Description

An exceptional modern classic on one of Branksome Park’s finest plots

Set in well over an acre of private, south-facing grounds, this extraordinary family home is tucked away on the exclusive Mornish Road, one of the most sought-after addresses in the area. Coming to market for the first time in nearly 20 years, it’s a rare opportunity to own a property that blends timeless architectural elegance with bright, contemporary living spaces designed for modern family life.

Behind twin sets of electric gates, a sweeping in-and-out driveway hints at the scale of the home within. Step through the front door and you’re welcomed into a generous reception hall, where natural light and space set the tone for what’s to come.

The layout flows beautifully, ideal for both daily living and entertaining. Three open yet distinct reception rooms lead onto a sun-drenched patio, perfectly positioned to catch the light throughout the entire day. The heart of the home is a stunning dual-aspect kitchen with a large island and a view across both front and rear gardens. It opens to a spacious family room, and a second staircase that leads up to a private games room, perfect for teenagers, hobbies, or independent living.

Elsewhere on the ground floor, two separate studies offer excellent work-from-home flexibility, ideal as dual offices or just peaceful retreats.

Upstairs, five large double bedrooms each come with their own luxurious en suite. Both the principal bedroom and bedroom two feature their own dressing rooms and en suites with bath and separate shower, a rare level of comfort and privacy for family or guests.

Outside, the grounds are exceptional. Mature pines, wild rhododendrons and complete privacy wrap the home in nature. From the sun-soaked patio, the garden gently steps down to a formal lawn, then onto a full-size, floodlit tennis court, and finally to a lower lawn currently configured as a children’s football pitch. There’s also a detached double garage with storage to the rear and scope to create further accommodation above (STPP).

A remarkable home where space, light and nature come together.
