Hollingham House is a most impressive looking and beautifully situated period house with origins dating back, we believe, to 1715 and with more recent additions. The extension to the east end of the house was added in 2005, with much use being made of oak and glass. The additional rooms and balcony take full advantage of the glorious view.
The accommodation is well proportioned and arranged over two floors with a large roof space above, which provides excellent potential for a further bedroom suite, subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents. It is beautifully presented and full of charm and character, with wonderful ceiling heights, period features such as exposed beams, and stone fireplaces in the lovely dining room and lounge.
The stunning principal bedroom suite is light and airy with an oak-framed vaulted ceiling and access to a covered balcony. There is a fantastic guest suite which is a beautifully decorated, with an en suite shower and WC and views down the valley.
Gardens and grounds:
The house has two driveway accesses and is approached off Hollingham Lane through a wooden five-bar gate with a gravelled drive leading down to the front of the property. The lower driveway has a large parking area in front of an impressive Cotswold stone detached double garage, ideal for sports or classic cars. Above the garage is a bedroom suite accessed by external stairs. This is ideal for guests or could be used as an Airbnb, gym or office.
The garden is a true delight, lovingly cared for and planted by the current owners, with various areas where you can enjoy the tranquil and stunning southerly setting and views down this beautiful valley. To the front of the house are level lawn areas with a fine mature beech tree and an orchard to the side.
Steps lead down to a lower terrace, which adjoins an open field, with an impressive vegetable garden and a range of fruit trees retained by a Cotswold stone wall. To the far side of the garden is a shed and a greenhouse in addition to a garden store at the head of the main entrance.
Services:
Mains water and electricity. Oil-fired central heating. Private treatment plant.
