Trentham – A Timeless Period Home of Grace and Charm on 1.3 acres approx. Set on expansive, mature grounds of well over an acre, Trentham is a distinguished period residence that exudes timeless elegance and the tranquil ambiance of a bygone era. Entered through imposing granite pillars and cast-iron electric gates, a sweeping gravel driveway curves around a front turning circle, unveiling Trentham in all its splendour. The property enjoys exceptional privacy, with boundaries defined by an array of established trees, including majestic Monterey Cypress and a rich selection of mature shrubs. Granite steps lead to the front entrance, framed by stained glass doors and sidelights that bathe the hallway in natural light. From the central hall, the principal reception rooms unfold—each with soaring 12-foot ceilings, ornate ceiling roses, detailed coving, picture rails, and matching period marble fireplaces. These rooms are equally grand and inviting, ideal for both entertaining and family life. A few gentle steps lead to the rear return, where a guest WC is located off the back hall. Here, the atmosphere becomes more relaxed and homely, featuring a cosy family room with a log-burning stove and a sun-drenched conservatory overlooking the rear garden. The solid oak kitchen by Seabury Kitchens is thoughtfully designed, with a central island, cappuccino marble countertops with waterfall edges, and French doors opening to the garden—a perfect setting for indoor-outdoor living. Upstairs, the accommodation offers impressive flexibility. The luxurious primary suite spans the depth of the house and includes a dual-aspect bedroom with views over the gardens, a spacious dressing room, and a large ensuite bathroom. Three further double bedrooms and a well-appointed family bathroom are found on the first return. The second return houses a fifth bedroom suite, complete with a private study/annex and ensuite shower room. A further return leads to a substantial attic, cleverly divided into two zones—ideal as a family recreation or games room. Trentham is a superb period family home, offering generous and versatile accommodation on a beautifully landscaped site, all within easy reach of a host of local amenities. OUTSIDE The gardens of Trentham are a sheer delight. Approached by impressive granite pillars and cobble lock entrance to reveal a glimpse of Trentham up ahead. The gravel driveway curves around to a large gravel front turning circle with ample car parking for several cars. There are four garden zones. The front and side gardens softly defined by the gravel driveway and turning circle. Here the gardens are bordered along the perimeter with a profusion of mature trees to include Monterey Cypress and bushes creating a collage of green foliage. There is a wooded area to the left of the vehicle entrance with mature trees and part gravel pedestrian path. To the back is a large garage (approx. 4.8m x 5.5m) and (approx.10.9m x 5.5m) for storage. There are in addition a number of garden sheds with electricity supply. The third garden is like a secret garden tucked away behind stone walls with fine metal gates which reveal a captivating blend of elegance and landscaping mastery.
