Durford Edge is an extraordinary country residence of over 9,000 sq. ft, recently extended and fully refurbished to modern building regulations while preserving the architectural integrity of its 1920s Arts & Crafts origins. Designed by the celebrated architect Inigo Triggs and set within 10.4 acres of gardens originally designed by the legendary Gertrude Jekyll, this landmark home occupies a commanding and private position within the exclusive Durford Wood Estate, enjoying breathtaking views and complete seclusion. These features are beautifully captured in Jekyll�s delicate drawings of Durford Edge which are available to view through the Online Archive of California.
The main house offers more than 5,000 sq. ft of refined, character-rich accommodation arranged around a grand oak staircase and expansive reception hall. Period features have been beautifully restored and complemented by carefully considered enhancements throughout. The drawing room is an elegant, west-facing space with an original fireplace and bay window. The formal dining room, with hardwood floors, oak bay window, and stone fireplace, overlooks the lake and surrounding gardens, creating a truly impressive setting for entertaining.
At the rear of the house, a large open-plan kitchen and family room forms the social heart of the home. Designed with both functionality and flow in mind, it features a bespoke Quartz kitchen with central island, an expansive dining area, and a relaxed lounge space with bifold doors opening directly onto the rear terrace and gardens. A study, additional sitting room, and a family room offer further living flexibility on the ground floor, while a sixth bedroom with separate staircase is positioned for staff, guests or live-in help.
Upstairs, the principal suite is a serene, triple-aspect haven with a fireplace and luxurious en-suite featuring a freestanding bath and walk-in shower. The guest suite offers similar levels of comfort, including a jacuzzi bath and separate shower. Three further bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the first floor.
The Hollow
Positioned discreetly across the lawn, the lakeside annexe provides over 2,600 sq. ft of striking, single-storey living space, perfect for extended family, guests, or even as a lifestyle retreat. With four bedrooms (two en-suite), a further bathroom, and an expansive open-plan living area with floor-to-ceiling glazing, the lake house blends style and functionality. A large covered terrace steps down to beautifully landscaped decking at the water�s edge, offering uninterrupted views and effortless outdoor living.
Outside
The gardens are an extension of the home�s architectural beauty. Gertrude Jekyll�s original design still echoes through layered terraces, York stone walls, specimen trees, and seasonal planting, including vivid Azalea displays each spring. The private lake is a natural sanctuary, frequented by ducks and geese, and framed by mature woodland. Expansive terraces around the main house create spaces for both quiet reflection and large-scale entertaining, having comfortably hosted events for over 100 guests.
Accessed via private electric gates and a sweeping tree-lined drive, Durford Edge includes a generous forecourt, a characterful double coach house garage, and a large single garage complete with an inspection pit and studio above.
