thereby having two dressing spaces and bathrooms.

On the second floor are bedrooms five and six and a shared shower room. A second staircase from the ground floor provides private access to the primary bedroom suite, as well as the cinema room containing a beautiful art deco Smallbone kitchen, and a cloakroom.

Externally, the gardens are mature and beautifully planted. There are magnolia trees, fruit trees, lavender, agapanthus and much more.

There is a south facing lawned garden. The swimming pool is heated with an electric load bearing cover.

There is a Boule pitch, an ornamental pond and a fabulous raised entertaining area, which is large enough for a long outdoor table, barbecue area, sitting area and a built -in fireplace provides warmth as the summer evenings cool.

There is a modern yet traditional style Hartley Botanic greenhouse and several raised beds for the keen gardener. The orchard provides a selection of fruit trees including pear, apple and plum trees, just to name a few.
There is a most charming former Chapel in the garden, with a vaulted ceiling and stained-glass windows. It has been renovated and upgraded with underfloor heating and would make an ideal office or hobby space.

Of particular interest are the two separate granite cottages which have their own private driveway entrance, parking and their own outdoor space. They provide an income or can be used for family.

There has been great attention to detail in the renovation of this beautiful home. It is both tasteful and in keeping and is testament to the current owners.
