A magnificent Grade II listed country house providing around 6,000 sq. ft. of splendid living space, set in park like grounds of almost 17 acres.

With origins in the early 18th century, this significant property benefited from a substantial west wing being added in the late 19th century.

The property is approached over a long driveway flanked by paddocks on one side and lime trees and a pedestrian avenue on the other, through which it is thought locally that Chaucer once traversed whilst composing Canterbury Tales. The brick facade has a parapet with a tile coping and a moulded brick cornice and there is a variation of beautiful decorative brickwork to the front elevations. The current owners of Glaston Hill House have lived here for around 24 years, and extensive renovation and refurbishment has created a fine elegant interior which reflects the care and attention given to creating a truly beautiful period house Set in grounds of around 17 acres there is light woodland, landscaped gardens, paddocks and excellent equestrian facilities including a superb stable yard and adjacent sand school.

There are ponds within the grounds, a lovely walled garden and a swimming pool. There are two long driveway entrances, one being shared with one other property and the second which leads to the stables and equestrian yard providing ideal access for large horse transporters.
