Impressive character family home of excellent proportions with tennis court, set within beautiful established gardens, situated in the exclusive Wildernesse Estate.
Description
Red Court is a most impressive family home dating from the 1930s, retaining some character features from the period, with versatile and generously proportioned accommodation arranged over two floors.
Salient points include beautiful open fireplaces to principal reception rooms, spacious reception hall, attractive mostly original multipaned Crittal windows and a tennis court. All principal reception rooms enjoy views over and access to the delightful gardens.
The property is set in established gardens and grounds which provide a wonderful backdrop with a high degree of privacy and seclusion, and in total the plot amounts to about 1.42 acres.
The impressive reception hall with wood panelling and attractive staircase rising to the first floor is a welcoming space which together with the principal reception rooms, provide excellent areas for formal and informal entertaining.
Principal reception rooms comprise the triple aspect drawing room which has an impressive open stone fireplace, together with double doors leading to the rear terrace. The dining room with its period features, including an open brick fireplace and picture rail, enjoys views and access to the garden. The dual aspect sitting room provides an ideal space for family living with a fireplace and double doors leading to the gardens.
The dual aspect kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a comprehensive range of wall and base cupboards and a matching island unit. There is a four door gas fired aga and space for further appliances. An adjoining and generous utility room has additional storage, space for appliances and outside access.
There is also a study with southerly garden views.
A cloakroom and storage cupboard complete the ground floor accommodation.
Arranged over the first floor is the principal bedroom suite comprising a spacious double aspect bedroom with built in storage cupboards, a dressing room with further built in storage and an en suite bathroom with separate shower.
There is a second bedroom on this floor with an en suite bathroom with separate shower and built in storage cupboards and three further bedrooms, two with built in storage cupboards, all served by a family shower room.
The detached triple garage has power and water connected and benefits from a versatile studio to the first floor.
The property is centrally positioned within its established grounds and is approached via a carriage driveway which sweeps past the garaging and tennis court, curving round to the front of the property, before continuing down the other side to a second entry/exit from/to Park Lane.
The beautifully maintained gardens are equally arranged to the front and rear of the property. To the front there is an expanse of manicured lawn interspersed with mature shrubs and trees, underplanted with seasonal perennials and established planting to the perimeter providing privacy. A path from the house leads to the fully enclosed tennis court. There is a greenhouse and cage for growing fruit and vegetables against the north boundary wall.
To the rear is a paved terrace, providing an ideal area for al fresco entertaining, with a generous area of lawn continuing the length of the plot. The garden is part walled with an attractive display of pleached fruit trees, and is bordered to the rear with an abundance of mature specimen trees and established shrubs. There is an underground air raid shelter presently used as a wine cellar. In total the plot amounts to about 1.42 acres.
