A well-appointed two bedroom ground floor apartment within a 17th century Listed mansion house, with woodland walks nearby, ten miles from the market towns of Oakham and Stamford.
Description
This elegant two-bedroom apartment occupies a ground floor position within the handsome Stocken Hall mansion house. With 17th century origins, the property retains an abundance of character including high ceilings typical of the era, tall sash windows and decorative coving. These features are beautifully complemented by modern additions such as a tasteful contemporary décor scheme, a handsome kitchen and sleek bath and shower rooms.
The grade II* listed Stocken Hall was renovated in 1999 into eleven separate dwellings. Manor Gates is one of the ground floor apartments, centrally positioned within the mansion house, from which there are fine south facing views, and crucially with its own private entrance, in addition to the access from the mansion’s central stairwell hall.
The accommodation is deceptively spacious affording over 1700 sq ft of space with high ceilings and large windows further enhancing the feeling of light and space. The accommodation is entered via a welcoming Minton tile floored entrance hall, to a useful boot room, with floor to ceiling fitted cupboards and a central dining hallway. The symmetry of the 23ft sitting room impresses and serves as the heart of the home, with access to the Mansion central communal entrance stairwell hall too.
From the dining hall, the fully fitted kitchen has appealing solid wood cabinetry and doors, beneath quartz worksurfaces, with a gas range cooker and space for a dishwasher and washer/dryer.
The spacious principal double bedroom has an almost full-height south facing bay window and built-in wardrobes, and a well-appointed en-suite shower room. Double bedroom two, with elegant window seats beneath its large windows adjoins the property’s principal bathroom.
Outside
Manor Gates is set within mature grounds of about four acres comprising beautifully landscaped gardens with rolling lawns, box hedging and gravel pathways with far-reaching views across the surrounding fields and open countryside. This property’s private entrance is found to the rear of the mansion house, with gravelled parking to the front of the oak front entrance door.
Location
The Hall is located 1.7 miles north of the village of Stretton, with The Jackson Stops Country Inn. The Morkery Woods lie a short distance to the north of the Hall, through which footpaths permit fabulous walks.
The market towns of Oakham and Stamford are both ten miles from the property, each offering a variety of facilities, as well as a number of excellent schools, including the independent Stamford Endowed and Oakham Schools. Rutland Water is eight miles from the property.
The area is well connected by road, with the A1 at Stretton offering fast north-south access, whilst Grantham (with mainline rail services to London Kings Cross from 68 minutes) is 15 miles north and Peterborough (with mainline rail services to London Kings Cross from 50 minutes) is 24 miles south.
