Property Description
Buckshire, a sophisticated reproduction of a proper Cotswald County Estate. The 6 bedroom, 4.5 bath home is sited among lush landscaping, esteemed gardens and walking paths and a vibrant waterfall against stone walls. This property has a unique pedigree because it was frequently visited by Julia Child. The home belonging to her husband's brother was the site of her wedding reception and, it is rumored, that many of her early recipes were first executed in the existing kitchen. One of the more stunning aspects of the interior is the large, open concept Great Room with a centrally located curved staircase that acts as a nucleus. The ornate details…polished flooring, French doors, period fireplaces and custom woodworking, all work, cumulatively, to form a stellar environment. The kitchen is full of light and contains a glass solarium that acts as a Breakfast Room. The bedrooms are located so that the primary suite is private and important. A short walk from the home is the guest cottage. This one bedroom cottage is the perfect location for guests, relatives or a writer’s studio. Deep in the gardens is an architectural folly that appears as ruins, at first, but then emerges as the perfect venue for al fresco dining. This folly, looks out at the pool and a walking bridge that gives one a wondrous view of the waterfall. The remnants of a tennis court has developed into a sunken garden or large outdoor entertainment space. Buckshire is a home with a provenance that captures the imagination of those immersed in a Charlotte Bronte novel and the interior will captivate those who expect the finest. Walking distance to Lumberville. Only 90 minutes to N.Y.C.
