Find Out A Little More .... - Hornbeam Lodge is a distinctive residence, designed by Elevation Design architectural practice and built to an exceptionally high specification. Incorporating the latest technologies, it offers a stylish and versatile setting - perfect for entertaining and hosting large family gatherings. The property has underfloor heating throughout, heated from an air source heat pump along with solar thermal panels for hot water. The bespoke Lutron lighting system is featured in the kitchen and living room, and most rooms are fitted with three layers of ambient lighting plus 5-amp lamp feeds.

A modular, open-plan living space spanning over 1,000 sq ft sits at the heart of the home. A sweeping full-height arc of glass floods the interior with natural light and frames views of the lily pond and landscaped gardens beyond. The kitchen features sleek cabinetry, moulded Corian worktops, a family-sized breakfast bar, a Quooker tap, seamlessly integrated Neff appliances and a generous island unit with a five-ring gas hob. In addition, there is a pantry with sensor lighting and a utility/laundry room with external door. An inset living-flame gas fire provides a focus, while a dramatic section of ceiling rises beyond the balconied landing to a remote-controlled rooflight. Limestone floor tiles run throughout, continuing seamlessly to a raised dining area with a sleek glass balustrade. An Arts & Crafts oak fireplace with copper panels and a cast-iron hearth serves as the focal point of the living space.

Adjacent to the kitchen is the breakfast room which has sliding glazed doors on two sides forming an uninterrupted open corner, blurring the boundary between interior and exterior living.

A separate home office has a walk-in cupboard and fitted cabinetry, while a staircase leads down to the media/entertainment room. This bright and versatile space features top-light windows, Karndean flooring, a useful storeroom, and a glazed external door providing independent access.

The first floor is illuminated from above and thoughtfully designed with family living in mind. It is arranged as five well-appointed bedrooms and three bathrooms all with low-level sensor lighting. The highlight is the principal bedroom suite, featuring bespoke cabinetry within a dedicated dressing area, a luxurious wet room with porthole window Villeroy & Boch fittings and walk-in Hansgrohe shower, and direct access to a private roof terrace. Expansive bifold doors open onto this stunning outdoor space, finished with slate floor tiles and a sweeping glass balustrade that curves to the south and west, framing views across the garden. There is an external tap and ambient exterior lighting.

The family bathroom includes a Travertine tiled floor, vanity unit with hand basin, heated towel rail and Duravit, Villeroy and Hansgrohe fittings

Outside - Hornbeam Lodge is approached through an electric sliding timber gate that opens onto a turning circle and parking area, flanked by four distinguished Hornbeam trees. The secure garage is fully serviced with power and light, with an electric up-and-over door alongside a pedestrian door providing convenient access to the rear.

The mature garden is a private haven, perfectly oriented to the south-west. A lily pond with a tumbling water feature mirrors the curve of the floor-to-ceiling windows and, alongside, a sunny terrace is sheltered by a white-rendered west wall providing an ideal spot for outdoor dining and relaxation.

Beyond, an extensive lawn stretches out, enclosed by lofty mellow brick walls and bordered with mature trees, shrubs, and perennial planting. In the far corner, a charming timber pavilion with a pitched slate roof offers versatility, with two rooms, dual entrances, and windows that frame garden views. A rainwater/grey water harvesting system feeds the outside taps and toilets.
