Sitting majestically in its grounds overlooking Southwell Minster, Chaworth House has all the timeless allure of a Georgian property, with its distinguished façade and attractive symmetry creating a calming balance to the handsome face of this home.
It’s simple layout and beautiful proportions give this home an unpretentious elegance, but the grandeur of this listed property cannot be ignored. The flagstone path leads through the garden and up to the commanding front door where the embellished fanlight above casts a stunning light into the entrance hall, with reception rooms off to either side.
The interior of this home has all the hallmarks of Georgian architecture and its enduring appeal, with high ceilings and sophisticated sash windows creating a heightened feeling of space and light. To the front there are two reception rooms, a beautiful sitting room with central fireplace and a spacious drawing room with double aspect, an impressive room where guests were received in times gone by.
The blend of classic design and traditional warmth continues through into the inviting dining room with its exposed brick inglenook fireplace with stone hearth; you can just imagine the fabulous fireside dinner parties and revelry over the years. The kitchen at Chaworth is traditionally elegant with bespoke cabinetry, high quality finishes and appliances; it's thoughtful design and practicality making it a lovely family space.
There are five bedrooms and four bathrooms over the upper floors of this home. Each of the beautifully proportioned bedrooms has its own distinct charm and character and every room has a fireplace.
The outside space here is just as special, imagine listening to the bells of Southwell Minster as you breakfast on the stone patio or soaking up the sun in the privacy of the walled rear garden. All of this and you are just a stone's throw from the towns centre and all it has to offer.
