Description
Welcome to Moorview on Moss Bank Way, accessed via Harpers Lane—an extraordinary four-bedroom family home where contemporary elegance meets ultimate comfort. Nestled on an elevated plot with breath-taking views and a secluded woodland-style rear garden, this residence is designed for those who appreciate luxury, space, and seamless indoor-outdoor living.
A Striking First Impression with a Hidden Secret
Standing proudly on its elevated perch and set over three floors, Moorview makes a dramatic statement from the front. A perfect blend of sleek render, natural stonework, and expansive glazing, its striking A-frame design is a showcase of modern architecture. Floor-to-ceiling picture windows flood the interiors with light, framing breathtaking front-facing views.
Yet, the true entrance to Moorview is found in an unexpected place. Tucked away off Harpers Lane, the rear approach is delightfully unassuming. A private driveway provides generous parking, enclosed by a high brick wall that shields the home from view. Through a modest gate, an elegant oak door awaits, framed by delicate trees that nod to the home’s deep-rooted connection to nature.
Step inside from this hidden entryway, and prepare to be captivated. The first-floor entrance hall is a showstopping introduction—glossy tiling underfoot, a striking glazed balustrade, and a dazzling chandelier overhead. Here, Moorview unveils itself, a perfect harmony of architectural brilliance and homely warmth, proving that the most extraordinary homes often have the most unassuming beginnings.
An Open-Plan Haven for Entertaining
Step inside, and the heart of the home reveals itself—a stunning open-plan kitchen, living, and dining space where contemporary style meets effortless functionality. The high-spec kitchen is a chef’s delight, featuring sleek, deep-toned cabinetry, premium appliances, and striking black marble worktops. A pair of built-in ovens sit elegantly on either side of a central grill and warming drawer, ensuring precision cooking for every occasion. The sleek induction hob offers seamless temperature control, while an integrated dishwasher makes clean-up effortless.
The stainless steel sink adds a sleek and durable element to the kitchen, seamlessly blending with the modern aesthetic and offering a practical space for prep work and clean-up.
A dedicated space for an American-style fridge freezer provides ample storage for fresh ingredients, complemented by a built-in wine fridge, perfect for keeping your favourite bottles at the ideal temperature.
A feature bay window bathes the space in natural light, creating a bright and airy dining nook, while an integrated breakfast bar seamlessly links the kitchen to the social areas, making it an entertainer’s dream.
Flowing effortlessly into the living space, acoustic panelling enhances both style and sound, adding warmth and depth to the room. Whether you're preparing meals, hosting guests, or simply unwinding, this thoughtfully designed space offers the perfect balance of comfort and sophistication.
A Large, Spacious Lounge-Diner with Breathtaking Views
Off the kitchen, a large and spacious lounge-diner unfolds in an L-shape, offering the perfect setting for relaxation and entertaining. The room is bathed in natural light thanks to three wide windows that frame spectacular countryside views, stretching towards and beyond Peel Tower and Holcombe Hill in the distance. These stunning vistas create a serene backdrop that adds to the room's inviting atmosphere.
The lounge area is centered around a contemporary log burner, providing both warmth and a focal point for the space. To the left, inset wood storage adds a functional yet stylish touch, while the TV wall is adorned with sleek acoustic walnut panelling, complementing the built-in TV unit designed to match the room’s elegant aesthetic.
The dining area is ideally positioned by the kitchen door, making it perfect for both intimate meals and entertaining. A door from the lounge flows back into the hallway, ensuring easy access and seamless connectivity to the rest of the home.

Nestled at the rear, a woodland-inspired garden with a chicken coop and treehouse creates an enchanting retreat for young adventurers.
To the front, steps lead through tiered landscaping to a lush, artificial lawn, bordered by rich timber fencing and built-in plant beds. This additional space is ideal for sports and games, offering plenty of room for football nets—making it a fantastic area for children to play and explore.
