Designed with both lifestyle and longevity in mind, the property offers an impressive level of specification throughout, combining luxurious finishes with intelligent modern living — a home that feels as beautiful as it is functional.

The exterior sets the tone for what unfolds inside — a home crafted with precision, presence and attention to detail.

Stepping inside, the ground floor opens into an expansive, broken open-plan living environment where scale and flow take centre stage. Underfloor heating runs seamlessly beneath elegant flooring, creating warmth and comfort throughout the home. The vast lounge, kitchen and dining area has been thoughtfully designed as the true heart of the property — a space equally suited to relaxed family living and sophisticated entertaining. A contemporary fireplace anchors the lounge area, adding texture and atmosphere against the clean architectural lines.

The kitchen is nothing short of outstanding. Beautifully appointed with striking Scorpio Blue quartz worktops, it delivers both visual impact and practical excellence. Integrated appliances include NEFF and CDA units, alongside a full-height integrated fridge and freezer, hidden bin system and dishwasher — all contributing to a sleek, uncluttered aesthetic.

Flowing effortlessly from the main living area is the stunning orangery — a breathtaking architectural feature designed to blur the boundaries between inside and out. Flooded with natural light and enhanced by automatic closing roof windows, this space provides a tranquil retreat overlooking the garden, perfect for year-round enjoyment whether hosting guests or enjoying quieter moments.

Additional ground floor accommodation includes a separate utility room and a dedicated study, ideal for modern remote working or a private reading space — reinforcing the home’s versatility and thoughtful design.

Upstairs, the sense of luxury continues across four beautifully proportioned bedrooms. The principal suite offers a truly impressive retreat, enhanced by a striking apex window that frames elevated views while flooding the room with natural light. The accompanying en-suite is finished to an extraordinary standard, featuring statement tiles that create a dramatic, almost artistic backdrop — a space that feels more boutique hotel than traditional bathroom. Bedrooms are served by a stylish Jack and Jill bathroom alongside further well-appointed facilities, ensuring both practicality and indulgence for family living.

Sustainability and efficiency sit at the core of the property’s design, with an air source heat pump, solar panels and underfloor heating working in harmony to deliver modern energy performance.
