The house sits within approximately 1.5 acres of grounds, opening to wide countryside views that lend a sense of calm permanence to the setting.

Recently transformed through an extensive programme of works, the property now presents a sophisticated blend of contemporary design, generous proportions and rural tranquillity, an ideal retreat for those seeking privacy and space while remaining well connected.

From the moment of arrival, the house establishes its presence with understated confidence. A private driveway sweeps towards the residence, framed by mature planting and open farmland beyond. The approach is purposeful yet discreet, setting the tone for a home that values both elegance and seclusion.

Rooms Shaped For Modern Life

The interior has been reimagined with a focus on light, proportion and comfort. Every room has been carefully considered, resulting in a home that feels cohesive and effortlessly functional. New windows, refined flooring choices and a full redecoration have elevated the atmosphere throughout, while the introduction of a bespoke kitchen and stylish bathrooms brings a level of finish that aligns with contemporary expectations of luxury.

At the core of the home lies the kitchen/breakfast room, a beautifully appointed space designed for both everyday living and relaxed entertaining. Sleek Navy cabinetry, a range of high-end integrated appliances and generous work surfaces create a refined yet practical environment, while bi-fold doors open directly onto the terrace, allowing the room to extend naturally into the gardens. Morning light moves across this space with ease, and the views towards the fields beyond provide a constant reminder of the home’s rural setting.

The formal dining room is the ideal spot for gatherings, its proportions lending themselves to both intimate dinners and larger occasions. It flows into the sitting room, where views over the gardens create a serene focal point. This is a room designed for quiet evenings, with a sense of calm that reflects the wider landscape. A second reception room, equally suited as a snug, study or fourth bedroom, adds flexibility, ensuring the ground floor adapts effortlessly to changing needs.

Practicality is woven into the design through a well-planned boot room, utility room and a ground-floor bathroom. These spaces support the rhythm of daily life, ensuring the home remains as functional as it is beautiful.

Bedroom Suites With Thoughtful Detail

The first-floor is anchored by an impressive principal bedroom suite. The dressing room and walk-in wardrobe provide generous storage, while the en-suite bathroom has been finished with a level of detail that elevates the everyday.

Two further double bedrooms, each with walk-in wardrobes, continue the theme of comfort and proportion. They are served by a beautifully appointed family bathroom, completing an upper floor that feels both luxurious and practical.

Grounds That Frame The Landscape

Outside, Ten Ten’s grounds extend to approximately 1.5 acres (stms), offering a rare sense of openness and privacy. The gardens are laid predominantly to lawn, creating a generous canvas for outdoor living. Mature boundaries soften the edges of the plot, while the farmland beyond provides an ever-changing backdrop that shifts with the seasons, from golden summer fields to the quiet stillness of winter.

The terrace, positioned to capture the best of the views, is perfectly placed for outdoor dining or simply enjoying the evening light. The scale of the grounds allows for a variety of uses, whether gardening, recreation or quiet contemplation. It is a landscape that encourages a slower pace, inviting time spent outdoors.

A detached double garage sits alongside a substantial garden store/workshop, offering excellent potential for hobbies, storage or a future home office. The outbuilding adds a valuable dimension to the property, enhancing its flexibility and long-term appeal.
