The house, built by the Grenville Homes Group, is modern but the materials, fittings and craftsmanship reflect thorough attention to the standards adhered to centuries ago.
The ground floor has a combined open plan kitchen/family room/breakfast area, along with dining, drawing and sitting rooms and a study.
A master suite with his and her en suites is the major feature on the first floor. Four other bedrooms also are on this level.
A bonus is the au pair suite on the upper floor, which shouldn't make it too difficult to find decent live-in staff.
Security is de rigueur with movement sensors and panic buttons in the entrance hall and master suite. A video entry link between fully automated entrance gates and the house keeps out strangers, but admits friends and family.
Other features within the £2.85 million price tag include: an elegant American white oak staircase, ‘star lines’ enabling access of up to five lines per telephone point, under-floor heating and fully landscaped gardens.
