3 LOCATION Earlswood House stands in a favoured residential area to the south west of Wolverhampton City Centre in a predominantly built up area and yet it enjoys a high degree of privacy and seclusion. The house lies within easy reach of the wide ranging local amenities available within Penn and the pretty village of Wombourne and there is easy access to the extensive amenities afforded by Wolverhampton City Centre itself. Stourbridge, Dudley and Birmingham are all within convenient travelling distance with national rail services running from Wolverhampton Station (London Euston approximately 1 hour 40 minutes) and the M5 and M6 facilitating access to the motorway network. The area is well served by schooling in both sectors with the Royal School, Wolverhampton Grammar School, Tettenhall College and the Girls High School all being worthy of note. DESCRIPTION Earlswood House is a fine, period country residence style mansion which probably dates from the Regency Period and which has elevations of enormous architectural merit and attraction. The house stands well back from the road behind a long and winding drive which leads to an inner courtyard with an extensive range of garaging. There are elegant, formal reception rooms of exceptional calibre and more informal living areas providing comfortable everyday living space. There are seven en-suite bedrooms to the first floor together with two further bedrooms and a bathroom to the upper storey. In addition to the main house there is an extensive range of leisure facilities including a pool complex with temperature controlled indoor swimming pool with underwater music system, a gymnasium, a garden room, a snooker room and an extensive banqueting room, all of which make the house ideal for entertaining on a grand and lavish scale. The house stands within outstanding grounds with formal and informal lawns, woodland, floodlit tennis court and paddock and a total area of approximately 9.5 acres.
