Ground floor The ground floor immediately impresses upon entry, with a striking entrance hallway that sets the tone for the quality and design found throughout the home.

Large format tiled flooring runs underfoot, enhanced by subtle LED strip lighting integrated into the skirting and ceiling recesses which create a warm ambient atmosphere in the evening.

A bespoke glazed feature above the internal doorway allows natural light to filter through the space, creating an open and welcoming first impression.

A standout design feature within the hallway is the bespoke bar area positioned beneath the staircase.

Beautifully crafted cabinetry incorporates wine storage, shelving and feature lighting, finished with warm timber worktops and contrasting cabinetry.

The open staircase above forms a striking architectural feature while allowing light to travel freely through the space.

Leading from the hallway is the family lounge, a comfortable and stylish reception room centred around a bespoke walnut media wall with integrated shelving, concealed storage and subtle mood lighting that creates an elegant focal point.

Soft carpeting adds warmth underfoot, while to the front of the room an additional sitting area measuring approximately 12ft by 5ft provides a versatile reading or relaxation nook and introduces additional natural light.

Undoubtedly the centrepiece of the home is the spectacular open plan living kitchen diner.

Designed with modern family living and entertaining in mind, the space is flooded with natural light from expansive glazing and a dramatic roof lantern above.

The contemporary kitchen is beautifully appointed with sleek cabinetry and striking marble work surfaces, complemented by feature backlit splashbacks that create a bold design statement.

A large central island with breakfast bar seating forms the social heart of the room, offering generous preparation space alongside integrated appliances, soft-close storage and a Quooker boiling water tap for everyday convenience.

The adjoining living and dining areas provide ample space for both informal family gatherings and larger occasions, while full height crittall-style doors to the rear can open traditionally or fold back entirely to create a seamless connection with the outdoor terrace and garden.

Flowing directly from the kitchen is the formal dining room, accessed via elegant crittall-style glazed doors that maintain a visual connection while allowing the space to function independently when required.

This beautifully proportioned room enjoys a dual aspect to the front and side elevations, allowing natural light to fill the space throughout the day.

Rich herringbone flooring adds warmth and character underfoot, while a striking Venetian plaster ceiling with feature lighting provides a refined setting for formal dining and entertaining.

Underfloor heating runs throughout the tiled areas of the ground floor, including the hallway, cloakroom and living kitchen diner, ensuring comfort throughout the seasons while maintaining a clean contemporary aesthetic.

Completing the ground floor accommodation is a stylish cloakroom/WC and a well-appointed utility room fitted with cabinetry matching the kitchen, incorporating an inset sink, space for a stacked washer and dryer, and convenient side access to the front of the property.

First floor A striking staircase rises to an impressive mezzanine landing which overlooks the entrance hallway below, creating a wonderful sense of openness and architectural flow within the home.

Contemporary glass balustrading and stylish black detailing frame the space, while large glazing to the front elevation allows natural light to flood in.

Feature ceiling lighting and a dramatic pendant installation above the stairwell create a striking visual centrepiece that links the design of both floors.

The principal bedroom suite occupies a generous position on this level and enjoys pleasant outlooks to both the front and side elevations, allowing natural light to fill the room throughout the day.

The bedroom offers excellent proportions with ample space for freestanding furniture, creating a calm and comfortable retreat.

The suite is complemented by a luxurious en-suite bathroom finished to a high specification with marble-effect tiling throughout.

The space features a freestanding bath alongside a separate walk-in shower enclosure, creating a spa-like environment.

Contemporary black fittings, a sleek vanity unit and modern sanitaryware complete the sophisticated design.

Two further double bedrooms are located on this floor, both well proportioned and offering flexible accommodation for family members, guests or home working.

These rooms are served by a stylish family bathroom finished in keeping with the property’s high specification, featuring marble-effect wall tiling, a freestanding bath and a separate walk-in shower enclosure with contemporary black fittings.

Overall, the first floor provides a well-balanced arrangement of bedrooms centred around the impressive mezzanine landing, which continues to highlight the home’s striking architectural design while allowing natural light to flow beautifully through the property.

Second floor The second floor continues the impressive accommodation and offers excellent flexibility within the home.

A staircase leads to a further landing which provides access to two substantial bedroom suites, along with a separate dressing area and useful eaves storage.

Both bedrooms are beautifully proportioned and benefit from vaulted ceilings to the front elevation, creating character and architectural interest.

To the rear, the rooms have been thoughtfully extended with a box dormer, significantly increasing the usable floor space while maintaining excellent ceiling height throughout.

This design creates bright, spacious bedrooms that feel far larger than a typical loft conversion.

Each bedroom benefits from its own private en-suite shower room, finished in keeping with the contemporary design seen throughout the home.

Stylish tiling, modern sanitaryware and sleek black fittings create elegant and functional spaces, while skylight windows above allow natural light to flood the rooms.

A separate dressing area on this level provides additional flexibility and practical storage space for clothing and accessories.

Combined with the generous bedrooms and en-suite facilities, this floor offers ideal accommodation for older children, guests or extended family members, continuing the high specification and thoughtful design evident throughout the property.

Outside Externally the property enjoys a commanding presence, set well back from Otley Road behind an electric gated entrance which enhances both privacy and security while creating an impressive sense of arrival.

Beyond the gates, a substantial driveway provides extensive off-street parking for ten vehicles or more, making the property particularly well suited to larger households or those who enjoy entertaining.

The driveway also provides access to a double garage, further enhancing the practicality of the home.

The property sits within generous wraparound gardens extending to the front, side and rear, allowing the home to enjoy sunlight throughout the day.

To the rear is a thoughtfully designed garden space created to maximise both usability and enjoyment.

Immediately outside the house is a generous gravelled terrace area, ideal for outdoor seating, dining and entertaining, while beyond this the garden gently leads down to an expansive lawn.

The rear boundary is framed by a mature line of established laurel hedging, providing excellent privacy and a beautiful natural backdrop to the garden.

The rear garden benefits from an east-facing aspect, allowing morning and daytime sunshine to fill the space, while the wraparound layout ensures the property enjoys sunlight throughout the day.
