An exquisite country home with an elegant Queen Anne façade and potentially older origins, Closewood House is believed to have originally been part of the Southwick estate. The property presents a unique opportunity to acquire a family home with excellent proportions set within extensive grounds, offering in excess of 3,000 square feet of accommodation.

The property is approached via a gravel carriage driveway, which brings one to the front of the house, with its stucco fronted elevation and charming rose clad veranda extending across the entire frontage. The front door opens onto a generous hallway with flagstone flooring and underfloor heating, built in cabinetry and doors onto the principal reception rooms. The drawing room is a handsome room with bespoke bookshelves along one wall, ornate cornicing and plasterwork, marble fireplace and French doors onto the garden. The dining room sits between the entrance hall and the kitchen, and provides an excellent entertaining space with feature fireplace, period oak floorboards and French doors. The kitchen / breakfast room has a range of bespoke solid wood units double butler sink and electric AGA, and also has doors onto the veranda. Additional ground floor accommodation includes a sitting room, which is ideal for less formal family use, downstairs w/c, utility / cellar and boot room.

First floor accommodation includes 5 bedrooms, and a further dressing room which could also be used as a sixth bedroom if required. There are two bathrooms, one of which has a shower, and the other contains a shower and a bath. The configuration could be altered if required to provide a principal suite with en suite bathroom.

Outside
Externally there is a useful study, connected to the main house and accessed externally, providing an ideal space to work from home. Outbuildings include a substantial stone barn with a myriad of potential uses, store room and greenhouse.

The gardens and grounds are a particular feature of the property, with a mix of formal lawned gardens, a rectangular rill with lily pond, and an expanse of parkland which has been carefully designed and cultivated to provide a stunning arboretum, with a wide variety of mature specimen trees. This area culminates in a stream at the far end of the plot, which is a delightful haven for wildlife. There is also a tennis court and meadow which will provide the incoming purchaser with a fabulous area for a family to enjoy and explore.
