Interior
A generous private driveway provides substantial off-road parking and convenient access for production vehicles, crew and equipment. The entrance begins with an enclosed porch and distinctive internal door featuring an arched stained-glass panel, opening into a spacious central hallway with a tall feature staircase window.
Immediately off the hallway is a particularly photogenic office / study / sitting room, featuring an original open fireplace, ornate parquet flooring, bay window, stained glass and abundant natural light. The room has a warm, traditional character and can readily suggest a study, writer's room, library, consulting room or period-influenced sitting room.
A separate snug / television room provides a contrasting, intimate domestic setting, with front-facing bay window, stained-glass detailing, living-flame gas fire and original parquet flooring beneath the current carpet.
Sliding doors lead from here into the property's most distinctive interior: an extensive open-plan dining and sunroom, divided naturally into two complementary shooting spaces.
The first is a generous dining area beneath a large roof lantern, while the second provides comfortable seating gathered around a substantial wood-burning stove. A second roof lantern, extensive glazing, garden views and doors on opposing sides provide excellent natural light and numerous potential camera angles. he adjacent artisan-style kitchen has a distinctly different visual identity, with warm wooden flooring, colourful cabinetry, Belfast sink, extensive work surfaces and a large Rangemaster cooker. A sliding internal window provides a direct sightline between the kitchen and dining area. The kitchen also has independent access to the side garden. A ground-floor WC and useful ancillary/storage spaces are also available.
Exterior
Characterful, versatile detached property with multiple interior and exterior shooting spaces. The property offers several visually distinct exterior environments rather than one conventional garden.
The established front garden includes mature planting and a striking specimen maple tree, with the house sitting above and well back from the road.
To the rear, a large paved entertaining terrace leads onto lawn surrounded by mature trees and planting, providing an attractive green backdrop and considerable privacy. One side incorporates a whimsical fairy garden, complete with miniature stone fairy furniture nestled amongst lush planting, providing an unusual ready-made setting for children's, fantasy or lifestyle photography.
