Description
This stunning Grade II Listed detached house, believed to have been built in 1710, boasts a unique blend of elegance, charm, and modern comforts. The property, which was once owned by Sir Francis Chichester, a famous yachtsman, features original brickwork, multi-pane sash windows, and chimney stacks, giving it an air of authenticity. The interior is equally impressive, with high coved ceilings, dado rails, wall panelling, and original shutters, creating a sense of stepping into a Jane Austen novel. The property has been sensitively modernized for 21st-century living, while still retaining many historical features. The grounds, which cover 1.01 acres, include a walled garden, a listed conservatory, and a detached outbuilding with a lean-to greenhouse and workshop. The property is situated in a quiet, cul-de-sac location, close to Grange Hill station, which provides easy access to London. With its unique blend of history, charm, and modern amenities, this property is a rare find.
