Into the bright hallway which reveals the first tantalising glimpse of what’s to come and what lies beyond. If you are ready for a tranquil escape from the real world, let this unobstructed view of this exquisite garden inspire you.

The centrepiece of this exceptional detached home is the extended kitchen/dining/family areas featuring bespoke contemporary glass sliding doors and an all-glass lantern shaped rooflight providing outstanding levels of design, natural light and functionality.

This special home benefits from a flexible layout with an ideal combination of formal and informal areas to also include a separate living room with breathtaking views of the garden, study and downstairs cloakroom.

With our modern-day penchant towards open-plan living, the essential utility room is a vital separate hard-working space, positioned off the kitchen with side access to outside, it’s just perfect for washing off muddy paws and offers plenty of additional storage - a feature throughout this home, including a separate organised walk-in ‘pantry’ style room with shelving.

Upstairs on the first floor and your eye is drawn to the series of scenic viewpoints looking out over the stunning greenspace with trees beyond. Also on the first floor are four appealing double bedrooms, the principal with an en-suite shower room and a beautifully presented family bathroom. In the heart of this vibrant garden, nature unfolds. A sly fox watches from the shadows, a majestic kite soars through the sky, and squirrels scurry playfully among the branches. A cascading water feature brings a soothing soundtrack to a space already teeming with life, water tumbling into a tranquil pond, sending ripples across the surface where dragonflies dance.

Surrounding it, the garden bursts with lush greenery and fragrant flowers that attract buzzing bees and cheerful songbirds. This magical setting creates a peaceful escape -an ideal spot for quiet reflection and a deep connection with nature, where the wild and the wonderful exist in perfect harmony. It’s a place made for long, sun-soaked summer days, where the only priority is to enjoy yourself. Here, little ones can run freely, laughter fills the air around the play area, and families of all generations come together to share countless moments of joy.
