Description
The home opens with a delightful front porch, framed by large picture windows and warmed by parquet flooring with underfloor heating, creating a graceful transition into the property’s central entrance hall — a grand space where the character of the home begins to unfold.
From the hallway, light-filled living areas stretch out with purpose. The kitchen/living area is the true heart of the home — a space designed for everyday family life and entertaining alike. With a central island, large windows, and doors that open to the gardens beyond, this open-plan space invites gatherings and connection. A boot room, utility, and cloakroom provide seamless practicality, while a rear porch and secondary entrance enhance everyday access.
Adjoining the kitchen is a staircase that leads directly to the first floor’s games room, allowing this expansive space to function independently — ideal for guests, teenagers, or even as a self-contained annexe.
To the right of the entrance hall lies a generous study, perfect for home working, a stylish lounge with feature fireplace, and a tranquil conservatory — an inviting retreat to enjoy the surrounding gardens in all seasons.
The property also benefits from a substantial integrated garage, which offers scope for conversion into a gym, cinema, or further living accommodation, or to be developed into a private annexe with its own entrance, subject to the necessary permissions.
Descend to the cellar level, and you’ll find two large, usable rooms with excellent head height, ideal for a wine store, gym, studio, or simply as extra storage.
The first floor is both impressive and thoughtfully laid out. The principal suite is elegant and serene, offering garden views, space for seating, and access to a beautifully appointed ensuite. Two further bedrooms enjoy their own ensuite bathrooms, making them ideal for guests or older children, while the remaining two double bedrooms are served by a luxurious family bathroom, fitted with both a walk-in shower and freestanding bath.
The standout feature on this level is the vast games room — a remarkable space with its own staircase access and enormous potential as a cinema, gym, creative studio, or even additional bedroom suite.
