Description
A fine Edwardian House set within delightful gardens
A rare opportunity to acquire a former headmasters house that has been modernised by the present owners to create an excellent example of a charming family home that successfully blends period features with modern-day living. The house is set within mature gardens that provide a high degree of seclusion. In addition to the main house, office space above the double garage is ideal for those seeking to work from home. The beautifully presented accommodation ranges over two floors and the character features include excellent ceiling heights, original fireplaces in many of the rooms, sash windows, moulded cornicing, ceiling roses and stripped wooden floors, doors, architraves and skirtings.
The house benefits from three reception rooms: the elegant sitting room boasting a large bay window, a marble fireplace and double doors opening out to a secluded patio area, the spacious dining room, also with a large bay window and a period fireplace, and a family room, which could be utilised as a fifth bedroom if required. The Mark Wilkinson kitchen is fitted with a range of units, a central island with a granite worksurface, and appliances. The adjoining boot room provides additional kitchen space with further appliances, units, and a ceramic sink, and there is also a useful utility area, store room and a cloakroom.
The first floor is arranged to provide four double bedrooms, all with fireplaces, a modern family bathroom, a shower room and a cloakroom. Outside
The gardens are a key feature of the property and are stocked with a wide variety of flowering plants, shrubs and trees to create 'year round' interest. To the front, an attractive tiled pathway leads through the garden to the entrance of the house and, in addition to the double garage, a gravelled driveway provides off-road parking. The gardens are principally laid to lawn and incorporate areas designed for relaxation and 'al fresco' dining.
Situation
Bagshot is conveniently located for access to the motorway network and Heathrow Airport, while private aviation facilities are available at Farnborough and Fairoaks Airfields. A Waitrose store and Bagshot High Street are both within striking distance whilst the historic towns of Guildford and Windsor, both with thriving High Streets, offer a wider range of amenities.
Some of the best known golf courses in the world may be found in the area, notably Wentworth and Sunningdale. There are excellent spa facilities at Pennyhill Park, Coworth Park, Wentworth, Berystede and Foxhills, and many local riding schools and stables for those with equestrian interests. Attractions for all of the family include Windsor Castle, Legoland, Thorpe Park, Windsor Great Park, Virginia Water Lake and Savill Garden. Pleasant walks and off-road cycling are available at the nearby Bagshot Heath and Swinley Forest.
The general area is served by an excellent range of schools, both in the state and private sectors, including Bagshot Infant School (Ofsted rated Good and within a stone's throw of the property), Connaught Junior School (Ofsted rated Outstanding), Hall Grove, Gordon's School (Ofted rated Outstanding), Woodcote House, St. Mary’s Ascot, St. George’s Ascot, LVS, Marist, Sunningdale School, Coworth Flexlands and many more.
Directions
Heading in a south-westerly direction towards Bagshot on the A30/London Road and with Longacres Garden Centre on your right, proceed straight over the mini roundabout and continue for about 1.1 miles and turn left into Lambourne Drive. The road bears around to the left (becoming Chantry Road) and then around to the right where you will see School House straight ahead.
