Broxmead Court

With red brick and tile-hung elevations, this attractive, period home, was extensively renovated by the current owners in 2017, which strikes a stylish balance between the past and present. Just one of two homes created from a grand manor house, Broxmead Court boasts private ownership of 5 acres of land including an impressive walled garden.

Upon entering the home the wood flooring in the generous hall provides practicality and a sense of harmony extending across much of the lower floor reception rooms. These comprise a light-filled, elegant drawing room with panelling up to a dado rail and a feature fireplace, formal dining room which offers the ideal setting for both family meals and entertaining guests, and a well-proportioned study. Double doors open into the bright, kitchen/breakfast room which is fitted with handmade contemporary cabinetry topped with stone work surfaces and has an island unit in complementary tone. There is also a large utility room with an adjacent cloakroom.

On the floor above, step level changes add interest and the principal bedroom has a decorative fireplace, a dressing room and a well-appointed en suite shower room. There are three further bedrooms, one of which has access to en suite facilities and one has a feature fireplace. There are two bathrooms, one situated on the first floor and the second on the floor above with skylight windows (with potential for the creation of a roof terrace, subject to the necessary consents) and an adjacent bedroom.
