This stunning Georgian house, built in 1820, stands in large manicured grounds and features beautifully presented interiors with exquisite period detailing including magnificent hand painted Italian ceilings in the drawing room and dining room.
Stones House is one of the finest residences in the Ryburn Valley which the present owners have sympathetically updated with quality fixtures and fittings whilst retaining the many original features throughout. New windows have been installed, there is a new heating system, and original timber and tiled floors have been restored to their former glory.
The property is typically Georgian in style having generous proportions and symmetry with principal rooms leading from a central hallway. There are four main reception rooms, a large dining kitchen with separate utility and boot room, two studies, six bedrooms, a house bathroom and four en-suites.
To the lower ground floor is a suite of cellars offering scope for development into a games room, gymnasium and cinema room.
