6 Leisure suite A staircase leads down from the kitchen to the lower ground leisure suite with glass partitions enabling the scope of the space to be fully appreciated. Double glass doors open to the pool area, with a spa pool set into the marble ing and curved steps leading down between elegant columns to the pool itself. Bifold doors open out to a South-facing terrace with a circular, partly open-sided building, suitable for use as an outside bar or barbecue, to one side. The well-proportioned gym leads through to a master shower/changing and cloak, with additional shower s, a storage cupboard, a sauna and steam also located off the main hallway. To the far end lies a stunning cinema, with feature lighting, a plinth allowing for tiered seating, a bar and an expanse of bifold doors opening out to a sunken terrace. Staff flat A staff flat comprising a sitting /kitchen, bath and double bed is situated at first level, above the integral triple garage. Access is via a dedicated staircase leading from the side hall, with its door out to the parking area. Outside The attractive approach from the road is via a sweeping driveway through an avenue of neatly-clipped hornbeams and the property is set well within its own gardens which extend to about 3.58 acres. The driveway curves around a stunning Liquidambar before opening out to a generous turning and parking area in front of the house and integral garage, bordered by wide shrub beds planted for seasonal colour and texture. Gardens A paved terrace spans the rear of the house from which lawns sweep down towards the lake to the Northwest, providing a superb setting for outdoor living and entertaining. Steps and a path lead down from the terrace via a further circular terrace, bordered by box-edged rose and lavender beds with an ornamental pond at its centre, to the lake. An ample decked jetty offers an ideal spot for enjoyment of the surroundings and the wildlife it attracts. A gravel driveway leads off the main drive curving around the lake and on down to the timber barn, then becoming a rough track which continues on to the woodland and fields. A shingle path meets the driveway to the western end of the lake, forming a charming walking route back up to the house, which passes over a wooden bridge which crosses the first in a series of small ponds linked by waterfalls feeding the lake. Woodland and pasture The woodland lies to the far end of the garden, forming a buffer between the garden and the pasture. The latter extend to about acres and lie across the western extremity of the property, the furthest field abutting the private Warren Road to the North.
