Description

Nestled within approximately two acres of secluded, woodland grounds, The Hermitage is a breathtaking, fully refurbished country retreat that effortlessly blends architectural elegance with state-of-the-art modern living. A true credit to its current owners, this exquisite residence offers the rare combination of total privacy and natural serenity, while remaining enviably connected to local amenities and major motorway networks.

Upon arrival through the gated entrance, a picturesque private track winding past open fields and mature trees sets a captivating tone. The ground floor opens into a grand entrance hallway, featuring a striking floating staircase that serves as a stunning architectural centerpiece. Designed for both grand entertaining and effortless daily life, the ground floor boasts exceptionally proportioned living spaces, including an elegant formal dining room and a lounge with seamless bi-fold doors that bring the outdoors in. At the heart of the home lies a vast, beautifully appointed dining kitchen fully equipped with premium integrated appliances, complemented by a separate utility room, a guest cloakroom/WC, and a versatile home gym/office space.

The luxury continues to the first floor where three remarkably spacious double bedrooms await. Each bedroom serves as a private sanctuary, complete with its own dedicated dressing room and an opulent, high-spec wet room en-suite bathroom. Designed with future-proof sustainability in mind, the residence is super energy-efficient, benefiting from extensive modern insulation and an integrated solar panel system.

Outside, the property unfolds into expansive, tranquil private sun-drenched gardens—a haven for local wildlife where deer are a frequent, delightful sight. The grounds offer parking for numerous vehicles alongside the added advantage of outline planning permission for a detached garage.

The Hermitage represents a rare opportunity to acquire a pristine, high-calibre estate where luxury, privacy, and convenience meet.
