GROUND FLOOR
Step through the front door into a breathtaking central hallway, where a grand staircase and runner carpet instantly set the tone. Engineered oak herringbone flooring flows throughout, tying the ground floor together in warmth and sophistication. To the left, a refined home office with dual aspect windows, classic ceiling detailing and a central rose offers a focused yet elegant workspace. Opposite, a cosy lounge invites relaxation, flooded with natural light—perfect for quieter moments away from the social hub of the home. The downstairs WC is a study in luxury, with a solid marble wall-hung sink, statement porcelain tiling and sleek designer touches. At the heart of the home is the stunning open-plan living kitchen—a space made for entertaining and family life alike. Black-framed double doors and side glazing create a seamless connection to the garden, while a dramatic sky lantern floods the space with natural light. The kitchen itself is pure theatre: bespoke German Kuhlmann cabinetry, a Calacatta Dorado quartz island with waterfall edge, and a full suite of premium Siemens appliances—including self-venting induction hob and full-height wine cooler. A walk-in pantry with fitted cabinetry keeps everything beautifully organised, while a stylish utility room provides side access and houses washer, dryer, and a deep composite sink—engineered for real life, without compromising aesthetics.

FIRST FLOOR
Upstairs, a spacious central landing flooded with natural light sets the tone for a floor dedicated to comfort and refinement. Light greige hardwood-style flooring runs throughout, adding warmth and continuity. At the front of the home, Bedroom Three enjoys a peaceful dual-aspect outlook and comes complete with bespoke fitted wardrobes. Its en-suite bathroom is pure luxury, finished in polished “Selene” porcelain with wood-effect flooring, brushed brass fittings, a jacuzzi bath, and underfloor heating for a spa-like feel. Just across the landing, Bedroom Two mirrors this generous scale and also enjoys a front-facing position with dual windows. A stylish open dressing area with fitted wardrobes leads into a sleek en-suite shower room, finished with dark onyx porcelain tiles, a walk-in enclosure, wood-effect flooring, and chrome fixtures—all underpinned by underfloor heating for added comfort. Toward the rear of the property, the principal suite delivers a true wow moment. With serene garden views, elegant ceiling coving and a central rose, the bedroom flows into an expansive 15ft dressing room—fully fitted with custom cabinetry, concealed storage and full-length mirrors. Beyond this, the en-suite bathroom is a showstopper: bold black and gold styling, a marble twin vanity, walk-in wet room with crittall-style screen, brushed gold fixtures, and a concealed cistern WC. Every element is high-end and flawlessly executed. Also off the landing, a generous laundry cupboard offers built-in shelving for linen and practical storage—proof that luxury and everyday convenience go hand in hand.

SECOND FLOOR
A striking mezzanine-style landing crowns the top of the home, with vaulted ceilings and Velux windows flooding the space with natural light. This impressive level is defined by symmetry and style, with two generously sized double bedrooms positioned on either side of the landing—each designed to mirror the other. Both rooms feature soaring ceilings, luxury vinyl flooring, bespoke fitted furniture and Velux windows that frame open rear views. Luxury continues in the en-suite shower rooms, finished to the highest standard with full “Mediterraneo” style Matt porcelain tiling, walk-in wet room enclosures, wall-hung vanity units and concealed cistern toilets. Matte black fixtures and underfloor heating complete the sleek, seamless look. A large platform landing also provides access to a practical walk-in storage room.

OUTSIDE
From the moment you arrive, this home makes a statement. Clean render, stone detailing, and black crittall-style windows combine for serious curb appeal. A block-paved driveway behind electric gates provides ample parking and access around both sides of the house. To the rear, every inch of the garden has been designed for impact and enjoyment. A raised porcelain terrace flows from the main living space, ideal for al-fresco dining and sun-soaked afternoons. Steps lead to a manicured lawn, sleek slatted fencing and a stylish pathway drawing your eye to the garden room.
