The Accommodation
The interior is both substantial and inviting, offering an abundance of well-proportioned accommodation ideally suited to both family life and entertaining. At its heart lies an atmospheric entrance hall, rich in tone and character, setting the scene for the accommodation beyond. The kitchen is quintessentially country in style, centred around a British racing green Aga and complemented by generous cabinetry and space for informal dining, with adjoining utility room.
A particularly charming feature of the house is ‘The Cottage’—the oldest part of the property—offering a more intimate and relaxed living environment, with exposed timbers, lower ceilings, a cosy snug with woodburner and an informal dining space, all opening to a delightful courtyard garden. This area lends itself perfectly to multi-generational living or independent accommodation.
The principal reception rooms are both elegant and impressive. A formal dining room, reflective of its Georgian heritage, enjoys high ceilings, large sash windows and period detailing, while the drawing room provides a superb entertaining space with its symmetry, fireplace and direct access onto the terrace, enjoying far-reaching views across the gardens and valley beyond. A beautifully refurbished garden room captures the changing seasons, and a separate study and extensive cellar further enhance the versatility of the ground floor.
To the first floor, the house offers eight bedrooms, each individual in character and outlook, many with original features including fireplaces and built-in storage. The principal bedroom enjoys particularly fine views across the grounds, while two vaulted bedrooms above The Cottage add further charm. The accommodation is served by a combination of bathrooms and shower rooms, thoughtfully arranged across the floor.
Outside
The grounds at The Grange are nothing short of exceptional. Positioned atop a gentle rise, the house commands far-reaching views across its own land, which sweeps down towards the River Pant. Immediately surrounding the house are beautifully structured formal gardens, defined by mature yew hedging that creates a series of ‘garden rooms’, interspersed with vibrant planting, mature trees and hidden spaces. A secluded kitchen garden with potting shed adds to the charm.
Beyond, an avenue of flowering crab apple trees leads to an extensive range of traditional outbuildings including barns, stables and stores, offering significant potential. The wider grounds include paddocks, sweeping lawns, a heated swimming pool with pool house, tennis court and a picturesque pond. An established orchard provides an abundance of fruit trees, while an area of woodland offers both practical and recreational appeal, complete with river frontage and fishing rights along the River Pant.
The Grange represents a rare combination of architectural heritage, lifestyle opportunity and natural beauty—an exceptional country home of considerable presence, offering both immediate enjoyment and future potential in equal measure.
