D1308 - Billingshurst Manor House

Description:

It may look authentically old but this property is full of contemporary surprises. In a particularly innovative move, the owners installed an eco-friendly closed-loop water source Heat Exchange system, whose loops of submerged pipe extract heat energy from the nearby lake and through amplification and compression, supply hot water to the radiators, underfloor heating, sinks, baths and showers as well as the splendid indoor swimming pool.

Designed by Kit Rae Scott as a neo-classic Jacobean style replica mansion house it sits fort like facing the four acre lake and amidst the rolling lawns and woodlands. Completed in 2004 the house has gracious proportions, rooms are large with hallways to welcome and assemble in.

As expected from such an imposing exterior, the interior reflects the eclectic tastes of the owners. A unique confection of classical style mixed with a dash of contemporary whimsy. Remarkably restrained in the choice of colour and decor and well-proportioned in dimensions, the rooms abound with those splashes of tasteful wit and gaiety chosen with such elan.

This location can be booked in conjunction with D1691.
