Recently renovated and finished to an exacting specification, the property balances grand proportions with carefully considered detailing, resulting in a turnkey home that is both impressive and highly livable.

The entrance vestibule sets the tone for the house, with tall stained-glass windows drawing in natural light and casting a vibrant play of colour across the space.

Beneath, a classic chequerboard tiled floor adds elegance and a sense of tradition, while the high ceilings enhance the impression of craftsmanship and character from the very first step inside.

The principal reception rooms radiate around a central hallway, anchored by a striking staircase that rises gracefully through the heart of the house.

The formal reception rooms lie to the front, with a lounge centered on a working fireplace and intricate plasterwork, offering a refined setting for entertaining.

Next door, the dining room showcases traditional Arts and Crafts-style paneling, bringing warmth and character to the space.

The design transitions seamlessly into the rear of the house, where a striking open plan kitchen, dining and living space forms the heart of the home.

Here, bespoke cabinetry is paired with professional-grade appliances and a substantial marble island, with steel-framed doors opening directly to the rear garden.

Crafted by renowned designer Tom Howley, the kitchen reflects the brand's hallmark quality, with handcrafted cabinetry, carefully chosen materials and refined finishes, paired with professional-grade appliances and a substantial marble island, creating a space that is both functional and beautifully detailed with doors opening directly to the rear garden.

The adjacent utility room is finished to the same exacting standard as the kitchen, designed once again by Tom Howley in the Hartford style.

Comfort is enhanced by underfloor heating, installed throughout the principal ground floor spaces.

A large, air-conditioned gym with mirrored walls and garden access is thoughtfully designed with its own self-contained toilet, ensuring both practicality and convenience without the need to return to the main house and provides a dedicated space for fitness and wellbeing, complementing the lifestyle focus of the main living areas.

Discreetly accessed through a concealed door from the ground floor, the lower level reveals a high-specification wine cellar.

Designed with both storage and presentation in mind, it combines climate control with bespoke shelving and subtle lighting, creating a space as practical for preserving a collection as it is atmospheric for tastings and entertaining.

The first floor is arranged around a generous landing, leading to four individually designed bedroom suites which each reflect their own distinct character through bespoke finishes and carefully considered detailing.

The adjoining en-suites are seamlessly integrated, echoing the design of their respective rooms so that every suite feels both cohesive and complete.

The principal suite provides a private escape with a vaulted bedroom, two fully fitted dressing rooms and a dramatic marble-clad en-suite featuring a freestanding bath, walk-in shower and twin basins.

This room, together with one of the additional suites and the main landing, opens directly onto a substantial stone-paved terrace enclosed by glass balustrading, creating an impressive elevated outdoor space.

The house is equipped with integrated smart technology throughout, allowing lighting, heating, sound and security to be controlled with ease.

Externally The property is approached through electric gates to a sweeping carriage driveway, with an intercom system providing both privacy and security.

The gardens, designed by award-winning landscape architects Alistair W Baldwin & Associates, are truly breathtaking, combining broad lawns with stone terracing to create elegant settings for outdoor dining and entertaining.

Thoughtfully arranged as a sequence of distinct areas, they balance structure with seasonal planting to offer spaces for relaxation, family life and social gatherings.

Within the grounds, an exceptional two-storey summerhouse stands as a contemporary counterpart to the main house.

With full-height glazing and clean architectural lines, it is bathed in natural light and serves equally well as a home office, studio or guest accommodation.

Opening onto landscaped terraces, it creates a seamless link between indoor and outdoor living, perfect for entertaining or enjoying the gardens in privacy.
