About this property

This more than a century-old Grade II listed home is the work of the influential architect and designer C.F.A. Voysey, considered one of the founders of the English Arts & Crafts movement. This delightful home is typical of his style with its long rectangular form, leaded windows with stone mullions and surrounds, angled buttresses and roughcast finishing.

Voysey built houses which were the embodiment of homeliness - something he described as conveying a sense of peace and security, comfort, ease and simplicity. Myholme is a particularly wide home that is flooded with natural light, even on the gloomiest of days and with so many windows, in particular on the southern elevation, it’s clear to see why. Upon entering the house you’re welcomed by a wide entrance hall leading to all principal reception areas, with the dual aspect principal reception room to one end, a dining room and guest WC in the centre of the house and the kitchen breakfast room with separate utility room, leading onto the sitting room with French doors on to the garden. To the first floor the floor plan is almost mirrored with a sizable triple aspect principal bedroom to one end, the second and third bedrooms in the centre of the house, with the fourth bedroom and family bathroom at the opposing end.

Outside
Externally the house benefits from a mature wrap around garden, with varying aspects to follow the sun, sheltered by a tall hedge line surrounding the garden and a beautiful wisteria growing across the southern elevation. To the front is a sizeable garden and forecourt providing off street parking for several cars and a double garage offering covered parking and storage.

Situation
