Grade II Listed splendour in an idyllic setting
Combining seclusion and a splendid setting with great accessibility, Sellet Hall is a truly special property - a fabulous package of house, ancillary accommodation, gardens, land and stables - everything you could need to enjoy a country lifestyle.
With a perfect blend of period features and modern appointments, this Grade II Listed farmhouse, believed to be one of the oldest farmhouses in South Lakeland, dates back to the late 16th Century with later alterations and additions including a 17th Century staircase wing and mid 19th century extension to the south.
After a thorough refurbishment over the last 12 years, the exceptional standard of finish gives much to be admired. Local company Mark James designed and built a beautiful kitchen and the fitted bedroom furniture - together with bespoke, luxury soft furnishings (the drawing room curtains are by Zoffany with the principal bedroom curtains by Mulberry) this creates a classically styled, tasteful interior for modern day living against the backdrop of architectural features.
It's hard not to be impressed by the original period features - they add a sense of history, immense character and charm - there's a splendid oak staircase, mullion windows, substantial stone fireplaces, boarded doors with Suffolk latches, recess niches, oak window lintels and exposed wall and ceiling timbers and stone work.
For comfortable family living, the main house provides spacious and well proportioned living with an approximate gross internal area of 3470 sq ft (322.4 sq m).
Sellet Hall
Make an entrance through the traditional stone and slate Westmorland porch into the central hall. Off here you'll find the spacious dual aspect drawing room with tall mullions and stone fireplace with flagged hearth and wood burner. Across from the drawing room is the dining room with wood burner set on flagged hearth and tall mullions.
From here, walk into the luxurious living kitchen with a WOW factor of its own. Fitted with a comprehensive range of base and wall units with marble worktops, matching curved island unit with breakfast bar, a useful pantry cupboard, two-oven electric Aga with adjacent electric module, integral applicances including refrigerator, freezer, two dishwashers, microwave and drinks cooler. Backing up the kitchen, is a practical utility/boot room with cloakroom.
To complete the ground floor, there is an office/study with built in cupboards.
The impressive staircase leads to the first and second floors. Off the half landing is a four piece house bathroom. Off the first floor landing there are three double bedrooms; the dual aspect principal bedroom has an exposed stone wall and fireplace with wood burner, a dressing room with fitted furniture and a shower room. Bedroom 2 has an en suite shower room and mirrored sliding doors, which open up to a dressing room/walk in wardrobe.
To the second floor, there are two further bedrooms and a cloakroom, all with under eaves storage. The second floor landing has restricted head height because of the cruck beams.
The Bothy
A detached stone and slate two storey one bedroom cottage (460 sq ft [42.7 sq m]) with an open plan living kitchen and shower room. This is perfect for a dependent relative, guests or as a holiday let.
Gardens and grounds
An electric gated entrance leads down a splendid tree-lined drive opening to a large parking area. There's a substantial detached garage with electric barn doors, personal door, power, light and staircase leading to excellent first floor storage. Log stores and dog kennels.
Beautifully manicured lawns with established shrubs and mature trees, seating terraces and a hard court tennis court. There is also a large productive kitchen garden with greenhouse and attractive central cobbled path to the south of the tennis court.
Land and stables
Pasture land c. 5.21 acres (2.11 hectares) flank the drive to the north and south.
Also to the north, is a self contained stable yard with two stables, tack room/storage, washroom and solarium (gross external measurement, 914 sq ft² [85 m²]). Hay storage. Room for trailer/lorry and tractor space for muck removal.
All in all, a truly impressive property.
