From the moment you step through the front door, the home’s rich history and fine craftsmanship are evident. The formal entrance hall sets the tone, with original beamed ceilings, wide wooden flooring, and a grand staircase rising elegantly to the first floor. From here, one is led through a series of atmospheric and inviting reception rooms, each thoughtfully preserved with period features such as stone fireplaces, flagged floors, deep-set mullion windows and exposed timber beams.
To the front, a beautifully appointed study exudes character with its ornate fireplace and log-burning stove—an ideal space for quiet contemplation or working from home. A nearby cloakroom with decorative features and bespoke storage continues the attention to detail seen throughout. The snug lounge, warm and intimate with its beamed ceiling and multi-fuel burner set into a carved stone surround, opens through double doors to a spectacular conservatory. This glass-fronted space, with its stone-flagged floor and full-height windows, frames stunning countryside views and offers a peaceful retreat to enjoy the changing seasons.
At the heart of the home lies the generous dining room, boasting a vaulted beamed ceiling, wooden flooring and a robust multi-fuel stove nestled in a stone hearth. It flows perfectly into the traditional farmhouse kitchen—a true centrepiece of family life. Here, a bespoke combination of wood and granite worktops, an Aga, central island and Belfast sink are complemented by flagstone floors and French doors to the garden. A secondary hallway leads to the practical utility area, complete with corner shower, Belfast sink, and tiled floors, alongside a traditional pull-chain WC - again blending charm and function with ease.
Rising to the first floor via the grand staircase - or a tucked-away stone stepped spiral stair from the lounge - one finds four beautifully proportioned double bedrooms arranged off a generous split level landing. The principal suite is an exquisite sanctuary, complete with dressing area, dual-aspect windows and access to a luxurious spa-style bathroom. This magnificent space features a walk-in wet room shower, large Jacuzzi Airbath set on tiled steps, integrated ceiling speakers, and even an infrared sauna—perfect for complete relaxation.
The second bedroom enjoys a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams, warm wood flooring, and a charming en-suite with walk-in wardrobe, while the third and fourth bedrooms offer their own distinct characters. One features a striking stone fireplace and en-suite shower room, while the other is set beneath a pitched roof with beamed ceilings and rich views of the gardens and surrounding hills.
Externally, the grounds are just as impressive as the interior. Sweeping lawns wrap around the house, interspersed with patio areas ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining. A detached garage, workshop and garden store add flexibility and scope, whether for hobbies, vehicles or conversion potential. Previous planning permission had been approved for the conversion of the garage into a three bedroom detached home - perfect for extended family or potential holiday let use. Mature hedgerows, flowerbeds, substantial timber tree house, tranquil seating areas and large lawned gardens complete the picture—every corner of the garden invites exploration or quiet reflection.
Eddyholes is a home of rare provenance and exceptional presence—steeped in history, yet fully equipped for contemporary life. With its awe-inspiring views, private setting, and meticulous restoration, it presents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire a true English country gem.
