Full Details

A beautifully renovated three-bedroom two storey apartment within the magnificent Grade II listed Fallapit House, combining grand proportions and exquisite period features with stylish contemporary interiors, a private terrace and far-reaching views across the estate’s glorious gardens and surrounding countryside.

Approached through the impressive main entrance of Fallapit House, this exceptional two storey apartment immediately conveys the grandeur and character of its historic setting. The elegant entrance lobby features painted timber-panelled walls, with doors opening onto the magnificent communal staircase leading to the apartment’s first-floor entrance.

Completely modernised to an exacting standard, the apartment is beautifully presented throughout, retaining many original architectural details while introducing a refined and contemporary finish. High ceilings, generous proportions and an abundance of natural light create a wonderful sense of space, while the elevated position provides lovely views across the surrounding gardens and countryside.

The stylish kitchen and dining area is fitted with an extensive range of Scavolini wall and floor units, complemented by a comprehensive selection of integrated Neff appliances. Sleek and contemporary, it provides an attractive and highly practical space for both everyday living and entertaining.

The elegant drawing room is a particularly impressive room, with solid oak flooring and dual-aspect windows, including a beautiful bay window with a deep sill. Glazed French doors open directly onto the apartment’s private terrace, allowing the interior and outside space to flow effortlessly together. Colonial-style shutters provide privacy and character, while a generous storage cupboard offers valuable additional space.

On the first floor are two spacious double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, together with a third bedroom that would also make an excellent study or home office. Each room benefits from a window seat, plentiful natural light and delightful elevated views over the estate’s gardens and surrounding countryside.

The principal bedroom has a stylish en suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a beautifully appointed separate bathroom.

The glazed French doors from the drawing room open onto a delightful private terrace, enclosed by a low stone wall and elegant wrought-iron railings. Gates lead directly from the terrace into the beautifully maintained communal gardens, creating a seamless connection with the wider estate.

The apartment can also be accessed directly from its private rear terrace at ground-floor level, providing an especially convenient secondary entrance.

Fallapit House stands within approximately 22 acres of private parkland, woodland and landscaped gardens. The grounds provide a remarkably peaceful setting in which to relax and unwind, with sweeping lawns, mature trees and a picturesque lake with a decked seating area.

Residents also benefit from allocated parking, additional visitor parking, a lockable external store and a communal storage area suitable for boats.

Developed approximately 15 years ago, Fallapit House was carefully restored and converted into just eight elegant apartments. Wherever possible, the historic spaces and original features were retained, preserving the character and dignity of this important Grade II listed building while creating highly individual homes suited to modern life.

The history of the Fallapit Estate can be traced back to the 13th century, when it was established by Robert de Vallepitte. In the mid-15th century, Elizabeth de Vallepitte married Sir Henry Fortescue, Lord Chief Justice of the Common Pleas in Ireland, and the estate remained in the Fortescue family for approximately 400 years.

This is an exceptional home for someone seeking the grandeur, elegance and proportions of a fine country house, without the maintenance responsibilities ordinarily associated with owning one. Newly renovated, generous and filled with natural light, it offers style, quality and wonderful countryside views in an unusually calm and beautiful setting.
