Description
A unique opportunity to enjoy a beautiful home in a private, woodland setting Highfield The original house was designed by renowned architects, Robinson Keefe & Devane in the early 1960's. Its later development was designed by Robin Mandal, RIAC ex-President in 1996 and again in 2001. Highfield is a beautifully imagined and meticulously maintained residence that offers privacy, comfort, and modern conveniences. Set well back from the road, the property boasts spacious living and dining spaces, extensive bedroom accommodation and not to mention well equipped equestrian facilities in a mature woodland setting. The house, Highfield, sits on an elevated position set to the rear of its site offering beautiful views of the surrounding farmland and the Lowfield Deer Park. Accessed via formal cast iron and stone piers with electric gates, Highfield is approached along a tree lined avenue, which leads to a parking area to the side of the house. The entrance hall sets the tone for this warm and inviting home. To its right, a study/library with high ceiling and bay window offering a quiet space for work or reading and to the left, a private cloakroom. Straight ahead, the drawing room is bright and welcoming with floor to ceiling bay windows, a solid fuel stove, beautiful décor and private, own door access to the terrace to the front of the house. The formal dining room, also with bay window is ideal for entertaining, comfortably seating 8 or more guests. The front kitchen and living area with barrel vaulted, panelled ceiling is both stylish and practical, featuring a Stanley Stove, French doors to the terrace, bay window seating and fully fitted kitchen units with marble countertops. Its second kitchen, off the main kitchen offers an informal dining space, plenty of storage and easy access to the utility/boot room with back door access to the rear cobble locked courtyard. A separate sitting room/TV room provides another cozy area ideal for teenagers or grown children with an oil-fired stove and complete with French doors to the gardens to the side of the house and the internal courtyard. The bedrooms in Highfield are well equipped with a master bedroom with ensuite and walk in wardrobe and 4 double bedrooms, all of which are bright, well cared for and serviced by attached 4 family bathrooms.

Upstairs above the stables and accessed by French doors is an open plan loft, centrally heated and high ceilinged, living room offers the buyer multifunctional space with an independent access ideal for an office, clinic or extra space for children.
