Property description

Start your new chapter BEFORE welcoming in NEXT YEAR with this CHAIN-FREE property. The Old Stables is a striking and innovative conversion, seamlessly blending contemporary design with timeless character. Once part of the historic Filby Hall estate, the property carries notable heritage significance and a deep-rooted connection to the area’s past—an evocative link that enhances its unique appeal.Bathed in natural light thanks to thoughtfully integrated ground-floor and ceiling glazing, this home offers a bright, welcoming atmosphere throughout. A prime example of its luminous charm is found in the reception hallway, where daylight cascades from above, creating a dramatic and elegant first impression.The accommodation is both generous and versatile. The ground floor hosts four beautifully appointed bedrooms, two of which benefit from en-suite facilities, alongside a stylish family bathroom. A particular highlight is the family room, a vaulted space that showcases floor-to-ceiling glazing, flooding the room with natural light and creating an inviting setting for relaxation or entertaining. Additional practical spaces include a utility room and a separate cloakroom.A staircase leads to the first floor, revealing a spectacular vaulted sitting room. With exposed roof trusses, polished timber flooring, and picturesque views over the garden, this room combines rustic elegance with modern comfort. The well-fitted kitchen provides ample storage and workspace, while a flexible additional room—currently arranged as a sociable dining area—offers scope for various uses, such as a home office or snug.Externally, the cottage-style walled garden was once a showpiece, thoughtfully landscaped to maximise its potential. Designed with outdoor living in mind, it features a southerly aspect, perfect for alfresco entertaining, with a raised deck, manicured lawn, specimen box balls, hedging trees, and two mature Magnolia trees. A delightful surprise awaits in the form of a secret walled outbuilding, ideal for discreet storage or potential conversion (subject to planning).To the front, there is ample parking, completing this charming and unique offering.FILBY
