Description
Westbrook Hall is a sensational country house. At 8,000 sq ft the house provides generous family living and is ideal for entertaining. The principal rooms are typical of the era, being beautifully proportioned and elegant with impressive ceiling heights. These rooms lead from a central and welcoming entrance hallway and include a drawing room, sitting room/family room and a lovely kitchen breakfast room with aga.

The main house provides 7 double bedrooms. The triple aspect principal bedroom provides a wonderful ensuite and attractive oak fitted wardrobes. The main guest bedroom also provides an en suite shower room (with sauna).

Running across the back of the house is the integral annexe, an ideal space for guests or live in relatives. Our clients have obtained permission recently to extend the house creating a dining room leading from the kitchen and quite significant ancillary accommodation.

The property is accessed via automated wrought-iron gates up a long private driveway. The drive proceeds to the front of the house, or around to the side where the garage can be found. The property sits well in its highly private, parkland style mature gardens, surrounded by beautiful lawns and numerous specimen trees including Cedars, Blue fir, Eucalyptus, Scots pine, Robinia and Rhododendrons. On the southern elevation is a pool area, enclosed by secure fencing with a lockable gate.

Across from the property is a spacious paddock. The property has a lovely natural western boundary of the North River, set well beneath the level of the house.
