A beautiful detached home, exquisitely finished, whilst seamlessly blending the style of a traditional character home with the performance and functionality of modern luxury living.

Description

This beautiful new home has been designed and built in a traditional Victorian style that comfortably blends the period architecture with the highest quality modern fittings and finishes. The end result is an exquisite family home providing for every aspect of modern family living with the added benefit of an exceptional energy performance. The traditional red brick exterior, arched porch, and bay window are a nod to the period architecture, whilst internally there is balanced and flexible accommodation over four floors of about 2,749 sq ft.

The entrance hall sets an elegant tone with heritage inspired tiled flooring in a striking black and white marble effect stone. The main reception room is capacious, framed by the high ceiling and ornate architraves, while porcelain wood-effect floor tiles underfoot deliver durability, paired with individual room-controlled underfloor heating throughout. There is also a guest W.C. and cloakroom on this level.

The very heart of this home is the open plan kitchen and living room which has been designed as a statement space, with classic shaker-style cabinetry, quartz worktops and a central island with breakfast bar. There are premium Fisher & Paykel appliances in sleek stainless steel along with the Rangemaster cooker. Triple glazed painted hardwood French doors open onto the south west facing garden.

The lower ground floor offers a substantial multifunctional space, fully wired and zoned for use as a home cinema, gym, playroom, or even an entertainment space with direct access to and from the garden, a truly blank canvas. There is also a useful utility room and storeroom.

The upper floors have been carefully designed to provide balanced bedroom space with careful consideration in each room for quality built in wardrobe space. On the first floor there are four bedrooms, the principal room has a luxurious en suite shower room, beautifully finished with exquisite attention to detail, as is the family bathroom featuring Aqualisa smart digital showers, motion-sensor lighting, heated towel rails, and a seamless blend of traditional fittings with modern functionality.
Occupying the entire top floor is a stunning bedroom suite flooded with light from multiple windows along with a beautifully finished en suite bathroom.

Outside, the south west facing rear garden has been beautifully landscaped with a large terrace for entertaining. Wrought iron railings and spiral staircase lead down to the basement room and there are tiered planted flowerbeds along with steps to a level lawn and a charming folly. The garden walls have been constructed from repurposed bricks from the original cottage, testimony to the steps taken to preserve the character and pleached trees add privacy whilst softening the boundary line.

There is a private gated entrance and driveway that leads to the front parking and car port, complete with electric charging point. The position of this home, being set back from the road itself and accessed along the private gated driveway provides a good level of privacy.
