Property description.
The naturally light-filled entrance hall provides a warm and inviting introduction to the home, setting an immediate sense of understated elegance. Leading from the hall is the principal reception space, where the sitting room is enhanced by an abundance of windows, a charming open fireplace with an attractive surround, and beautifully finished wooden flooring. This impressive and generously proportioned room offers a welcoming ambiance, perfectly suited to both entertaining and relaxed family living.
The exceptional dining kitchen by Symphony Kitchens forms the heart of the home and serves as a striking focal point. Thoughtfully designed, it incorporates a central island and elegant white quartz work surfaces with subtle grey marble veining, complemented by matching upstands, splashbacks, and windowsills. A comprehensive range of integrated appliances includes an induction hob, two ovens, dishwasher, and fridge, while the extensive cabinetry provides an excellent amount of storage. Bathed in natural light, the dual-aspect layout and double doors opening onto the south-west facing garden create a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. A multi-fuel stove adds both warmth and character, further enhancing the inviting atmosphere.
The garden room is a standout feature, offering panoramic views across the beautifully landscaped rear garden. Designed for year-round enjoyment, it features glazed double doors opening onto the patio, a fully enclosed structure with a partially glazed roof, and flooring that seamlessly complements the dining kitchen. A built-in window seat and generous proportions make this a superb space for social gatherings, with the garden flowing effortlessly into the home during the warmer months.
Designed with both practicality and style in mind, the boot room provides an exceptional range of bespoke integrated storage, including base and full-height units, designated coat hanging, seating, and complementary work surfaces. Ideally suited to family and country living, this space also incorporates a full-height integrated freezer and wine cooler. Leading from here are the utility and boiler rooms. The utility room features a Belfast sink, coordinated cabinetry and work surfaces, and plumbing for both a washing machine and dryer. The high-quality integrated units throughout the boot room and utility are by Howdens, ensuring a cohesive and refined finish.
The versatility of the accommodation is further enhanced by the presence of a ground-floor bedroom with an en-suite shower room. This tranquil room enjoys views over the private garden, while the en-suite is fitted with modern white sanitaryware, integrated vanity storage, full tiling, and a heated towel rail.
Additional ground-floor accommodation includes a stylish cloakroom with contemporary fittings and the spacious central hall, where a striking staircase forms an architectural focal point. The generous proportions allow space for furniture, reinforcing the home’s contemporary and elegant character.
The first-floor landing is enhanced by a window offering elevated views across the garden and adjoining woodland. The principal bedroom is a luxurious retreat, featuring an attractive dual aspect, a walk-in dressing room, and a beautifully appointed en-suite bathroom with high-quality fittings, a separate shower cubicle, and a heated towel rail. The remaining three bedrooms are all well-proportioned double rooms, two of which benefit from integrated wardrobes. These bedrooms are served by the family shower room, fitted with tasteful modern white fittings, integrated vanity storage, and full tiling. Two substantial storage cupboards are also located off the landing.
Outside
The south-west facing garden is fully enclosed, offering an exceptional degree of privacy and enjoying views over mature woodland. A raised patio adjacent to the garden room and dining area provides an ideal setting for outdoor dining and relaxation. The garden has been thoughtfully landscaped, featuring mature shrubs, lawn, specimen trees, hedging, raised vegetable beds, and a charming timber summer house, creating interest and colour throughout the seasons.
To the front, there is generous gravelled parking for multiple vehicles, alongside a double garage with an electric up-and-over door. Additional outbuildings include a shed and workshop/store.
