Outdoor Living

An oasis for entertaining, The Courtyard features a spectacular indoor-outdoor entertaining zone anchored by the purpose-built ‘Zubar’ – a cleverly designed, safari-themed bar perfect for hosting guests all year round. While the name wasn’t chosen by the current owners, the space is a much-loved part of the home and offers the potential to be further incorporated into the main house via extension (subject to planning). A hot tub sits beside the bar and will be included in the sale.

From the raised rose garden, scented with seasonal blooms, to the expansive sun terrace that wraps around the home’s southern aspect, the outdoor spaces are nothing short of idyllic. Whether it’s morning coffee in the sunshine or hosting summer soirées under the stars, this is a home designed to bring people together.

The Interior

Step inside, and the quality continues. A striking entrance hall welcomes you into the home, where original beams and rustic features blend harmoniously with contemporary finishes, creating a space that is as warm as it is impressive.

At the heart of the home lies the bespoke kitchen – a true chef’s delight. Beautifully crafted, it features a substantial breakfast island, premium appliances, and open access to a spacious dining area, making it the perfect hub for everyday living and entertaining alike. The marble worktops, twin ovens, induction hob with remote-controlled extractor, dishwasher, and wine fridge add everyday luxury and function.

Leading on from the kitchen is a cosy yet stylish sitting room, where sliding doors open directly onto an additional sun terrace – ideal for lazy weekend mornings or alfresco brunches overlooking the rolling lawns.

One of the home's most delightful features is the secret cinema room, cleverly concealed behind a custom-built bookcase. This immersive retreat is fully equipped with modern AV tech, ambient lighting, and electric blinds, giving you complete control over your viewing experience.

Adjoining the hallway is a well-appointed study or fifth bedroom with en suite—perfect for guests, remote working, or multigenerational living.
Also on the ground floor are two separate WCs and a practical utility/laundry room accessed via a side corridor housing the LPG boiler, hot water tank, drying cupboards, and additional storage. Underfloor heating features throughout the majority of the ground floor, excluding the utility room and select bathrooms.

First Floor – Rest & Rejuvenation

Upstairs, the primary bedroom suite is nothing short of a sanctuary. Spacious and serene, it features a Juliet balcony with sweeping views over the gardens and paddocks, as well as a sumptuous en suite bathroom finished to the highest standard. A walk-in wardrobe and built-in eaves storage ensure practicality meets indulgence.
Adjacent lies the guest suite – equally impressive – with its own en suite and a charming aspect over the grounds.

A separate staircase leads to an additional wing of the home, offering a further two double bedrooms and a high-quality family bathroom with wet room features. This layout not only provides separation and privacy but also lends itself beautifully to multigenerational living, teenage independence, or luxurious guest accommodation. A generous landing here also offers potential for a reading nook or additional workspace.
