Full Description
This house was once the home of a Russian Princess and has an intriguing history. Many original features remain including the marble tiled floors and ornate woodwork. The Italian styled garden invites you to stroll amongst the trees and shrubs and then to sit peacefully, perhaps with a glass of local wine! This is a real Maison de Maitre.
The entrance is grand, a set of wooden double doors lead you in to a marble floored hallway that is the centre point of the ground floor. Straight ahead are french doors that provide access to the garden, whilst off to either side are a total of 3 reception rooms and a large kitchen. The beautiful wide wooden stairway takes a turn at a stained glass window and then up to the bedroom level where there are 4 double bedrooms and two bathrooms. A further flight of stairs takes you to the attic level that comprises 2 further bedrooms and a large attic/storage space.
As mentioned, the gardens are truly wonderful and at the furthest point is a large building converted into a combination of conservatory and art studio. Two more outbuildings are accessed from the garden.
A truly magnificent property that fires the imagination.
