5 bedroom detached house for sale

Tenure: Freehold

Newhaven House is a contemporary family house which was constructed in 2001 to designs by award winning local architects James Denholm Partnership. The property is bright,
welcoming and immaculately presented with lots of windows maximising the natural light. It also has a number of design features which add a level of quality and individuality to the property which sets it apart from others. The quality of finish internally is immediately apparent in the Mark Wilkinson kitchen, the David Brown lighting system (which is fitted throughout the house) and the quality of the Villeroy & Boch sanitaryware.

A large reception hall opens to a bright and spacious dining kitchen which also has room for comfortable seating. Doors from the kitchen lead to a decked area outside. High quality appliances, including a Britannia dual fuel 6 hob range cooker, are integrated throughout the kitchen which is immaculately presented. The formal dining room also has space for comfortable seating and has an impressive marble fireplace as its focal point. Large windows fill the room with light and maximise the view. Two smaller rooms on the ground floor are currently used as a guest bedroom / study and a television room. They offer enormous flexibility to a buyer depending on
requirements. There is also a utility room, a cloakroom and extensive cupboard storage on the ground floor.

On the first floor, which is reached by a bespoke staircase with solid oak pillars and stair treads, a bright landing leads to a magnificent drawing room with vaulted ceiling, large windows and an exceptional view. A stunning contemporary fire place made of York Stone with a CVO firebowl gives the room additional impact. The master bedroom also benefits from a vaulted ceiling and has an ensuite bathroom. There are two further double bedrooms and a shower room on the first floor. A floored attic is accessed by a ramsay ladder from the landing.

The main reception rooms and kitchen are wired for a remote controlled Bang & Olufsen sound system.
