A Substantial Victorian Home, With Mature Gardens And Outbuildings

Elmfield House is an imposing Victorian residence, featuring handsome red brick elevations with stone dressings and traditional sash windows. The property offers extensive and characterful accommodation, retaining a wealth of period features including high ceilings, ornate cornicing and original fireplaces with decorative tile surrounds, complemented by well-proportioned rooms throughout. Our clients have been in occupation for some 49 years and the property remains in a delightfully unspoilt condition, giving incoming purchasers ample scope to put their own mark on it.

The accommodation is centred around an impressive reception hall, with a galleried landing and a sweeping staircase, creating a striking sense of arrival. From here, doors lead to the principal reception rooms, including a generous drawing room with a large bay window, intricate plasterwork and a fireplace with Jetmaster fire. There is a formal dining room, well suited to entertaining, and a separate study providing an ideal space for home working. An original glasshouse extends from the house, offering a bright and versatile area with views across the gardens and a strong connection to the outside space.

The kitchen provides a practical and well-arranged space for day-to-day living with the original range, supported by a larder, utility room and boot room, together with a range of additional store rooms, ensuring excellent functionality.

The first floor provides five well-proportioned bedrooms, including a substantial principal bedroom with a bay window and feature fireplace, enjoying an attractive outlook over the garden.

The second floor offers four large attic rooms, together with a secondary kitchen, providing flexible accommodation or ancillary use. This can be accessed via a rear staircase.

The lower ground floor includes a main cellar, a separate wine cellar and externally accessed cellar, adding further useful storage space.
