Property description
A stunning three bedroom family home with a beautiful mature South facing garden in an exclusive location within the historic Shute House.
A rare opportunity to rent a three bedroom family home, in a private courtyard location, it forms part of the East Wing of Shute House.
On the ground floor, this deceptively spacious property offers an incredible Carrara marble topped bespoke kitchen/dining room, with antique fireplace, Clearview woodburner, and indoor storage for logs. The large kitchen island has ample storage including a built-in Miele dishwasher, and there is a new induction double oven Rangemaster installed. A cook’s dream!
Leading on from the kitchen there is an additional living room, and access to the rear garden. This has a large patio for eating, a herb garden, lawn, and deep mature planted borders with a greenhouse.
Downstairs there is also a good entrance hall for coat and shoe cupboards, as well as a separate utility room (fitted with Miele washing machine and Miele condenser dryer), as well as a downstairs WC.
Upstairs, the property boasts three well-proportioned double bedrooms each enjoying sea views on the horizon, with the master bedroom also benefitting from a new en-suite marble shower room.
There is also a new family bathroom similarly decorated, also featuring stunning views across the fields to the sea.
The property also benefits from use of a South facing area of communal land with a tennis court overlooking the sea, which can be accessed from the private drive.
