Set within a generous plot approaching 1/3 acre with uninterrupted views over open countryside, this individually designed home, finished to an exceptional specification, was thoughtfully created by the current owners around five years ago.

The first floor is dedicated to restful and versatile accommodation, comprising four spacious double bedrooms. The principal suite is a true sanctuary, complete with a walk-in wardrobe and luxurious en-suite, while the second bedroom also enjoys a stylish en-suite. A well-appointed family bathroom, part-galleried landing, and a convenient laundry chute leading to the utility/boot room ensure the upper floor is as practical as it is elegant.

The ground floor provides generous and flexible living spaces, beginning with a welcoming reception hall that sets the tone for the home. The sitting room, featuring a characterful wood-burning fireplace, creates a cosy yet sophisticated retreat, while a versatile office/bedroom five, with a built-in desk unit, offers the perfect space for remote working or guest accommodation.

At the heart of the home lies a spectacular kitchen/dining/family room, designed for both daily living and entertaining. Boasting a large central granite and oak island with breakfast bar, bi-folding doors opening seamlessly onto the garden, and fully integrated appliances including a dishwasher, fridge/freezer, hot tap, ovens, warming tray, and induction hob, this space embodies contemporary lifestyle living while the seperate utility/boot room enhances convenience and organisation.

Externally, the property continues to impress. A detached double garage and a driveway providing ample parking for multiple vehicles cater to practical needs, while the southwest facing rear garden offers a private haven for relaxation and entertaining. A paved patio, two storage sheds, and a fully equipped outdoor kitchen with granite bar, built-in BBQ, rotisserie, and oak cabinetry create an exceptional space for alfresco dining and summer gatherings with family and friends. The garden’s generous proportions also allow room for children to play or for additional landscaping if desired.

Sustainability and modern efficiency are seamlessly integrated, with an air source heat pump, underfloor heating to the ground floor, and solar panels with 5kW battery storage, combining eco-friendly living with comfort and style.
This remarkable home represents a unique opportunity to enjoy a high specification property in a tranquil village setting, perfectly suited to family life, entertaining, and a relaxed countryside lifestyle.
