About
St Cloud – A Unique Individually Built Detached Bungalow Set in Approximately 0.4 Acres St Cloud is a truly exceptional four/five-bedroom detached bungalow, individually commissioned and built by its previous owner, whose inspiration—and indeed the funding for its construction—came from a winning racehorse bearing the same name.
This remarkable home offers a rare combination of spacious single-storey living, extensive outdoor amenities, and a fascinating personal history.
Occupying a generous plot of approximately 0.4 acres, the property is approached via a private driveway and enjoys a high degree of privacy within beautifully established grounds.
The versatile accommodation provides four well-proportioned bedrooms, with the flexibility for a fifth bedroom, home office, or hobby room, making it ideal for families, multi-generational living, or those seeking adaptable space.
The extensive gardens have been lovingly cultivated and are a particular feature of the property.
A tranquil wildlife pond attracts an abundance of birds and wildlife, while a productive allotment area offers the opportunity to grow fruit, vegetables, and flowers.
Two charming summer houses provide perfect spaces for relaxation, entertaining, or creative pursuits throughout the year.
Further enhancing the lifestyle appeal of St Cloud, includes a sauna and invigorating plunge pools, creating a private wellness retreat within the grounds.
A substantial double garage provides excellent storage and secure parking, complemented by ample driveway space.
Combining character, individuality, and outstanding outdoor amenities, St Cloud presents a rare opportunity to acquire a one-of-a-kind home with a unique story, set within beautifully landscaped gardens designed to be enjoyed in every season.
