Description

Easy access to everywhere, whilst being blissfully just far enough away from the madding crowd. Spindlewood brings a feeling of opulence and luxury to the bucolic rolling fields of Woodlands St Mary.

Outside

Approaching the house, the wide drive offers ample parking for a growing family, their friends and visitors alike, with more space through the secure side gates. The low-level walls are topped with decorative railings to keep views unbroken and children and pets where you can see them.

Entrance

Shallow steps lead you to the wide Georgian-inspired porticoed entrance. Inside the light, bright hall, you’re immediately struck by a feeling of calm elegance, thanks to the neutral colour palette and white marbled tiled floor. Double wardrobes keep the space coat and clutter-free.

Cloakroom

Large wall tiles match those on the floor, while the glass basin softens the effect. With a dual flush back-to-cabinet loo, vanity cupboard and heated ladder-style towel rail. 

Home office / snug

This well-proportioned room would make a great home office. Or perhaps a wonderful library or music room to lock yourself away from the rest of the family to enjoy some quiet or not-so-quiet time. With a wide double radiator beneath the window.    

Sitting room

Creating the feeling of a snug, this spacious sitting room has expansive dual-aspect windows ensuring an abundance of natural light, and an open fireplace for a cosy ambience. With a deep, soft carpet underfoot and double radiators beneath the side and rear-facing windows. 

To the left of the feature stone-backed fireplace, you’re taken into the show-stopping hub of this family home, the kitchen/dining room.

Kitchen / Dining room

The real heart of this elegant home is this super stylish, multi-zoned space. Finished to the highest standards, with everything a creative cook could want, this room unifies house and garden.

This is where you’ll come together for family meals, catch-ups with friends around the breakfast bar, or just to enjoy the views across the garden – with the bifold doors thrown open on sultry summer days.

The kitchen includes a five-ring hob beneath an extraction fan and eye-level dual oven with grill. On the island, you have a 1½ steel sink, a built-in dishwasher and a must-have for every modern kitchen, a wine chiller. The plentiful work surfaces are quartz.

The dining area is topped by a huge lantern which, together with the full-width bifold doors and wide side windows, fills the room with light and creates incredible wrap-around and overhead views.

The dining space in generous enough for a get-the-whole-family-together dining table, perfect for Christmases and special occasions. With room left over for soft chairs or a sofa or two. Underfloor heating ensures a pleasant constant temperature. 

Utility room

Off the kitchen, the utility room provides plumbing and space for a washing machine and dryer, with plentiful cupboard storage. A door leads to the back garden.

Garden

An oasis of calm, this is effectively a corner plot, giving you a wrap-around garden with views of paddocks and the seemingly endless countryside beyond, edged with mature trees and hedges.

A deep patio runs around three sides of the house, providing numerous spots for outdoor dining, garden sofas and easy chairs, and plenty more space for a fire pit, barbecue, pizza oven and more 

You could keep this as open low-maintenance lawn, or perhaps enjoy your own version of the good life with a kitchen garden, or make the most of the approved planning permission to further extend and expand. You have choices.

The house is within earshot of the M4, but the gentle hum quickly becomes something you’re unaware of. 

UPSTAIRS

The oak stairs, illuminated by the side window and feature ceiling lights, take you up to the spacious landing and four bedrooms.     

Main bedroom

Looking out to the side and rear garden, and views beyond, the main bedroom offers plenty of space for a king size bed, with chests of drawers and a built-in wardrobe.  

En suite

Beautifully tiled, this boutique-inspired en suite provides a step-free shower enclosure with rainfall and handset showers, back-to-cabinet loo, wall-hung handbasin and vanity unit, fog-free heated and illuminated mirror, and a heated towel rail for warm fluffy towels.

Bedrooms two, three and four

All doubles, these range from 8.7m2 (93.6ft2) to 11.6m2 (124.8ft2) with bedrooms two and four offering built-in wardrobe space.

Family bathroom

Enjoy luxurious bathing in the free-standing slipper bath and rainfall shower enclosure. 

In addition, there’s a wide handbasin atop a wall-hung vanity unit, back-to-cabinet loo and heated towel rail. The stone-effect wall tiles beautifully complement the wood-effect floor tiles. 

Parking

There’s ample driveway parking and additional space through the gates to the side of the house, as well as the dual garage.

Planning permission  

With planning permission is already in place, you’ve the opportunity to further enhance and add value to this already highly desirable home, without the cost, stress and uncertainty of seeking permission yourself. 

Part of the permitted work has already been implemented – the orangery is built and completed – so you can build the family room and the triple carport with room above in your own time if you wish.
