Description
A secluded retreat immersed in nature.
Set within an enchanting 44-acre private estate, Coneygore is a home of architectural character and exceptional privacy. The house sits within its own secluded woodland valley, approached via a winding driveway and surrounded by expansive gardens, rare trees, and tranquil water features.
The property has been extensively improved in recent years, combining timeless craftsmanship with a design philosophy rooted in light, nature, and comfort. Vaulted ceilings, exposed oak beams, and curved internal walls are complemented by large sash windows and skylights, bringing natural light into every corner.
On the ground floor, a welcoming reception hall leads to the drawing room and conservatory/dining room, both offering serene garden views. The study provides a peaceful workspace, while the kitchen and adjoining breakfast area are well appointed for family life and entertaining. Underfloor heating ensures comfort year-round, and air conditioning has been installed in key areas.
Upstairs, the principal suite is a generous, light-filled retreat with views across the estate, a dressing area and private bathroom. Three additional bedrooms include two with en suite bathrooms, each designed with individuality and comfort in mind.
The striking swimming pool complex is a centrepiece of the home, its dramatic timber framed ceiling echoing the surrounding woodland. Adjoining this space is an inspiring artist’s studio with double-height glazing and tranquil garden views.
Beyond the main house is a comprehensive collection of outbuildings, including a double garage, well-equipped workshop, and storage barns and a log cabin. Extensive outbuildings to the southeast of the property include a stable block and barn, offering potential for equestrian use.
The gardens at Coneygore have been carefully designed to enhance the natural landscape. Terraced lawns flow from the house to a series of seating areas and ponds, framed by mature trees and flowering shrubs. A west-facing decked terrace is perfect for entertaining, with views across the woodland and gardens.
Rare tree specimens, including Davidia involucrata, Japanese maples, red and pin oaks, and scented rhododendrons, are interspersed throughout the grounds. Ancient Ilex trees, believed to date back to the 14th century, provide a historic backdrop to the woodland walks. A secluded lake with jetty offers a peaceful escape, its still waters bordered by towering hemlocks. A timber-framed summer house completes this magical setting, offering a perfect spot to enjoy the estate’s tranquillity.
