Magnificent country house with spectacular gardens and grounds, stylish bohemian interiors and impressive equestrian facilities.

Ladyswood House has been significantly restored and refurbished by the present owners, and is now a sophisticated and eclectic family home, with the resources to entertain on a grand scale. Originally built in 1905, on the cusp of the Victorian and Edwardian eras, Ladyswood is a striking example of the architecture of that time but is not listed. Constructed of Cotswold stone, warm red brick and lime render, beneath a clay tile roof, with leaded light windows, set within stone mullioned frames. Intricately decorative brickwork features below the roof line and decorates the tall chimneys.
During their 25 year tenure, Ladyswood House has been extended and maintained throughout by the present owners. However, in 2018 they embarked on an extensive programme to update and improve. The house has been completely rewired and replumbed. A new kitchen and bathrooms have been installed throughout, with extensive additions, whilst carefully maintaining original architectural character and features.

The original pebbledash at first floor level has been replaced, unusually, with dark lime render which, with its softened hues, stunningly compliments the mellow red brick.
On entering the house, a wall of Belgium glass doors and panels look out over the delightful, enclosed courtyard, with its French style stone fountain at its centre.
From here, the large inner hall provides full height storage, hidden behind full height panelled walls, and a fireplace, with cloakroom, large boot room and study directly off.

The striking kitchen/breakfast/garden room forms the hub of the house, spanning its depth, with views stretching out over the stunning gardens to the front and rear.
Three sets of Belgium doors open to a stone terrace and outdoor kitchen terrace to one side. Two further sets of doors open from the garden room end to the front garden, and enchanting gazebo. Designed by Ben Argent Kitchens, dark contemporary cabinetry sits below veined composite worktops. Three sinks are formed from the same. A large island has an oak breakfast bar to one long side and a champagne sink in the centre. A huge roof lantern with rain sensitive windows floods the breakfast area of this room with natural light. The contemporary gas fireplace adds atmosphere for chillier days. Steps rise to the garden room end, where a wood burning stove nestles within a stone fireplace.
Directly off is the snug or playroom. The old hallway, with its striking staircase, and two quarter turns, rises to the first floor, with a three-sided galleried landing. This original main entrance to the house opens to the garden room and drawing room directly, with a cloakroom off.

Wood panelling to the walls of the drawing room, a window seat and fireplace with leather topped fender, make this an atmospheric room with doors opening to the garden. The dining room, just beyond, is wonderfully flamboyant and theatrical with vibrant walls, ornate stone fireplace and window seats to the large bay window.
Again, a door opens to the gardens. A corridor connects the drawing room and dining room directly with the kitchen. Off here is the media room, with its 85" plasma screen and surround sound, and a bespoke drinks cupboard. Accessed from the courtyard entrance hall is a large utility room, drying room, dog room with shower, and a further cloakroom. A door from the courtyard opens to a sunbed room and plant room with a spiral staircase rising to the large gym above. The four roomed cellar is accessible from just off the inner hall and has a second staircase to outside.
From the galleried landing on the first floor, the dual aspect principal bedroom suite faces south and east. The bedroom is a beautiful and tranquil room with lovely views to the garden. The bathroom has a freestanding, central rolltop bath with ball and claw feet, a separate shower and double vanity unit. The large dressing room has fitted wardrobes to three walls. All three rooms have fireplaces. Also on the first floor is a delightful guest bedroom with en suite shower room, four further bedrooms and two family bathrooms, one with separate bath and shower.
