About this property

Old Felbridge House is a

substantial detached property,

believed to date from around

1768 with nineteenth century

additions. The property offers

light, well-presented

accommodation arranged over

two floors, with neutral décor and

pretty landscaped gardens.

The entrance hall sets the scene,

with a tiled floor, feature fireplace

with a lovely oak mantel, and

spacious coats and shoe

cupboard. There is a door to the

sitting room, and double doors

opening to the inner hallway,

leading in turn to the dining room.

Situated in the oldest portion of

the house, the dining room

showcases some lovely period

features including timber beams,

lattice windows, the old front door

and bell and an impressive

sixteenth century inglenook

fireplace. The original staircase,

has been converted to a drinks

cupboard. The dining room gives

access to the

kitchen/breakfast/family room, a

wonderful open plan space which

is formed from the later extension

and is particularly suited to

modern family life.

The kitchen is well-equipped with

a good range of wall hung and

under-counter units,

complemented by quartz

worktops and integrated

appliances including a SMEG

double oven, Hotpoint five burner

gas stove with extractor over,

dishwasher, tall fridge and a

further fridge/freezer, and is

served by an equally well-

equipped utility/preparation room

with plenty of storage, built-in

freezers, and access to both the

rear garden and the garage.

The kitchen opens to the

breakfast/family dining area,

which has a seated bay window

overlooking the front and in turn

opens to the family room. From

here, a door leads back to the

dining room and double doors

lead through to the reading room

and sitting room, with fireplace,

creating wonderful flow and

allowing these rooms to be

opened up when entertaining.

The reading room and sitting

room share a large window and

bay window, offering plenty of

space to sit and enjoy the outlook

over the front garden.

From the inner hall and lying to

the rear of the house are the

library/cinema room, games

room, conservatory and gym,

which also has plumbing for

laundry appliances and a range of

wall-hung and under-counter

units. Adjoining the gym and

leading back to the entrance hall

is a short corridor giving access to

a storeroom, the boiler room, the

larder and the cloakroom.

On the first floor, the principal

suite comprises a bedroom,

dressing room with fitted

wardrobes (currently also used as

a study), and an en suite

bathroom.

short drive offering off-street

further parking is provided ahead

0.4 of an acre, and are mainly

enclosed by beech hedging to the

front and coniferous hedging to

the side and rear; a spectacular

tall double wall running along the

north eastern boundary screens

This wall is set with a gate, which

once gave villagers access to the

well which still sits within the

grounds of Old Felbridge House.

red brick pathway leading to the

open porch, with mature jasmine

and wisteria planted. The

landscaped into distinct sections;
