Built at the turn of the 20th Century by the celebrated architect Leonard Stokes as his private family home, Littleshaw is a remarkable example of the Arts and Crafts movement. This Grade II listed residence offers 8,000 sq ft of living space and masterfully blends period grandeur with modern family living.Stepping through the grand entrance to the paneled Reception Hall, you are welcomed into a series of beautiful reception spaces, including two elegant sitting rooms — one opening onto a balcony — a formal dining room, a charming snug, and a glorious sunroom bathed in natural light. The main kitchen is complemented by a secondary kitchen, ideal for entertaining or hosting events, along with a walk-in larder, cloakroom, boot room, and guest WC. Every room to the rear of the property frames uninterrupted, world-class views of the countryside beyond — a constant reminder of Littleshaw’s extraordinary setting. The Sitting Room with second kitchen and series of utility spaces, would make an ideal setting for a potential kitchen/dining/family room, taking full advantage of the stunning views to the South, along with a newly decked raised sun terrace, with steps leading down to the formal grounds.The first-floor features five generously sized bedrooms, four bathrooms, and a further vaulted, domed ceiling sitting room, designed originally as the Music Room for the house, which opens onto an expansive terrace. There is a large en-suite bathroom to this room, making it ideal as a Guest Suite or Principal Bedroom as required. What is currently used as the Principal Bedroom has a range of built in bedroom furniture, with one set of double doors concealing the walk-in shower enclosure with rain shower. The Study, adjacent to this bedroom lends itself to create an en-suite if required. The current Principal Bedroom and another large Double Bedroom currently share the family bathroom. There are two further excellent sized double bedrooms on this floor which share the facilities of a newly refurbished ‘Jack & Jill’ bathroom. The largest and most impressive Bedroom has its own dedicated bathroom. There is also a Study, Laundry Room and additional WC on this floor.Rising to the top floor is home to a sixth bedroom, a large home office with some of the best views in the house, a home gym, and a further bathroom offering flexibility for modern lifestyles.Throughout the home, high ceilings and large sash windows create an exceptional sense of light, space, and connection to the surrounding landscape. The current owners have configured the property as six bedrooms, but the space is easily adaptable to accommodate up to ten bedrooms if desired, offering exceptional flexibility for growing families or multi-generational living.The overall effect is one of space, tranquility and versatility, with the gardens offering something for every occasion—whether it be entertaining on a grand scale, family enjoyment, or peaceful moments immersed in nature. There are two driveways to the approach to the property, ensuring ample off-road parking for any occasion, a large double garage and a large single integral garage.
