About this listing

An elegant detached period family home, with generous gardens set on a plot of 0.44 of an acre, in a sought after private estate. Occupying one of the finest plots within the prestigious Hawksdown Estate, Langton House is an elegant detached family residence constructed in 1928 by the renowned local Denne family of builders. Beautifully proportioned and arranged over three floors, the house combines the enduring character of its period origins with thoughtfully executed contemporary enhancements, creating a home of exceptional quality and comfort. The current owners have undertaken an extensive programme of improvements, carefully preserving the property's architectural integrity whilst introducing a more refined and modern standard of living. Original sash windows have been comprehensively restored, with sympathetic replacements installed where appropriate. Contemporary bath and shower rooms have been remodelled to a high specification, and the carriage driveway and grounds have been redesigned and landscaped to enhance both the setting and approach to the house. A wealth of original features remain throughout, including oak parquet flooring, original panelled doors with brass furniture, picture rails, decorative cornicing and the characteristic Denne staircase rising from the reception hall. These period details sit comfortably alongside a sophisticated decorative scheme and modern finishes, resulting in a home that feels both timeless and highly practical. The accommodation extends to over 3,200 sq. ft. and is centred around a welcoming reception hall, with the benefit of a guest cloakroom. The elegant drawing room enjoys excellent natural light from three sash windows, one featuring the distinctive Denne portcullis design, together with an attractive fireplace providing a focal point. A separate formal dining room offers an ideal space for entertaining. To the rear, a substantial extension has transformed the heart of the home into a superb open-plan kitchen, dining and family room. Featuring a vaulted ceiling with exposed oak trusses and extensive glazing overlooking the gardens, this impressive space combines everyday family living with entertaining on a larger scale. Complementing the kitchen is a well-appointed laundry room/utility area, boot room and WC. The first floor provides three generous double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The principal bedroom benefits from a luxurious en-suite bathroom, whilst the remaining bedrooms enjoy attractive views across the grounds.The second floor offers three further versatile rooms which can accommodate guest bedrooms, home offices, hobbies or study space, together with useful eaves storage. GARDENS & GROUNDS Approached via an attractive carriage driveway providing extensive off-road parking, Langton House enjoys a secluded and mature setting, on a plot of 0.44 of an acre.

To the rear, the gardens are predominantly laid to lawn with generous entertaining terraces immediatelyadjoining the house, creating a seamless connection between the interior and exterior living spaces.
