7 bedroom house

Chilworth Hill is a substantial country house with well-proportioned reception rooms on the ground floor that are equally suited to entertaining as to day to day family life. The house has a wonderful combination of comfortable rooms and traditional features with sensational views over the gardens towards St Martha Hill and Newlands Corner.

The front door leads into the grand entrance hall and garden room off which there is a formal dining room with beautiful views, drawing room, and a study. Off the entrance hall is a utility/boot room and cloakroom and to the rear of the house are the kitchens, pantries and staff sitting room.

Upstairs off the grand mezzanine landing are 5 bedrooms, two of which are en suite. There is a further bathroom and separate cloakroom. There is also a self-contained flat which can be accessed off the landing and also from downstairs via the backstairs. This contains a kitchen, sitting room/dining room, two bedrooms and a bathroom.

The grounds around Chilworth Hill boast beautifully laid lawns, mature trees and immaculate hedging and offer a lovely setting for country living. The house sits with spectacular views over stunning rolling hills of pasture land and woodland. On the east side of the house there is a long terrace that gives views over the gardens below and Newlands Corner on the horizon. Lot 1 consists of approximately 96.72 acres, of which 72.11 acres is pasture and 19.96 acres is woodland.

There are two well-sized 3 bedroom semi-detached cottages at the bottom of the drive to Chilworth Hill, providing further accommodation and potential for income. These are both let on Assured Shorthold Tenancies.

The farm buildings at Sample Oak Farm (Lot 2) are situated to the north east of the house, near Chilworth village and station. The site contains a total of nine buildings offering stabling and agricultural uses. These buildings offer the potential for development, subject to planning permission. Lot 2 consists of approximately 5.32 acres, of which 1.72 acres is pasture and 2.48 acres is woodland.

Lot 3 (Land at Blackheath) contains a singular open sided agricultural building to the west of the pasture land on the periphery of the woodland. There is a disused sporting pavilion at the entrance overlooking the expansive grassland. Both of these buildings have potential for development, subject to planning permission. Lot 3 benefits from expansive views over the pasture and a mix of mature woodland. In the past there has been a family shoot on the estate and the land lends itself perfectly for hacking and a potential cross-country course. Lot 3 consists of approximately 99.57 acres, of which 43.37 acres is pasture and 56.2 acres is woodland.
