Tetten Hall is rare to the market, having been in the same ownership for over forty years.

Tetten Hall is set well back from the minor public road and accessed over a cattle grid and private driveway, culminating in a generous yard with ample parking and turning. There is also secondary access through the neighbouring cottages to the east. The barns are stone built under slate roofs and offer excellent storage facilities but could also be utilised for business purposes.  The barns have power, light, concrete floors and the roofs all had remedial repairs carried out five years ago (as did the roof to the house).  In addition, there are four stables.  The property is set within just over 6 acres in all and must be viewed to be fully appreciated. Accommodation A glazed entrance door opens into the reception hall, with cloaks cupboard and open tread stairs rising to the first floor.  To the left of the hall is the bright and spacious sitting room, with wood burning stove and large window overlooking the front garden.  From the sitting room you carry through to what could be a hobby room or perhaps a playroom, and then in turn to a peaceful study, which enjoys views to the rear. The dining room is well-proportioned, with views over the front garden, and is adjacent to the kitchen/breakfast room.  The kitchen is fitted with a good range of wooden cabinets and complementary worksurfaces.  There is a breakfast bar, stainless steel sink, electric hobs, electric oven and grill.  Internal windows and doors look through to the large conservatory.  The conservatory can be accessed from the front terrace and is a large space, ideal for entertaining.  There is a water feature and pond installed here, with manual/timed settings and which is surrounded by house plants. From the end of the conservatory a glazed door leads into a double height library. This impressive and bright room features velux windows, a stone fireplace surround and fitted bookshelves to three walls.  There is also a generous storeroom immediately off the library, which also houses the electrics.  There is still an interconnecting door from the library into one of the barns. To the rear of the ground floor are several additional rooms to include a snug, a utility room, shelved pantry, boot room/freezer room, store, WC and a shower room.  There is also an office, with velux windows and fitted shelving to the walls.  Upstairs, five double bedrooms (three with ensuite shower rooms) can be found off the bright landing.  The landing offers two linen cupboards and there is a hatch to the insulated loft space, with fitted drop-down ladder. The principal bedroom has built-in bedroom furniture and a super fully fitted walk-in wardrobe, as well as lovely views over the formal garden and an ensuite shower room.  All bedrooms boast fitted storage and large windows with open views.  The family bathroom, comprising bath, WC, bidet and wash hand basin, completes the accommodation. In all, the accommodation within the house extends to just over 4500 square feet. Outside Tetten Hall is set within just over 6 acres in all, with the field extending to 3.13 acres.   To the front of the house is a glorious, landscaped garden with extensive lawn, mature shrubs and trees, flowering borders and a water feature.  A pergola leads through to a charming rhododendron garden. To the rear of the house is a large garden, currently a little overgrown, with former fruit/vegetable garden and greenhouse.  Beyond here is the orchard, and access to the field and woodland.  It is worth noting there is also access to the top of the field from the lane located between the house and one of the neighbouring cottages.    The property is approached via a short section of shared drive (the driveway is owned by Tetten Hall) giving access to one neighbour, and then via a private section of driveway, culminating in a large courtyard with ample parking.  Outbuildings The outbuildings are stone built under slate roofs (re-roofed 5 years ago).  There are three large barns, and three smaller stores/workshops. All have power, light and concrete floors.  The large barn attached to the property also houses a large wood burner (which can heat the water and radiators, with the oil heating as a back-up).  There are also four stables, found to the side and rear of the barn. These outbuildings offer excellent storage and great potential, whether that be for use as home offices, a car collection, workshops or for housing livestock and/or machinery. Subject to planning consents, they may also be suitable for conversion. Field The field extends to 3.13 acres (1.2ha). The field is in good repair and is largely stock proof.  There is gated access from the orchard and additional access from the lane on the eastern boundary.  The land has been well managed and is in good heart.Water supply.
