UNNAMED HOUSE The name itself would suggest something out of the ordinary; but from the outset, upon entering this remarkable property, it is quite apparent that this property truly is a work of art. The intricate and individual design of the distinctive wrought iron railings reflects both the original heritage of the building as the village school and pays homage to the owners literary passion, even including a name check for the local schoolgirl who won a competition to name the property. A breath-taking start to what is to follow upon entering the property. The current owners have commissioned a number of esteemed local artisan craftspeople to create bespoke original pieces for the property including not only the wrought iron railings, but stained glass windows, stonework, contemporary furniture and fittings and inspiring individual murals that reflect not only the owners creativity and flair, but are also intrinsic in reflecting the property s architecture and origins. The interior conversion has been thoughtfully orchestrated to take advantage of the natural light which streams through the gothic style windows and reflects beautifully on the curved walls, which are successfully combined with contemporary high spec finishes. The striking open glass and timber staircases compliment the original character in the stone windows and door arches. There is natural light and space in abundance thanks to the open-plan layout of the ground-floor and first floor living areas. A modern extension to the side of the Unnamed House is sympathetic in character to the original building, with exposed stonework and arched windows. Externally Unnamed House has a new Lakeland slate roof, conservation skylights and an esteemed local stonemason, who specialises in historic buildings, has worked to restore the external and internal stonework. The degree of thought and attention to detail, which has gone into the interior conversion, has been continued through to the garden areas, which include a delightful patio area with raised beds and large terraced areas leading down to the lower walled garden area. Accommodation: The individuality and character of this exceptional home can be seen as soon as you set foot in the entrance hall, through the handmade oak door. A dramatic original wall mural, arched window and exposed stonework combined with unique pieces of furniture give a glimpse of the thought that has gone into the creation of this remarkable home and set the scene for what is to come. The reception hall with feature curved wall and large arched window entices you through to the main ground floor accommodation including cloakroom, snug/4th bedroom, garden room with French Doors to the patio area, ground floor en-suite bedroom and utility and finally leads through to the dramatic contemporary heart of this stunning conversion. Large arched windows flood the open-plan living/dining/ kitchen area with natural light. A raised dais provides a dining/seating area ideal for entertaining, warmed by a hole in the wall wood burning stove and an extensive kitchen area is fitted with bespoke handmade base and wall units in Macassar Ebony and Oak, interspersed with vintage printers blocks. There is an aubergine coloured AGA, fridge freezer and a central island of oak and granite with integral wine fridge. A glass and wood split staircase leads from the dais up to the mezzanine living area and the remainder of the first floor accommodation. The mezzanine level, with bespoke Smoked Oak fittings, compliments and enhances the exposed timbers and stone arches of the original school building and a commissioned stained glass window creates a striking focal point to this elegant space. Creating an ideal space for quiet reflection, the Snug/fourth bedroom has a striking original mural in the style of Gustav Klimt, generous arched window and oak flooring. The cloakroom is rich in individual character with contemporary fitted display and storage units, an unusual coloured glass sink and a unique ceiling mural. The ground floor bedroom transports you to a woodland glade and has been designed once again to reflect the curves of the original architecture with a full height curved wall creating a unique en-suite shower room with Bisazza mosaic tiles and fixtures and fittings imported from Italy. The utility room with a range of bespoke fitted units provides access to the patio area to the side and the garden beyond. To the first floor, the master bedroom has a range of bespoke handmade fitted wardrobes in Zebrano wood and skylights ensure this room is bathed in natural light. The dramatic en-suite bathroom will not fail to create an impact with a large egg-shaped modern style bath which was imported from Italy with a mosaic style slate splash back, bespoke built in vanity/washing area made of Zebrano wood and an extremely generous wet/shower area, with unusual black glass tiles. A dressing room, with paddle staircase to a loft storage area, is also accessed from the bathroom. A further mezzanine level to the far end of the house, with a second commissioned stained glass window and full length custom fitted wall unit in Smoked Oak, provides space for a study or further bedroom and is again bathed in natural light from the arched mullioned stone windows. An unusual curved glass and oak staircase lead down into the third en-suite bedroom, with an arched window providing a delightful view across the gardens and rooftops of the village beyond.
