Property Summary

Introduction
Discover an architectural masterpiece in Appleby Magna: this stunning 18th-century cottage offers a perfect blend of historical charm and contemporary luxury. Meticulously remodelled and extended under renowned architect David Grainger's guidance, this 6-bedroom home provides versatile living spaces ideal for modern family life.
Detail
Originally two separate buildings until the 1980s, this exquisite property was unified and then doubled in size in 2007, successfully preserving its traditional character while creating sophisticated modern spaces. The interior has been beautifully styled with high-end finishes, including tiling and sanitary ware by Fired Earth, alongside elegantly decorated living spaces featuring Farrow & Ball and Little Green Paint throughout.
Step into the grand reception hall with its exposed roof trusses and travertine marble flooring. The heart of this exceptional home is undoubtedly the stunning living kitchen, renovated in 2023, featuring a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams salvaged from Tamworth railway station, shaker-style cabinetry, and high-end appliances including a Stoves range with induction hob and three electric ovens.
The cosy sitting room offers a tranquil retreat with its multi-fuel Aga stove and oak-boarded flooring, while sliding barn-style doors connect to the kitchen, creating a perfect entertaining area. Additional reception spaces include a family room, library, home office, and gym.
The luxurious master suite features a bespoke dressing area with 8 linear meters of wardrobe space and an opulent en-suite bathroom with Fired Earth fixtures. Five additional bedrooms, each with its own character, provide ample space for family and guests, with two further well-appointed bathrooms.
A practical laundry room with the original bespoke painted units, granite work surfaces, and a walk-in pantry offers excellent utility space, alongside a charming boot room with black slate flooring and Belfast sink.
