The property
Dating from the late 15th century, Old Beech Hyde is a Grade II listed former hall house offering almost 5,000 sq ft of light-filled flexible accommodation arranged predominantly over two floors. Configured to provide an elegant and practical living and entertaining environment, the accommodation flows from a welcoming entrance porch. It comprises generous drawing, sitting and dining rooms, all with feature fireplaces and the latter with a door to the rear terrace. An inner hall off the drawing and sitting rooms has a useful cloakroom and gives access to a kitchen/breakfast room with a range of wall and base units, an Aga, modern integrated appliances, space for a table and a neighbouring rear porch with a fitted utility room, pantry and a door to the rear terrace. The property also benefits from generous cellarage, suitable for a variety of uses. A door from the dining room opens to a side entrance hall, giving access to the annexe kitchen/living room and to a bedroom with en suite shower and separate cloakroom.

Stairs rise from the inner hall to the first floor which provides a study, principal bedroom with extensive fitted storage and en suite bathroom with freestanding bath and separate shower. Two further double bedrooms share Jack and Jill access to an en suite bathroom with a freestanding bath, one of which has double doors opening onto a landing that is also accessible from the annexe entrance hall. From here, there is access to a laundry room, two additional double bedrooms, and a family bathroom. There is also a games room on the second floor.
