MYERS GROVE HOUSE

“As soon as we saw the setting and the stunning gardens at Myers Grove House, we instantly fell in love and knew we wanted to settle here,” say the current owners of this impressive Georgian farmhouse.

Set within grounds of 1/3 of an acre, a Georgian period home in natural mellow stone in outstanding parkland gardens with four bedrooms and four reception rooms. The accommodation reaches over three floors and is arranged in a formal yet flexible manor to suit a wide range of discerning buyers seeking spacious rooms, guest accommodation and home working. Generous parking and garaging situated to the rear where the drive leads to the lower level rooms which have potential for home offices or guest accommodation. The stunning garden room extension blends seamlessly to the formal front elevation and faces south with private views out across the stunning parkland gardens with terraces lawns a large pond and gently sloping grounds which harbour a wide range of colourful specimen shrubs and trees. This delightful secluded garden seems even to hold its own micro-climate and feels a world away from the hustle and bustle.

The new Summer room is beautifully light and airy, providing a place to enjoy the garden whatever the weather!”

Myers Grove house is a splendid property situated prominently in what was an old farm setting and while there are a small cluster of homes here the home has a private outlook over the immaculate gardens. The Georgian symmetrical disposition is retained as the large extension is particularly sympathetic to the original and provides large modern living spaces within which offer up to the moment lifestyle living.

The bi-fold doors open into a full width Garden room with glossy porcelain floors and a contemporary round log burning stove. Light from large windows and roof lights flood this space and cast light further into the remaining reception room. The central two storey galleried hall follows on and has a convenient shower room/w/c. and a comfortable snug adjacent which seems to retain period character with oak floor, beamed ceiling and a regency fireplace centrally positioned in white with ornate cast iron insert and multifuel stove.

Modern trend and lifestyles demand a large family living dining kitchen and this is offered in spades featuring a split-level L shaped room with black slate floor and underfloor heating for practicality and character with beams and a feature fireplace. The space is well lit and enjoys a subtle triple aspect and an entrance to the side. Modern and practically fitted with soft natural wood tones and glossy black granite including a large cooking range and a central island unit.

Seller Insight Since moving in, the owners have made sympathetic improvements to the property. “We have carefully modernised

what was a rather traditional interior to create a more flexible, spacious family home. We wanted to have all facilities and utilities right up to date whilst retaining the character” they say. “We also extended the scope of the property with the addition of a bright, south facing Summer room which unites the stunning gardens with the home.”

“We love this home especially the large open rooms alongside original period proportions,” the owners say, “it’s been perfect for our growing family and entertaining friends, the house really works for us because it’s so flexible! There are so many places around the home it’s hard to say which is our favourite, from cosy soirees by the open fires to really opening up the place for special occasions and garden parties when we open the bi-fold doors onto the decking and delight our guests with barbecues and al fresco dining.”

The garden itself is truly something special. “The previous owners landscaped the garden to create an atmosphere close to that of Monet’s gardens,” say the owners, “with ponds, bridges and beautiful trees. The beauty of the garden really speaks for itself, it’s our own little world and everyone who visits remarks on the incredible ambience.”

This is a place for home and business, Myers Grove House is very well situated for travelling around. Minutes from open moorland and yet very easy access to the city and beyond by road or rail. The owners have run a successful business here from the paddock which is adjacent to the property but just out of sight and has its very own access so it doesn’t intrude. This is a rural location by the river in the Loxley Valley near the open countryside but so practical for a busy lifestyle, the property is situated to enjoy the best of both town and country. “We have everything at our fingertips,” say the owners, “We are just two minutes from such a wide range of facilities and it’s so easy to get around: we can walk to the shops and leisure centre or hop on the Supertram into town for the theatre! When we want to retreat we come back to our own unique world and enjoy the walks and bridleways up through the valley to the reservoirs and up onto the tops in the amazing Peak District*

At first floor the stairs come to a head with a gallery landing leading to three double bedrooms and three bathrooms. These bedrooms are spacious and each have glorious views across parkland gardens and woodland beyond. Bathrooms are luxurious and the master bedroom is exquisite.

The lower level is reached from the impressive central stairway and externally from the rear to offer potential for an independent apartment, guest accommodation or home office. This flexibility is a real bonus in a large home of distinction. The first room is put to use as office space and would lend its use to sitting room or bedroom, the lobby has storage and stairs and the study bedroom features a barrel-vaulted ceiling and is fed with natural ventilation.

We shall miss the house itself, having done so much to make it our own, but most of all we shall miss the exquisite garden, which we have thoroughly enjoyed during our time here.”

The lane passes along the side to the drive leading to the double garages independently alarmed, each with stone arches and key stones where roller doors reveal secured spaces. The courtyard toward the end of the drive is raised yet sheltered behind stone garden walls and has further storage and twin w/c’s. The lower level entrance door leads directly from the drive.

The gardens are beautiful! A decked terrace extends outward, raised above the gardens where a commanding view can be had from its balcony and steps or a gentle slope leads onto the new natural smooth stone terrace and further over lawns deep into the tranquil spaces around a natural nature pond and over the stream via the wooden bridge. There is a vast array of colours across a wide variety of specimen shrubs and trees.

This is a great family property for all ages, as the proximity of the city allows older kids their independence, whilst still getting the space and freedom of country life.”
