The property includes a grand house, a self-contained cottage, a garage and a storehouse. They are spread out in a walled garden. A majestic entrance gate leads from the road into the court of the grand house. This court takes you to the house’s flight of front steps. A magnificent canopy of glass and steel, finely decorated with volutes that support it, extends above the entrance door. This large canopy seems to rise up into the sky. The rectangular edifice has a ground floor, a first floor and a second and third floor in the roof space. The grand dwelling offers a 550m² floor area in total. It is crowned with a slate roof punctuated with dormers and bull’s-eye windows. Beneath a cornice that runs along the top of the first floor, there are large windows capped with pediments sculpted directly in the stone. Inside, the rooms are spacious and well laid out. There are fireplaces in each room. Oak parquet and oak strip flooring extend across the rooms and the ceilings are underlined with cornices. The property’s hosting capacity is considerable, with 11 bedrooms in the grand house (ten of which have their own private shower room and lavatory) and two extra bedrooms in the cottage, which offers a 90m² floor area. The garage, which is set back, can house several vehicles. And a little further away there is a storehouse.

The grand house

The edifice is made of ashlar and embellished with protruding quoins. Its slate roof is crowned with a terrace edged with a wrought-iron guardrail. The window surrounds are richly decorated and the windows are fitted with metal shutters and wrought-iron guardrails.

The ground floor
Once you have gone up the flight of front steps, a double door takes you into an entrance hall that connects to all the rooms on the raised ground floor. On the right, there is a dual-aspect lounge with a fireplace. Three windows bring an abundance of natural light inside it. On the left, there is a dining room with two windows and a fireplace. Beside it there is a fitted kitchen with a central island unit. From the lounge or the hallway, you can reach a bedroom with its own private shower room and lavatory. And from the bedroom or the kitchen, a few steps take you down to a conservatory at the garden level.

The first floor
At the top of an oak staircase with a wrought-iron balustrade, a landing connects to four bedrooms, each of which has its own private shower room and lavatory. There is also a smaller bedroom up here. All the bedrooms are dual-aspect rooms with a fireplace. Three of the four shower rooms are filled with natural light from windows.

The second floor
Up on the second floor, the rooms are laid out in the same way as on the first floor. A large landing connects to four bedrooms, each of which has its own private shower room and lavatory. Wood strip flooring extends across the bedrooms. There is a fireplace in each of the rooms, which are single-aspect and double-aspect spaces.

The third floor
The third floor has a self-contained apartment with a kitchen, a lounge, two bedrooms and a bathroom with a shower and lavatory. The whole apartment lies just beneath the top of the roof slopes. It is filled with natural light from bull’s-eye windows. A small wooden staircase leads up to a roof terrace that looks down over the village and the surrounding countryside, which stretches as far as the eye can see.

The garden-level floor
A conservatory was built along the breadth of the house to make use of the space between the property’s outer wall and the back of the edifice. You can reach it from the two sides of the garden, from the kitchen, from the ground-floor bedroom and from the basement. This conservatory has a kitchenette and tables for meals.

The basement
You can reach the basement either from the hallway or the conservatory. It has been converted into a leisure space. On one side, there is a heated swimming pool, a steam room, a sauna and a shower. On the other side, there is a fitness room. A utility room and a boiler room complete this level.
