In a breathtaking garden setting with pool and north-south tennis court, it sets the scene for seamless indoor-outdoor family living and entertaining on a lavish scale.

Defined by bespoke finishes, expansive proportions and a rare refinement, all the living spaces open out to the picturesque gardens. A generous reception hall featuring oak floors introduces a gracious sitting room with gas fire, library or home office also with a gas fire and glorious dining room.
