Description

On the edge of the village, with views over water meadows and its own gardens and land, Billingford Hall is an impressive Grade II listed Georgian family home. With a handsome 5 bay facade with pedimented door, and large sash windows typical of the period. Further to the principal house there is a charming detached holiday cottage/annexe, a great range of outbuildings and delightful gardens and wider land amounting to about 10.7 acres.   

The house has many of the attributes you would expect of a family home. From classically proportioned rooms over the three floors, an abundance of bedrooms, the kitchen dining area making the perfect family hub, and points at which you can meander out to the gardens and grounds.
As is usual for a house if this scale, there is a formal and informal entrance.

A formal, double height entrance hall sets the tone and makes for a grand arrival. This leads on to a fine study/pool room, a space that evolves with family life. A wonderful sitting room of 8.5m by 5.6m, with open fireplace and bay window, is a comfortable and spacious room with bespoke shelving. A particularly elegant drawing room, with open fireplace and French doors out to a south-west facing terrace, provides a more formal space to enjoy. The dining room is part open plan to the kitchen which is well-fitted, with four oven Everhot, space for a breakfast table, and conveniently next to the utility room. Further functionality is provided by a spacious boot room, essential for rural living, with a south facing loggia providing a lovely seating area.

The seven bedrooms are located on the first and second floor and all are double rooms. The fine principal bedroom is dual aspect, and is particularly spacious with fitted wardrobes, a dressing room and en suite bathroom. There is a guest bedroom with adjoining bathroom and a further three bedrooms and bathroom on the first floor. All bedrooms have views of the gardens and countryside. The converted second floor has a sitting room, large bathroom, bedroom and games room/bedroom seven, the perfect floor for older children or perhaps a guest suite.

The Cottage
To the south-east of the main house is a charming two bedroom cottage, in excellent order, comprising an open plan ground floor kitchen/breakfast/sitting area with two bedrooms and bathroom on the first floor. The cottage enjoys its own enclosed partly walled garden to the south, and provides income potential for use as a holiday let, or as ancillary accommodation to the main house.

Outbuildings
Attached to the south of the house is a wing of traditional outbuildings, of charming mellow red brick under a pantile roof. The buildings comprise stabling, with original Georgian stalls, a workshop of 8m x 5.2m, with fireplace, which has tremendous scope, studio and garage. A further garage is detached, and houses the plant room for the ground source heat pump.

To the south of the walled garden is a substantial outbuilding, providing 5 loose boxes, a tack room and a store room. This faces south with direct access to the paddocks.

Within the grounds of Billingford Hall is a Listed ice house, complete with crinkle crankle entrance.

The gardens and grounds of Billingford Hall are a delight. Enjoying a predominantly south to west facing orientation of formal and informal areas, there is a brilliant privacy and yet openness, with a great feeling of space.

To the west of the house and outbuildings are the formal lawns, separating the house from the paddocks. There is a naturally walled garden of yew hedging and pleached lime with a central tiled pergola, with an avenue of ornamental pear leading away from the terrace to the west. A gate at the end of the avenue leads to an area of woodland, with walkways under planted with spring bulbs leading around the boundary. The western wall of the outbuilding is trained with wisteria, and a shingle pathway leads to the south and the orchard.

A delightful brick and flint walled garden is mainly laid to lawn, with well stocked herbaceous borders, fruit cage, kitchen garden and a restored south facing Victorian green house on a brick plinth. This area would lend itself for anyone looking to install a swimming pool and/or tennis court. There are terraces to the west of the house, accessed from the drawing room and the studio, and to the south of the house, providing a delightful outside dining area.

The paddocks are to the south and south west, and are all post and railed with field shelters and water troughs and with a good grass structure. A substantial dutch barn is at one end of the land, providing useful storage and which could be utilised in many ways.
