DETAILS

Accommodation

This architecturally remarkable property combines the elegance and grand proportions of Victorian design with modern luxury and offers a spacious layout perfect for both relaxation and entertaining.

To the front, a welcoming hallway leads to a large lounge bathed in natural light from windows on three sides. Opposite, the formal dining room sets the scene for large family gatherings but could also be used in a number of different ways, and separate from this, a cosy snug offers a perfect retreat.

Kitchen Breakfast Room

At the heart of this home though is the amazing kitchen / breakfast room which can't fail to impress. The bespoke Smallbone kitchen comes fully equipped with top-tier appliances by Sub Zero, Wolf, Gaggenau and Miele and would meet the requirements of even the most exacting chef. Bi-fold doors across one wall open onto the rear terrace and gardens, linking this space effortlessly with the outdoors. A handily positioned cloakroom, boot room and generous utility complete the ground floor accommodation within the main house.

First and Second Floors

The first and second floors house four luxurious bedroom suites and a mezzanine lounge / bedroom.
The principal benefits from a spacious dressing room which could easily be transformed into a nursery, and a well-appointed en-suite bathroom. Across the landing, the guest suite also has its own dressing area and en-suite.
The second floor reveals another unexpected surprise - a beautiful mezzanine lounge or additional bedroom with triple-aspect windows and a private balcony that offers sweeping views of the garden. Two additional good size double bedrooms, each with their own en-suite bathrooms, complete this floor.

15th Century Normandy Barn

Connecting seamlessly to the main house is the first of the stunning Normandy barns. Dating from the 15th Century, this bonus additional versatile space currently houses two carports and a garden store on the ground floor, while on the upper level, there is a large triple-aspect office space with magnificent views of the grounds, making it an unparalleled environment for a home office or creative studio. The barn also offers potential for conversion into further family living space or charming annexe (subject to planning).

18th Century Normandy Barn

A unique feature of "Appletrees" is the beautiful, detached 18th-century Normandy barn. The vendors transformed this into a successful Golf Coaching Academy. With its vast vaulted ceiling, first floor mezzanine and luxury bathroom facilities, this space is both impressive and functional, and while it was designed as a specialist golf facility, it offers incredible potential for alternative uses, subject to planning approval.

For Golfers

It is a great space to enjoy with golfing friends and what a boast to host your very own corporate day (just hire a Pro for the day) especially combining the event with a round of golf at nearby Chart Hills (five minutes away). Whether you wish to continue its legacy as a golfing facility or repurpose it for other professional or leisure pursuits or even conversion to home living, this space presents a rare opportunity in an extraordinary location.

Outside

A unique sporting playground offering the finest piece of Golfing Real Estate that you will find anywhere in the country. Designed by the vendor, one of the UK’s leading golf coaches, it has garnered international acclaim with the PGA describing it as ‘World Class’. One terrace overlooks the Golf Academy’s dedicated outside space where there is a specialised Short Game practice facility, including a Chipping Green, Championship Putting Green, Splash Bunker and a St Andrews Revetted Bunker. The facility, the private and peaceful setting makes it the perfect place to refine your game.

The Grounds

The two-acre grounds are meticulously maintained and feature wonderfully mature planting and trees, a meandering stream and two ponds that add to the beauty of the landscape, while several terraces and patio offer perfect spots for outdoor dining and relaxation
