About
The Accommodation A beautifully appointed and remarkably spacious ground floor layout, perfectly optimized for sophisticated modern living and seamless entertaining.
Upon entering, an expansive and light-filled entrance hall with elegant, tiled flooring sets an impressive tone, providing a welcoming axis to the principal reception rooms.
To the front of the property, a generous living room centres around a striking contemporary fireplace, framed by bespoke integrated cabinetry and shelving, while a large bay window floods the space with natural light.
Across the hallway, a versatile second reception room, currently configured as a dynamic family playroom, mirrors the front aspect with its own elegant bay window, offering superb flexibility as a formal dining room or secondary sitting area.
Spanning the full width of the rear of the house is the magnificent heart of the home: A sensational open-plan kitchen and dining area designed to maximize light and garden connectivity through expansive French doors and large picture windows.
The kitchen is impeccably styled with a sleek, minimalist aesthetic, featuring a substantial central island, seamlessly integrated high-end appliances, and a striking bank of deep-toned, grain-textured contemporary cabinetry.
This impressive culinary space transitions effortlessly into a generous dining area, perfectly suited for family gatherings.
Practicality is equally well-considered, with a discrete, well-proportioned utility room, a pantry, and a cloakroom/WC completing this exceptionally balanced and flawlessly executed ground floor arrangement.
The first-floor accommodation is equally impressive, arranged around a central landing that leads to five well-proportioned bedrooms and a beautifully appointed family shower room.
The principal suite serves as a particular highlight, offering a generous sanctuary dressed in sophisticated muted tones, featuring expansive floor-to-ceiling sliding mirrored wardrobes and a large window providing peaceful views over the leafy surroundings.
This master bedroom is served by a modern en-suite bathroom of exceptional quality; it boasts a luxurious freestanding contemporary bathtub set against a striking marble-effect tiled feature wall, a wide double vanity unit and a spacious walk-in glass shower enclosure.
The remaining bedrooms offer superb versatility to accommodate a growing family.
Bedroom two is another spacious double room, while the third and fourth bedrooms are beautifully presented—currently configured as a charming, light-filled nursery and a vibrant child's bedroom, both enjoying bright aspects through windows finished with premium plantation shutters.
The fifth bedroom is perfectly utilized as a quiet home office and study space.
Completing this flawlessly presented upper floor is a stylish family shower room featuring a sleek floating WC and vanity washbasin.
