8 bedroom house

From Campston Hill, the long drive leads down to the attractive stone farm building which provides the arched entrance to the courtyard. A garden path leads up to the front door and into the panelled entrance hall off which are the drawing and dining rooms.
The drawing room is a light filled room with parquet flooring and decorative plaster work, of particular note is the marble mantelpiece with Wedgewood Jasperware plaques. Opposite is the spacious dining room with parquet flooring, plaster moulding as well as frame and panel wainscoting. Both rooms benefit from double doors directly opposite each other which, when open, create a large entertaining space. The hall then leads to the library, a comfortable room with French doors to the outdoor dining terrace and the garden.
Leading from the hall through an arch is the elegant inner hall with stone staircase leading to the first floor. The hand forged wrought iron balustrade is topped with an oak hand rail and extends to the second floor with an atrium above.

Beyond the stairs is the large Johnny Grey designed kitchen complete with an AGA and a substantial handcrafted island to the centre. The bespoke finishes add to the family feel making it the hub of the house. The kitchen leads to a connected breakfast room and dining area with green oak beams, an open fire and doors to a raised stone terrace providing outdoor dining space. Beyond this is a further room suitable to a multitude of uses such as a playroom, snug or cinema room and also provides a rear entrance.
From the breakfast room, a spiral staircase leads to a state of the art wine cellar with extensive dry storage capacity, naturally ventilated and maintaining the correct temperature. Beyond the kitchen is a large utility room with a back door, plumbing for white goods and Belfast sink.

Upstairs the first floor comprises 6 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms and an office, all reached from the expansive landing. The master bedroom comprises a spacious suite of rooms including a dressing room with fitted wardrobes, bathroom and shower. Four of the other large bedrooms are of a more formal nature.
The second floor comprises two further bedrooms and two bathrooms as well as a large attic well suited to use as a playroom. There is also a door out to the garden.
Adjoining the house beyond the playroom and a covered arch are a further two store rooms which could provide further accommodation if required.
