Property Description
Bradley Hall is delighted to present Vigo House, an impressive and substantial four -bedroom detached home. This Grade II listed Georgian house, believed to date back to 1810 and formerly part of Lord Lambton’s estate, occupies a private site of approximately 0.75 acres. Accessed via a stone-pillared gated entrance with decorative wrought iron gates, the property features a large, part-walled garden, an extensive gravel driveway, and a double garage. The current owners have substantially improved and modernised Vigo House, including double glazed boxed sash windows with weights & cord opening mechanism in addition to being fully rewired. The water heating is powered by an efficient Fischer boiler.
Interior
Vigo House is adorned with sliding sash windows and high ceilings, adding to its historical charm. On the ground floor, a large entrance hallway leads to the formal dining room. The bespoke kitchen offers a range of wall and base units with a contrasting marble countertop, matching upstands, and splashback. Integrated appliances include a wine fridge, dishwasher, fridge/freezer, and stainless steel oven.
The main living room offers breathtaking views over the formal gardens and boasts a feature marble fireplace housing a log burner. Additional ground-floor spaces include an office/snug, utility room, and a convenient WC. The main bathroom is fully tiled and features luxurious gold accents, a bath with an overhead shower, WC, and basin.
Bedrooms
The master suite is a vast space with a fully fitted dressing room and an en-suite bathroom comprising a bath, WC, basin, and fitted cabinetry. The second en-suite is fully tiled and includes a walk-in shower, basin, and WC. The second bedroom benefits from reinstated original wood flooring and a dual-aspect view over the gardens. Bedroom three also features original wood flooring, a fireplace, and a fully tiled en-suite with a walk-in shower. The remaining two bedrooms are generously sized and share similar high-quality finishes.
Exterior
The expertly landscaped and manicured gardens offer formal garden space, a private courtyard seating area, and a paved sun terrace. The property is bordered by mature trees and shrubs, providing a high degree of seclusion and tranquillity.
