This driveway winds its way around the expansive outbuildings, leading to a spacious gravel parking area capable of accommodating multiple vehicles. Additionally, there is a separate entrance from the driveway that leads directly to the courtyard.


Entrance
A block-paved pathway runs alongside the house from the driveway, providing access to the entrance. A distinctive old-style lamp post adds a touch of elegance and illuminates the parking area in the evenings. There are open spaces on either side of the property that lead directly to the beautifully maintained lawns surrounding the house.

Upon entering through the front door, you will find a versatile entrance hallway that also serves as a boot room. This welcoming space features quarry tiled flooring, a Butler-style sink with a wooden drainer and a mixer tap. Two windows offer a view of the front and a further door leads to an internal hallway.

From here, you can access the snug and various other rooms, including the dining room, kitchen breakfast room and cloakroom.

The sitting room, located on the left-hand side of the property, is exceptionally light and spacious. It features triple aspect windows that flood the room with natural light. The wooden flooring continues from the snug and a delightful stove takes centre stage on a granite hearth.

Returning to the inner hallway, a part-stained glass door on the right opens into a stunning country-style kitchen breakfast room.

A beautiful Stanley oven is nestled between the kitchen units, surrounded by brick and tiles with a wooden beam above, creating a charming culinary space.

Gardens and Grounds
The gardens surrounding Glebe Royal are a true delight. French doors from the dining room lead to a patio, perfect for al fresco dining. The manicured lawns have been thoughtfully landscaped and include beds with an array of trees and shrubbery that provide interest throughout the year. A gravel pathway and steps lead down to gently tiered lawns.

Beyond the immediate gardens lies a vast expanse of lawn with a park-like atmosphere, adorned with mature trees and extending to a stunning lake, offering a tranquil setting to enjoy the natural surroundings. Another patio near the lake provides an additional spot for relaxation.

A walled garden located by the house features low box hedging, creating a traditional garden style commonly found in this type of setting. The land bordering the garden has been divided into three paddocks, ideal for equestrian use, complemented by stabling located near the courtyard.

The magnificent grounds include a range of quality brick outbuildings with pitched tiled roofs situated around a courtyard. The first outbuilding comprises two garages, a useful store, a wood store and a granary store on the second level of one of the garages. These outbuildings are perfect for car enthusiasts and those involved in animal husbandry, offering dry storage for feed and bedding.
