Located in an elevated position with outstanding countryside views the splendid country home is formed from the west wing of an extraordinary period mansion.
Designed and constructed in the 1870s by David Brandon, the Bayham Hall Estate occupies a site close to the protected and historic ruins of Bayham Abbey.
This impressive character home has benefitted from extensive refurbishment and investment by the current owners to provide a comfortable family home suitable for modern day living yet retaining all the charm and original character features.
The accommodation extends to over 7,800 square feet with magnificent ceiling heights and grandly proportioned rooms arranged over three floors and allows for a flexible arrangement.
The ground floor comprises of a beautiful double front door with ornate wrought iron detailing opening into the entrance hall and continuing into the splendid reception hall with its cathedral-like stained glass window and stately oak staircase leading up to a galleried landing.
The formal drawing room is a spectacular room with an attractive feature fireplace beautiful and detailed panelling on the walls and ceiling, stripped wood floor and a large bay window enjoying glorious views. Two sets of double doors open into the double aspect sitting room with a splendid open and working fireplace, stripped wood floors and beautiful and detailed panelling on the walls and ceiling.
The striking kitchen/dining room is set within the former library but now feels very much at the heart of this wonderful home offering a bespoke and extensive range of handcrafted cabinetry with grey granite work surfaces and Miele integrated appliances.
On the first floor the principal bedroom suite enjoys outstanding views, extensive fitted wardrobes and a large en suite shower and bathroom. There are seven further doble bedrooms serviced by two bath/shower rooms, one an en-suite.
Agents Note; Bayham Hall has benefited from significant investment by the current owners in the latest technology and energy saving devices to provide the comfort of a contemporary family home whilst ensuring the protection of such a wonderful property. A geo-thermal ground source heat pump and solar panels have been installed, specific permission from conservation officers was obtained to install custom designed secondary glazing and Thermo Protect insulation, whilst fibre optic broadband and Cat6 cabling allow for high-speed connectivity. The concept of the restoration was to preserve and celebrate the many inherent original features and allow them to take centre stage whilst at the same time creating a lifestyle suitable for modern day living.
The property is approached via a mile long drive, which sweeps through the beautiful grounds of the Bayham Estate and on to the courtyard, where Bayham Hall is the west wing of the mansion. The gardens and grounds extend to approximately 5.35 acres and include vast, well-manicured lawns and wonderful terracing from which to take in the exceptional location and views of the ancient Bayham Abbey ruins. The gardens are both relaxed and formal, with some areas protected by covenants to ensure the preservation of the whole property and some, which are perfect for family enjoyment and entertaining.
