A Delightful Grade II Listed House With Annexe And Splendid Gardens In A Highly Desirable Setting

Thornes is an impressive Grade II Listed detached house, providing more than 3,323 square feet/309 square meters of character accommodation, now in need of some modernisation. The property dates from the early 19th century and features attractive red and grey brick elevations, as well as sash windows and various other splendid character details throughout.

There are four comfortable reception rooms on the ground floor of the main house, including the generous L-shaped drawing with two distinct sitting areas. The room features wooden parquet flooring, a fireplace, built-in storage and shelving and French doors to two aspects, providing access to the garden. Further reception rooms include a study, again with open fireplace and the formal dining room, while the ground floor also has a well-equipped kitchen and an adjoining breakfast room for informal dining. The kitchen features wooden units to base and wall level, as well as an integrated oven and hob and space.

Upstairs, the four double bedrooms include the well-proportioned double aspect principal bedroom, with fitted wardrobes, a dressing room, an en suite bathroom, and French doors opening onto a sunny balcony with views of the garden. One further bedroom has an en suite shower room, while two have their own washbasins. The first floor also has a family bathroom.

The annexe is located on the first floor with its own private entrance, and is completely separate from the main house. It includes a studio-style sitting room and bedroom, as well as a fully equipped kitchen and a bathroom with a separate shower. The space provides ideal accommodation for guests or family members.
