Cantley

Standing proud in an elevated and generous plot, this architecturally designed home boasts not only striking design but also a superb functionality with immaculately presented and highly versatile accommodation refined to seamlessly accompany the ever changing demands of a busy and fulfilling family life. The perfect balance of open plan and traditional receptions sit alongside highly practical areas such as the large utility/boot room or the detached garage with a studio above, all coming together to form a home to fulfil the needs for all generations.

Set behind attractive gates, the large driveway leads to the front door, behind which one is immediately greeted by the drama of this superbly designed home courtesy of the double height entrance hall and galleried landing flooding the heart of the property with natural light. To the rear, the impressive kitchen/dining room is a sociable open plan space serving at the hub of family life whilst the entire room is adorned with pleasant garden views via two sets of bifold doors leading to the paved terrace. The separate sitting room brings excellent balance to the open plan reception and makes for a wonderful area to enjoy the far reaching countryside views and settle in for a good movie as a family.

Elsewhere, the large utility/boot room delivers excellent practicality whilst a flexible study/bedroom option provides yet more versatility to the accommodation.

The first floor is home to three further bedrooms, including the opulent principal suite. Amongst the most striking of any space in the house, this extraordinary bedroom enjoys the volume of the fully vaulted ceiling and an entirely glazed gable leading to the private balcony. A dressing area and well appointed en-suite ensure every box is ticked for a luxurious principal bedroom. A further en-suite guest bedroom is complemented by the third large double, well served by the central family bathroom.

The generous plot in which this home sits extends to approximately 0.6 Acres (STS) and provides ample space for many a feature amongst the lovingly landscaped grounds. Well kept lawns are interspersed with mature trees and the sprawling sun terrace is ideally positioned to make the very best of the all day sunshine. Retaining sleeper walls make for staggered raised beds and bring wonderful shape and texture to the surroundings. A noteworthy addition to the plot is the large detached garage with the studio above and clear annexe potential – yet another space in which this home can cater to any number of lifestyle requirements.
