RURAL RETREAT


P ro p e r t y : Bank House Location: Edingley Price guide: £850,000


Here’s a country house with a difference: one part dating from around 1800, the second, a late 20th-Century addition. The result? Bank House – a home that cleverly blends period charm with contemporary appeal. It’s a substantial property, too, offering exceptional use of space that revels in its rural setting. On the ground floor is an entrance hall leading to four large reception rooms. There’s a beamed sitting room, study, garden room and an L-shaped, open plan space with underfloor heating and beamed ceilings that’s currently arranged as a lounge area and a dining area. A breakfast kitchen has been fitted with an extensive range of country-style units, while additional practical space is provided by a large pantry-larder store, laundry and boiler room. The first floor is divided into ‘new bedrooms’: master suite, en suite, mezzanine dressing room and wardrobe store, plus bedroom two and shower room, then there are the ‘t ra d i t i o n a l bedrooms’ with three additional bedrooms, two being en suite. A main family bathroom completes the accommodation. Outside are extensive and private gardens and grounds of around 3.25 acres. The main area is set to the west of the house with a large fish pond, raised decked terrace and curving shrubbery border. A grassed embankment then leads you towards a more elevated


lawned area sweeping around the south-facing side of the house to a flagged terrace accessed via the master bedroom. You also have two grass paddocks extending into glorious, open countryside. A large garage block accommodates three-car garaging and gymnasium / games room and there is a useful and rather sizeable workshop, too.
