Description
Discreetly positioned within an exclusive and highly sought-after location on the prestigious Four Oaks Estate, this substantial modern residence offers sophisticated family living on an impressive scale. Meticulously designed and beautifully presented, the property blends architectural presence with refined interiors and professionally landscaped gardens — all within a generous 0.99-acre plot.
The property now benefits from an enclosed entrance porch, offering a private and practical transition into the home. From here, a spacious hallway leads into a dramatic central reception hall, where a sweeping two-storey curved staircase and a statement crystal chandelier establish a sense of grandeur from the outset.
The ground floor has been thoughtfully configured for both everyday living and entertaining. The drawing room, enhanced by a feature fireplace and full-height sliding doors to the rear terrace, offers a stylish yet relaxed space for family and guests. Double doors open to the entertainment room, complete with a bespoke drinks bar — a perfect setting for social occasions.
The heart of the home is the exceptional kitchen and breakfast room, designed with both practicality and luxury in mind. It features bespoke cabinetry, twin ovens, an American-style fridge freezer, a central island with breakfast bar, and a Quooker tap. High-gloss surfaces, ambient lighting, and ceiling speakers further elevate the space. From the kitchen, access flows into the formal dining room, where dual-aspect sliding doors open to the terrace. A large utility room and two separate ground-floor WCs (including a stylish guest cloakroom) offer added convenience.
A further highlight is the generous annexe-style wing, accessible via a private entrance from the driveway. This flexible area is currently arranged as a study/sitting room and a gymnasium with excellent natural light. It leads through to a separate music room with direct garden access — a versatile space for relaxation, creativity, or continued wellness pursuits.
Upstairs, the accommodation is equally impressive, comprising five beautifully appointed bedrooms, all with en suite facilities. The principal suite is a serene retreat, leading into a bespoke walk-in wardrobe — a mirrored dressing room offering both luxury and functionality — and a spacious en suite bathroom with twin basins, a walk-in shower, and private balcony access.
Bedrooms two and three have been recently enhanced with contemporary built-in wardrobes and bespoke dressing tables, ideal for growing children or stylish guest suites. Bedroom four offers additional family accommodation, while the fifth bedroom is perfect for guests or older children, benefitting from natural light and generous proportions.
A number of rooms throughout the property feature ceiling-integrated speakers, allowing for discreet, high-quality audio throughout.
This exceptional home seamlessly combines scale, quality, and design in one of the region’s most prestigious settings.
Gardens and grounds
Externally, the property continues to impress. The expansive rear terrace, accessible from multiple rooms, provides excellent space for outdoor dining and relaxation. A wrap-around deck leads to a feature koi pond and landscaped planting, while the garden itself offers exceptional privacy, mature borders, and ample space for recreation and entertaining.
This exceptional residence is approached via a secure gated entrance opening to an immaculately brick-paved driveway, framed by low-maintenance planting and mature shrubs and trees, with ample parking for multiple vehicles.
To the rear, a large, grey stone-paved patio invites alfresco dining and outdoor entertaining, while the expansive lawned area provides space for family activities. A tranquil woodland-style section at the garden’s edge offers cool respite under the canopy of mature trees.
A striking Koi Pond, encircled by a peaceful Asian-style garden, is the centrepiece of this outdoor haven. Beside it, the modern pergola with log burner, hardwood flooring, and sliding glass doors opens onto a serene wooden deck and seating area— a relaxing space to enjoy the garden regardless of the weather.
The property is further enhanced by a multiple-car garage, a spacious workshop, and a covered pergola ideal for additional storage or garden equipment.
Additional practicality comes in the form of a dedicated tools room discreetly located behind the main garage.
