An immaculate four bedroom detached modern home with double garage

Description

Mulberry House was built to a very high specification by renowned local house builders Charlcombe Homes. The house is beautifully presented and combines the very best of modern infrastructure including the benefit of underfloor heating via air-source heat pumps and good insulation making it very economical to run.

The property has been designed with modern family lifestyles in mind. Entered on the middle floor, the property has an open-plan layout of kitchen-dining-living room, with wide-opening doors onto a covered terrace with external heaters. This provides a practical outdoor seating area, taking in the most of the breath-taking views over the city and beyond.

The kitchen has been thoughtfully designed with fully integrated Siemens appliances, including double ovens, a dishwasher, two full-sized fridge/freezers, and an induction hob. Finished with timeless white units and Silestone quartz work surfaces, there is generous food preparation space and cupboard storage. The bespoke kitchen design features an elegant walnut breakfast bar with room for several chairs. The floors on both the ground floor and garden level are in engineered oak, providing an abundance of natural reflected light from the large picture windows and patio doors to the outdoor terrace.

There are three double bedrooms and three bathrooms on the first floor. The principal bedroom has a stunning, recently upgraded en-suite shower room with double hand basins and a spacious walk-in shower. Underfloor heated with attractive stone tiles, it has been designed in the style of a five star hotel, a theme that is continued through to the dressing room and family bathroom. The dressing room is entered via a pair of discrete 'pocket doors' with wall-to-wall built-in wardrobe storage and a centre piece feature glass-topped set of drawers.

On the lower floor, the spacious sitting room has an inset cassette wood burner with a slate hearth and beautiful Bath stone surround. This room provides an independent living space. There is a further double bedroom with an ensuite shower room and study on this floor, which could be a self-contained suite should one so wish. The utility room could be easily modified into a kitchenette, creating a completely self-contained floor.
Externally

To the front, the property is entered via a pair of electric gates, and it is fully fenced. There is generous parking for 3-4 cars and a double garage with an attractive 'Sedum' roof. The gardens have been professionally landscaped with raised beds and several seating areas. There is an elegant spiral staircase, leading from the garden to the middle floor up to the covered terrace.
