Lakeside Manor combines character features with classic styling and an impressive attention to detail and sits in a private position with wonderful views over the extensive and beautiful grounds.

It is an exceptional country house with well-designed spaces, refined touches and a welcoming ambience.

From the stunning vaulted entrance with stained glass windows which opens to the impressive reception hall, the stunning kitchen/breakfast room and the elegant reception and entertainment areas, this is a property which has been thoughtfully created with luxury, comfort and recreation in mind.

The ground floor provides flexible accommodation, including three/four reception rooms, all with French doors to the terrace.

Set back from the road behind electric gates, the sweeping driveway leads to the garage block and the turning circle positioned to the front of the main house.
