With uninterrupted views across rolling countryside, this striking
contemporary home occupies a sumptuous plot just over 0.5 acres
with generous gardens encompassing the property, providing the
ultimate luxurious country lifestyle.
This is a home of tremendous quality which is apparent from the
moment you step into the stunning reception hall with its double
height ceiling and floating oak staircase which proves to be a real
focal point. The property covers an impressive 4318 sq ft (409 sq
m) of lavish accommodation sprawling over three floors with rooms
palatial in size; you will find it very difficult to rival its
magnitude and specification.
The spectacular open plan kitchendiningfamily room is the fulcrum
of this substantial home and boasts amazing dual-aspect views via
double height windows and sliding doors that open to the garden
areas, creating the seamless blend of outside-inside living.
The kitchen itself features a bespoke range of cabinetry,
complemented by Corian work surfaces, integrated 'Siemens'
appliances and a central island. A very handy and equally
well-equipped utility room is adjacent to the kitchen with further
access to the garden.
Two more superb reception rooms benefit the vast ground floor, a
surround sound cinema room and a dual aspect lounge.
An incredible galleried landing with a glass panelled gantry
overlooking the reception hall presents four double bedrooms, two
with en-suite and dressing room facilities, whilst a large family
bathroom concludes the first floor. The Principal Suite has an
immediate 'WOW' factor, featuring a vaulted ceiling and access to a
balcony which spans the full width of the room providing the
perfect vantage point to enjoy those views across countryside and
amazing sunsets.
An additional oak staircase rises to the second floor which
accommodates two further double bedrooms and a shower room. This
entire floor lends itself perfectly to an older child seeking
independence or those working from home who need their own private
space.
Despite its size, this well designed home is extremely economical
to run thanks to a low carbon air source heat pump, ensuring you
will never have to worry about the running costs usually associated
with homes of this size. Smart technology such as a 'Lutron' smart
lighting system, built in 'Sonos' speakers and remote controlled
electric blinds ensures that you have luxury and comfort at the
click of a button. Additional features include underfloor heating
and air conditioning throughout.
The property overlooks and forms part of a four acre meadow with
25% shared ownership of the grounds. The house is approached via
pillared electric gates which open onto a huge driveway and
enclosed completely by hedging and fencing. A detached double
garage with ample storage and remote controlled door is situated at
the bottom of the plot with a path that leads up to the house.
