Description:

Glenthorne is a truly magical 77 acre coastal estate in one of the most spectacular locations in England, with dramatic views across the Bristol Channel and direct access to the beach. Description Glenthorne House is classical Georgian in places and Gothic in others with a noticeable Tudoresque influence. The house has undergone extensive renovation work by the current owners, enhancing many of the buildings original features, whilst incorporating many modern conveniences, required of todays country houses. Externally the house has ridged roofs and gables and a profusion of carved stone finials and pergola like turrets. There are groups of Tudoresque ornamental chimneys brought from London and delivered via the sea. The windows are wide bays with stone moulds set in stone mullions. The heavy oak front door with its flat Tudor arch has a matching stone surround. In keeping with the Georgian era, all the rooms benefit from high ceilings and excellent proportions, as well as having an array of period features representing earlier and more modern eras, including handsome chimneypieces, curved oak doors with Gothic arch panels and elegant ceiling mouldings. The main oak staircase ascends in a gentle curve to a circular landing lit from above by an oval sky lantern. The design of the house takes full advantage of the spectacular views with all the principal rooms facing seaward. The house is ideally suited to both formal entertaining and as a family home with the flow of the ground floor leading from the reception hall providing access via the drawing room to the sunlit morning room, the library and the extensive dining room with magnificent bay window. An inner hall passes the gun room and pantry and leads to the kitchen, boot room and utility room. On the first floor, the principal bedroom with adjoining bathroom is situated above the library enjoying the same outstanding. Still available at ListedBuy!
