This Edwardian house is full of period features and has a “quintessential” English garden. 

Bernisdale, in Hook Heath, spans three storeys and more than 5,000 square feet.

Original period features of the property include wood panelling, cornicing, picture rails and a “plethora” of fireplaces. 

The home is approached via a driveway in landscaped lawns, leading to an arched doorway covered in ivy vines. 

A central entrance hall includes a fireplace and access to a trio of reception rooms, comprising a family room with a focal fireplace, a drawing room with bow windows, a working fire, herringbone floor and French doors, and the dining room, which includes an oak panelled chimney breast and a matching mantelpiece. 

Across the hallway is a large kitchen with a walk-in larder and a utility room, with double doors in a curved archway leading to a conservatory. 

Completing the ground floor is a study with access to the grounds, a plant room and a cloakroom. 

Upstairs, there are seven double bedrooms, four of which are on the first floor and three on the second floor, as well as four bathrooms between the two storeys. 

The grounds offer a “quintessential” English country garden feel, with a south-facing patio framed with vines, hedgerows and roses. 

The expansive lawn wraps around the home and is bordered by high fencing and trees, and includes a double carport garage and an external store room.  

The property is being sold by estate agents Seymours Prestige Homes for a price of £2,250,000. 

The agent commented: “Embodying all the grace and elegance you could hope for in a period property, Bernisdale retains a wealth of its original Edwardian grandeur.

“Ensconced in a hugely private setting and opening onto the tranquility of capacious south-facing gardens, its spacious three storey layout unfolds over a magnificent 5100 square feet.”
