Our Properties
Elmsley, Rydal Mount, Hale Barns
Price : £3.75 million SOLD
First there came RydalMount, on Elmsway. Set in extensive
south-facing gardens at the end of a no-through road, this is certainly
a mansion with the right location. It nestles right in the heart
of Hale Barns, the most prestigious of addresses.
And at over 10,000 square feet, it far exceeds the qualification
limit for the mansion. Indeed, in 12 years of working in property,this
is the biggest newly built home I have seen. It is, quite simply,
vast.
Its size does not, however, overwhelm. The architecture, drawing
heavily on the grand country homes of the Arts and Crafts architects,
softens the scale of the home. The grandeur of the mansion is made
friendly by the vernacular. Here we find a porch “like the
arms we open to receive our friends” as the great architect
Voysey said: the warmth of the style making the mansion approachable.
The quality and detailing of the stonework set in the rendered walls
echo both the Arts and Crafts style and the luxury expected of a
mansion. Beyond the scale, it is the time and care, the materials
and the craftsmanship, that have been put into the construction
of
this home that sing out as special.
Inside and the reinvention of the mansion continues. The grand library
of 19th century homes is replaced by the spectacular multimedia
room: after all, no home could be a modern day mansion without a
home cinema. The details change, but the theme is constant through
the centuries.Mansions should have everything you need for an easy,
leisurely life.
The traditional opulence is maintained – from the handcrafted
staircase to the simply extravagant bathroom in the master suite,
this is a home of no compromise. But the smart wiring is a long
way from tradition – incorporating the latest domotics, the
cutting
edge of technology.
“We use the latest technology to make living in our mansions
easy. From the communication room housing the central computer to
the SieMatic kitchen packed with the latest appliances, it really
is in best traditions of mansions. Using the best materials and
technology to ensure luxury,” saysMartin.
