Shobrooke

Shobrooke House is set in a commanding position overlooking its beautiful grounds of approximately 6.56 acres and the surrounding rolling countryside. The property dates from the 18th century and has recently undergone an extensive renovation to provide a fine country home offering a wealth of beautifully presented accommodation extending to just under 6,000 sq ft. The property has been sensitively modernised to combine the amenities of modern living whilst retaining a wealth of original details including impressive fireplaces, an Oak staircase, high ceilings and large sash windows alongside elegant, high-quality fixtures and fittings. Shobrooke House occupies a peaceful yet well connected edge-of-village position with an extensive range of amenities just 2 miles away. The property also benefits from several outbuildings providing further development opportunities subject to obtaining the necessary consents as well as an outdoor swimming pool.

The property features five well-appointed reception rooms across the ground floor offering flexible accommodation. The generous drawing room has an impressive fireplace and welcomes plenty of natural light, with a bay window that includes French doors that open onto the south-facing terrace. There is also a welcoming library with a dual aspect and an original fireplace as well as a formal dining room. At the rear of the house is an additional reception space currently used as a dining area and a useful study. The well-proportioned kitchen and breakfast room has shaker-style storage units, a large central island with a breakfast bar, integrated appliances and an Aga. A utility provides additional generous space for storage and appliances with the ground floor accommodation completed by a family shower room and a cloakroom.

The sweeping central staircase leads to the first-floor landing, off which there are four bedrooms, three of which take advantage of a south-facing aspect and offer far-reaching countryside views. One bedroom also benefits from an adjoining dressing room. The first floor has a large, luxury family bathroom with a freestanding bathtub and a walk-in shower, as well as an additional spacious shower room. A corridor from the landing provides access to a further two double bedrooms which can also be accessed via a staircase at the rear of the property offering a flexible layout and opportunities to create an annexe if desired.

This property has 6.56 acres of land.
