Stone Holt is a handsome stone-built, Grade II listed, period property dating from the late seventeenth century with twentieth-century additions. There are two main staircases, one is an attractive two storey semi-circular spiral staircase projection to the west elevation with stone stairwell windows, in keeping with the age of the property, the other being of traditional design.

The property has beautifully restored period features, including exposed timberwork, ceiling beams, timber spiral staircases, two stone inglenook fireplaces now with wood burners, oak doors, timber floors, leaded windows, window seats and flagstones. Windows and dormers have been replaced. Bathrooms and shower rooms have stylish contemporary sanitaryware.

The reception rooms include the reception hall, drawing room with its inglenook, exposed stonework and timbers and access to the spiral staircase and dining room on the lower ground floor with its inglenook, underfloor heating and door to the courtyard garden. The snug has a brick fireplace and woodburner, with built-in shelving to either side and double doors to the conservatory. The conservatory was added in 2009 with underfloor heating. The kitchen has an electric Aga and bespoke fitted kitchen with granite tops and integrated appliances.

The main bedroom has a spiral to a spacious en suite shower room above. There are three further spacious bedrooms, one with fitted furniture, study/bedroom five and family bathroom, with a further limestone tiled shower room below.

Annexe

The former double garage has been developed to create a separate annexe/office with its own kitchen with flagstone floors and shower room, and with a storage area to the first floor. The garage doors have been retained. Attached is a boot room with a double sink.

The mature, well-stocked gardens of around 0.78 acre are a particular attraction of the property. Approached through wrought iron electric gates to a gravelled drive and ample parking. There is a triple oak-frame garage and two bays being open-fronted.

The principal garden lies to the west side of the house, beyond the conservatory, and is lawned with lovely trees, including variegated holly and oak trees, herbaceous beds and shrubs. To the east side of the house is a more formal enclosed courtyard garden screened for privacy behind a high stone wall accessed from both the ground floor and lower ground floors, with a gravel path around a circular lily pond, silver birch, roses, shrubs, paving and flower beds behind low stone retaining walls with wisteria adorning the house and rose arch.
