An impressive and generously proportioned detached residence, offering over 3,700 sq.ft of contemporary living space, set within a private 0.24-acre plot.
Discreetly set back from the road behind a sweeping gravel driveway, this impressive home offers a sense of privacy and grandeur from the very first approach. The driveway leads to a generous parking area and an integral garage, framed by mature planting and refined landscaping.
The current owners have undertaken an extensive programme of renovation and enhancement, resulting in a property that has been significantly extended, reconfigured, and exquisitely modernised throughout. The ground floor offers exceptional versatility, including the potential for an annexe-style living arrangement—ideal for multi-generational families or guest accommodation.
Upon entering through the charming front porch, you are welcomed into a spacious and elegant entrance hall, complete with a feature staircase and a stylishly appointed guest WC. To the front aspect, a private study and a formal lounge provide sophisticated spaces for work and relaxation. A substantial utility/boot room offers extensive storage, fitted laundry facilities, and direct access to the garage—perfect for practical family living.
To the opposite side of the hallway, a cosy living room/snug with a characterful log-burning stove flows seamlessly into the heart of the home—an expansive open-plan kitchen and dining area. Thoughtfully extended to create an exceptional family living and entertaining space, the rear of the property also features a state-of-the-art cinema room, a versatile study or guest bedroom, and a contemporary shower room.
The kitchen is a true culinary showpiece. Beautifully designed with grey shaker-style cabinetry and solid quartz worktops, it includes a large breakfast bar and a suite of premium integrated appliances: twin Bosch fridge-freezers, a Neff self-cleaning oven and combi microwave oven, induction hob and dishwasher. Expansive bi-fold doors open onto the rear garden, effortlessly blending indoor and outdoor living.
Upstairs, the first floor comprises six generously proportioned bedrooms. Three principal bedrooms benefit from luxurious en-suite facilities, each finished to an impeccable standard. The remaining bedrooms are served by a superbly appointed family bathroom, complete with a rainfall shower over bath, granite vessel sink, and built-in linen cupboard.
Externally, the property boasts a private, secure, and beautifully landscaped south-facing garden. Bathed in sunlight throughout the day, this serene space is ideal for alfresco dining and entertaining, with a large patio area offering the perfect setting for gatherings of family and friends.
