Within this versatile living space is a casual living area; the focal point of which is a feature raised glazed fronted log effect gas flame fire with television recess above.

A wine store is incorporated into this area and a door opens to a spacious utility room. This central space seamlessly connects to the living spaces, each designed for both comfort and sophistication.

These include a formal drawing room with views to the rear through oversized I.D Systems patio doors and a feature stone fireplace that incorporates a gas fire.

The property benefits from a Control4 luxury home automation system via a digital wall mounted tablet, AV lighting, in addition to underfloor heating on both the ground and first floor levels.

The home office will be ideally suited to those that work from home and the well proportioned reception room to the front of the house could provide a multitude of purposes, such as an additional sitting room, media room, formal dining room or games room.

The impressive first floor galleried landing has a glass balustrade and curved wood handrail and overlooks the reception hallway below.

This is open plan to the library/minstrels gallery overlooking the rear with French doors to a Juliette balcony.

The house hosts six individually designed bedroom suites with generous dressing areas and spacious en suites.

Across the rear, a terrace spans the width of this wonderful home leading seamlessly to the ION heated swimming pool area.

This is open to the expansive, well tended lawn area which is surrounded by an abundance of evergreens, shrubs and mature surround that serves to provide maximum privacy and seclusion from neighbouring properties.

As previously mentioned, the property is situated on a large southerly plot that measures 0.47 acre (STLS).

A brick built, cedar clad garden room with bi-folding doors that open to the garden has an adjacent cloakroom and this would make an ideal home gymnasium or home office.
