Main House:
Step inside to a welcoming reception hall that immediately sets the tone; high ceilings, original features, and a palpable sense of refinement. The principal living spaces flow effortlessly across the ground floor, offering an exceptional lifestyle for both relaxed family living and lavish entertaining.
* A formal drawing room and separate living room offer fabulous family living spaces, boasting bay windows and intricate detailing.
* A private study/home office provides an inspiring setting for remote work or quiet reflection.
* The heart of the home is the wonderful kitchen diner which enjoys a good degree of natural light; a perfect fusion of classic craftsmanship and sleek contemporary finishes. This space extends into the family room and glass-fronted orangery beyond, where floor-to-ceiling views of the immaculate gardens create a true sense of indoor-outdoor living.
* The family room offers additional space for children, media or relaxed gatherings.
The lower ground floor offers incredible versatility, with two attractive bedrooms, a chic bar/lounge area, shower room, and garden-facing sitting area with direct access outside. Ideal as a guest-level or teenage hideaway.
Upstairs, the first floor is home to the sumptuous principal suite, complete with a spacious luxury en suite. Three further bedrooms and a beautifully appointed family bathroom complete this level. The second floor offers a collection of loft rooms, perfect for additional extensive storage or a possible further study area.

Coach House:
At the rear of the plot, discreetly positioned, stands the charming detached coach house; a true asset to this already outstanding home. Designed in traditional style with a modern interior, it includes:
* A fully fitted kitchen and inviting living room on the ground floor
* Two bedrooms and a contemporary bathroom above
Whether used for extended family, a guest residence, au pair accommodation, or a premium home office, the coach house adds exceptional flexibility and value.

Gardens & Grounds
Outside, the gardens have been lovingly landscaped to perfection with an array of mature trees, lush borders, manicured lawns, and hidden seating areas, the grounds offer a private oasis of calm. Ideal for al fresco dining, children's play, or quiet evenings under the stars.
A detached garage and ample off-street parking via the carriage driveway complete the picture.
A Rare Opportunity
Opportunities like this are few and far between. A home of such stature, with period grandeur, contemporary comfort, and rare ancillary accommodation, rarely becomes available; particularly in a location as revered as this.

Rent-driven metrics
Based on OpenRent comparables.
- Rent ratio — Monthly rent ÷ purchase price (1% rule). 1%+ = strong, 0.8–1% = okay, <0.8% = weak for cashflow.
- Max investor price — Rent ÷ 0.8%; the price at which rent would be 0.8% of price (Stoke-style target).
- Target investor price — Rent ÷ 1%; the price at which rent would be 1% of price (strong cashflow band).
- Gross yield — Annual rent as % of purchase price (no costs).
- Cost-to-rent — Price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables). Under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed.
- Cashflow — Rent minus mortgage, 10% maintenance, £25/mo compliance. Assumes 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term.
- ROI — Annual profit ÷ cash in (deposit + 4% purchase costs).
