Huoneisto Gloucestershire: 2 myytävänä olevaa kiinteistöä

Asunto myytävänä - Set within the historic Sherborne House, a Grade II -listed country estate with origins dating back over 500 years, this grand apartment offers a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial home within one of the Cotswolds’ most architecturally significant buildings. Occupying the first and second floors of the south-east wing, it is the largest of the principal apartments, extending to approximately 3,288 sq ft. Arranged within the original footprint of the building, the apartment retains an exceptional sense of scale and character throughout. The proportions and flow are both intuitive and elegant, with rooms unfolding in a manner that feels both natural and deliberate. A discreet and professional on-site team, including caretaker, housekeeper and gardener, provides attentive support while in residence and reassurance when away. A grand entrance hall, framed by Murano wall lights, sets the tone and leads into a handsome reception room, a space that, in most houses, would serve as the principal room. From here, the apartment opens into the extraordinary great hall and dining room. The 24-foot ceilings create a defining interior of remarkable volume and presence. Soaring height and intricate period detailing lend a strong sense of occasion, while the space remains entirely liveable, equally suited to entertaining and everyday use. Originally shaped in the 1840s by the celebrated architect Anthony Salvin, the great hall and dining room retain richly moulded plasterwork, timber panelling and a finely carved working fireplace. Seven double-height windows frame far reaching views across manicured and natural parkland, drawing in exceptional natural light and strengthening the connection to the surrounding landscape. The furnishings have been carefully curated to complement the history and architectural richness of the apartment and are available by separate negotiation, allowing for a turn-key acquisition if desired. The kitchen provides a contemporary counterpoint, overlooking the cloister and integrating comfortably within the overall plan. Bedroom accommodation is arranged to create a house-like feel: the principal bedroom benefits from a dressing room, while two further double bedrooms offer flexibility for family life, guests or working from home. En-suite bathrooms and a utility room are thoughtfully positioned to ensure ease of day-to-day living. Residents also benefit from access to a private orangery, tennis court and wellness centre with heated swimming pool. The surrounding landscape is quintessential Cotswold countryside, and the house has significant historic importance. Built circa 1520 and visited twice by Queen Elizabeth I, it has evolved through significant 17th- and 19th-century enhancements to create the striking composition seen today. Its 12 acres of grounds sit within over 4,000 acres of protected National Trust village, parkland and farmland, much of which has remained virtually unchanged since the 19th century. Sherborne sits in a particularly beautiful stretch of the Cotswolds, surrounded by rolling countryside and some of the region’s most picturesque villages. Northleach is nearby for day-to-day essentials, while Burford, Stow-on-the-Wold and Bourton-on-the-Water are all within easy reach. Cheltenham and Cirencester broaden the offering further, making this an especially appealing setting for those seeking a quieter pace of life without feeling isolated.
