About this property
Howlands is an exceptional country residence of considerable charm and distinction, privately nestled at the end of an attractive sweeping driveway within approximately 4.25 acres of surrounding paddocks, mature woodland and beautifully landscaped grounds.
Set within a truly idyllic rural position, the property enjoys breathtaking far-reaching countryside views, offering outstanding peace, ultimate privacy and seclusion away from the main road and other properties, while remaining conveniently close to Blue Point Beach, Lhen Beach and the amenities of Andreas, including the local shop and school.
A standout feature of this remarkable estate is the extensive range of outbuildings and garaging, including an impressive triple garage together with a substantial detached double garage constructed in 2023. This outstanding provision makes Howlands particularly appealing to car collectors, equestrian or outdoor enthusiasts, hobbyists, or those seeking exceptional workshop and storage space.
Beautifully presented throughout, the residence offers elegant yet versatile accommodation of superb proportions, perfectly suited to family living or those desiring an exclusive countryside retreat. A grand and welcoming entrance hallway sets the tone, leading to two charming dual-aspect reception rooms comprising a delightful living room and formal dining room, both rich in character and flooded with natural light.
At the heart of the home lies a magnificent handcrafted Chalon kitchen, thoughtfully designed with a large central island, oil-fired Aga, electric Aga and an informal dining area-creating a stunning space for both everyday living and entertaining. A wonderful garden/sun room extends from the kitchen, perfectly framing views across the grounds, while a separate utility room provides further practicality.
The bedroom accommodation is equally impressive, offering four generous double bedrooms, a study, and a luxurious principal suite occupying its own private wing. This superb retreat features a dressing room and elegant en-suite shower room, while bedroom two also benefits from en-suite facilities. A stylish family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms.
Further enhancing the home’s appeal are two air source heat pumps and an extensive loft space, already primed for conversion into additional accommodation, subject to the necessary consents-offering exciting future potential.
