Description

Situated within an exclusive gated setting, this exceptional four bedroom detached home has been expertly designed to offer a superb level of finish, space and versatility, ideal for modern family living. The property forms part of a small, private complex, sharing gated access with two beautifully converted barn dwellings, all converted by the current owners.

Set on a generous plot, the house benefits from ample garden space along with an additional parcel of land positioned adjacent to the property, offering further potential subject to the necessary planning consents.

Upon entering, you are welcomed by a bright, airy and substantial entrance hallway which immediately sets the tone for the quality and scale found throughout. Just off the hallway is a highly versatile room, perfectly suited for use as a guest bedroom, home office or snug. A ground floor WC provides added convenience. The main living room is positioned to the side of the property and enjoys a self-contained feel, featuring dual aspect windows and bi-folding doors that open directly onto the well-maintained rear garden. Large vertical radiators act as striking design features, while the built-in media wall with fireplace, integrated sound system and alcoves create a stylish and comfortable focal point.

The true heart of the home is the impressive open plan kitchen and living space to the rear — a standout feature that truly elevates the property. The ultra-modern kitchen is sleek and elegant, centred around a statement island with breakfast bar, complemented by feature lighting overhead. Integrated appliances include multiple ovens and a wine fridge, while a built-in sound system adds to the atmosphere. The herringbone flooring has been expertly fitted and enhances the refined finish of the space. Bi-folding doors span both the rear and side elevations, allowing the entire space to open up completely, seamlessly connecting the interior with the garden. Along with the adjoining lounge, this creates exceptional flow and makes the property ideal for entertaining, particularly during the summer months. This space is second to none. Leading from the kitchen is a generous utility room, finished to the same high standard and featuring an additional island.

To the first floor are three further bedrooms, including two generously sized double rooms. The principal bedroom is a real highlight, benefitting from his and hers walk-in wardrobes and dressing area which leads through to a stylish, private en-suite bathroom. A modern family bathroom completes the accommodation on this level.

Externally, the property offers ample off-road parking along with a well-proportioned garden. The additional land to the side provides further opportunity, with the current owners having previously considered the potential for an additional dwelling, subject to the relevant planning permissions.

This property forms part of an attractive small development of three distinctive homes. The family have decided to sell all three properties, and they are available either individually or as a whole, presenting a rare opportunity for homeowners or investors alike.

For further details on the other homes within the development, please enquire.
