Description
Upon entry, a welcoming entrance hall provides access to a guest WC and features a striking Crittall-style glazed wall, creating a stylish visual connection through to the kitchen beyond. Understairs access leads into the integral garage, which has been set up as a home gym space, complete with LED wall and ceiling lighting, provisions for a wall TV and access to an external tiled patio area with a useful cold-water shower.

Please note: The garage has been digitally staged with CGI gym equipment for illustrative purposes only, to demonstrate potential layout and use.

The open-aspect ground floor living space ensures a seamless flow throughout. The sitting room enjoys French doors opening onto the garden and is centred around a dual-sided wood-burning stove, which also serves the adjoining living room. Here, a chimney breast with recessed alcove provides a practical and characterful space for log storage. This open-plan layout continues through to the outstanding kitchen/dining room, a true hub of the home. Bi-folding doors open directly onto the garden, while a contemporary sky lantern floods the dining area with natural light. The kitchen is fitted with sleek anthracite cabinetry, a generous breakfast bar and a premium suite of AEG appliances, including an induction hob with downdraft extractor, electric oven, combi oven, warming drawer, dishwasher and integrated fridge freezer. Notably, the breakfast bar features a built in Apple Mac which is connected to a screen, perfect for family schedule planning, television whilst cooking or running a home server.

The first floor hosts three double bedrooms, one of which is currently arranged as an elegant dressing room with illuminated cupboards and drawers. A further bedroom is ideally suited as a nursery or home office. The luxurious family bathroom features a freestanding tub, walk-in shower with sleek glass screen and an illuminated mirror. Provision has been made for a Sonos system or similar on both the landing and in the bathroom.

The property benefits from smart home technology including a Nest thermostat, a Wi-Fi-enabled system that learns your heating preferences and creates an automatic schedule. Heating is delivered via traditional-style anthracite column radiators throughout.

The property is equipped throughout with energy-efficient LED lighting, with smart capabilities, allowing the homeowner to control them remotely through a smartphone app or voice assistant.

Outside
Externally, the highly private wrap-around garden enjoys a favourable South East to North East orientation. A sizeable lawn is complemented by a shed with solar panel and a patio seating area located directly outside the sitting room’s French doors. The lawn adjoins an elevated composite decked entertaining area, beautifully enhanced with festoon lighting, sheltered BBQ space and extensive bench seating – perfect for hosting large gatherings. A further tiled patio provides even more outdoor seating and access to the outdoor shower. Accent LED lighting are set within both the decking and patio area.

To the front, a generous driveway (with Tesla EV charger) offers ample parking for multiple vehicles, as well as providing access to the garage with electric roller door and is securely positioned behind electronic metal bi-folding gates. Both the garage door and the gates can be operated remotely via a home Wi-Fi network.
