A Notable And Historic Grade I Listed Manor House With Characterful, Relaxed Rooms.

Tunstall House is a splendid Grade I listed family home offering an array of outstanding rooms with high ceilings and an abundance of period features dating from the 17th century, including exposed timbers, panelled reception rooms, ornate cornicing and original fireplaces. The house is set behind a high wall with electric double gates opening to a walled courtyard. There are also a variety of period outbuildings together with a heated swimming pool. The surrounding land totals 13 acres, with meadows, beautiful mature trees, a wooded area and useful paddocks.

The porch opens into a stunning family room with panelled walls, exposed wooden floorboards and a grand, brick-built open fireplace. Two further reception rooms are set to the front of the house, including the snug – a cosy space where one can relax and unwind - and the sizeable drawing room, both with magnificent fireplaces, panelling and corniced ceilings. There are five further ground floor reception rooms, including two studies, the playroom and the sunny southwest-facing conservatory, as well as a formal dining room.

The central kitchen and breakfast room extends to 24ft and features terracotta tiled flooring, modern Shaker-style units, a central island with a breakfast bar and an Aga, as well as ample space for a breakfast table. A utility room opening onto the rear courtyard offers further room for home storage and appliances, as does the cellar.

An impressive painted oak staircase, together with a secondary staircase, rises to the upper levels. Five well-presented double bedrooms are found on the first floor. The vast principal bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe and en suite bathroom, and each of the four additional first-floor bedrooms also have en suite bathrooms. A further staircase leads to the second floor, where there are two large double bedrooms, a family bathroom, loft storage rooms and a room that houses the mechanism for the clock.
