Description

Welches is an exceptional Georgian home, nestled on the edge of the popular village of Bentley, set in approximately 7.2 acres of beautifully landscaped gardens and paddocks, offering a rare combination of period grandeur, spacious living, and extensive outdoor amenities including a tennis court and a charming array of outbuildings.

Approached via a sweeping gravel driveway framed by manicured lawns and mature trees with a sea of daffodils below, the property’s handsome façade exudes classic charm with its impressive architecture, sash windows, and climbing wisteria. Solar panels on the roof blend modern sustainability with timeless elegance, enhancing the home’s appeal for contemporary living.

The grand entrance hall complete with log burner sets the welcoming tone and scale of the home, which extends to 6,800 sq ft over two floors.

The stately dual aspect drawing room spans the depth of the property, with an open fireplace and multiple double doors offering scenic views across the grounds. Wooden panelling, archways, and intricate cornicing evoke timeless elegance and refined Georgian craftsmanship. Adjoining the drawing room is a more informal living room and a snug, both with open fireplaces.

On the opposite side of the entrance hall is the elegant dining room with large sash windows filling the room with natural light. Detailed coving and parquet flooring add to the grandeur of the property.

The kitchen/breakfast room provides a central hub and includes an Aga, bespoke cabinetry and an informal dining area. Off the kitchen is a larder and useful utility room with a WC and door to outside.

A staircase outside the kitchen leads to the cellar, complete with a store and separate wine cellar. A study, butler’s pantry and downstairs cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation.

Ascending the main staircase to the wide landing which is flooded with natural light, the first floor comprises the double aspect principal bedroom with bay window and fireplace. There are eight further bedrooms, two shared bathrooms and an additional shower room, all of which can be accessed from the main staircase.

An archway between the principal bedroom and a second bedroom offers versatility and flexibility to create a dressing room area. There is a useful second staircase from outside the kitchen leading to four bedrooms and the sitting room/playroom in the west wing, allowing the first floor to have separate east and west wings if required.
