Purpose-built to a high specification with no corners cut, it delivers generous proportions and a level of finish rarely found in modern homes.
Alongside its spacious layout, the property boasts an impressive range of luxury amenities, including a heated outdoor swimming pool, a private gymnasium, and a superb bar/games room situated within a detached outbuilding, creating the perfect setting for entertaining, relaxing and family life.
Inside, the house features a bright and welcoming interior, centred around expansive living spaces.

Spanning the full width of the rear of the property, this impressive room opens onto the patio via bi-fold doors, creating the perfect setting for family gatherings and indoor/outdoor living.
To the front of the house sits a substantial separate living room. A study, utility room, ground-floor W/C and extensive storage complete the ground floor.
Across the upper levels, five double bedrooms are arranged over two floors, five bathrooms (including three en-suites), dressing areas, and a beautifully finished family bathroom, all providing excellent privacy and comfort.
