New Tyning

The seamless blend of 19th century elegant Georgian style and character with 21st century comforts and contemporary colour palette, shapes this beautiful six-bedroom country residence set in around 1.5 acres of tranquil gardens, into the charming and practical home it is today.

This warm and welcoming home offers plenty of living space, throughout the original house and adjoining converted waggon house, and has six double bedrooms upstairs. Substantially modernised throughout, the property maintains the integrity of the two original buildings whilst sensitively introducing modern underfloor heating downstairs beneath beautiful, tiled flooring. There is also oil-fired central heating which is complemented by log burners in the drawing and dining rooms. These are light, well-proportioned rooms, which provide intimate seating areas and sociable entertaining spaces together with a library, sitting room and conservatory which are all situated around a central hallway on this side of the property.

The waggon house was thoughtfully converted to create a large kitchen on the ground floor and bedrooms on the upper floor. The kitchen spans the depth of the building with views to the front and rear gardens. It has a traditional farmhouse feel with an Aga, an array of storage and ample space for a large breakfast table. A spacious second hallway connects the kitchen to the rest of the house and has doors out to the gardens on both sides, plenty of cupboards and a cloakroom. Two sets of staircases lead to the first floor: the main stairs are in the central entrance hall of the main house; and the second stairs are hidden away in the corner of the kitchen.

The six double bedrooms are upstairs, each with its own unique features and charm characteristic of a period property. Four of the bedrooms and the family bathroom are in the ‘Georgian’ side of the house, accessed via the main staircase. The master bedroom has an ensuite shower room and dressing area which also links through to the other side of the house. The two further bedrooms can be accessed from the kitchen staircase. They overlook the rear garden and share a shower room.

Outside

New Tyning is a magical space, hidden from view, and stepping through the gate is like stepping back in time. Off a tranquil leafy lane, the driveway sweeps around the lawn to the front of the house, its garages and workshop. Extensive, level, mature and beautiful gardens stretch out at the rear of the house, leading from the more formal gardens to the productive kitchen gardens with polytunnel, greenhouse, fruit cages and various wooden and stone sheds. This private garden continues further with an orchard where the current owners keep beehives. The plot measures approximately 1.48 acres in total.
