Uenta House, Church Hill, Hernhill

A substantial, highly modernised detached farmhouse nestled in the heart of Hernhill village, Uenta House occupies almost 4 acres of beautiful grounds and paddocks, offering an array of equestrian facilities. Originally built in the 1980s, the property has been significantly extended and thoughtfully redesigned by the current owners, who have transformed it into an elegantly presented 4,000 sq. ft. family home.

The finish is exquisite, showcasing fine craftsmanship and a high specification throughout. The kitchen is a standout feature, creatively designed with bi-fold doors that frame the gardens and far-reaching views beyond, centred around a large quartz-topped island. The façade features light brick walls paired with a dark slate roof, giving the home a modern rustic charm, while symmetrical windows, dormers, and a sheltered entrance create a welcoming, well-balanced appearance. A gated sweeping driveway further enhances the sense of grandeur.

The tiled entrance hall sits at the heart of the home and leads to a spacious cloakroom, coat closet, and a well-equipped laundry/utility room. To the left lies a triple-aspect sitting room featuring oak flooring and a wood-burning stove set within the chimney breast. This generous space is further complemented by a cosy snug, ideal for reading or study.

To the right of the entrance hall is an elegantly appointed kitchendining room with bi-fold doors opening onto the sun terrace. The thoughtfully designed kitchen features bespoke cabinetry finished in a palette of complementary blues, paired with high-quality quartz worktops. A range of integrated appliances includes a double oven, induction hob with downdraft extractor, dishwasher, and Quooker boiling water tap alongside a Belfast sink.

A few steps descend to a games room, perfect for entertaining, complete with a built-in bar and ample space for table tennis and pool.

On the first floor, a large galleried landing leads to five bedrooms and four bathrooms, three of which are en-suites. The main bedroom extends over 21 feet and includes a walk-in wardrobe, dressing room, and private en-suite.
