Britannia Road, Northstowe, CB24

The entrance hall sets an immediate tone of refined elegance, offering a spacious and welcoming introduction to this exceptional home. A beautifully crafted painted wood staircase is complemented by bespoke wall panelling, while a striking herringbone floor flows seamlessly throughout the entire ground floor, enhancing both continuity and sophistication. The impressive double-fronted design provides two elegant principal reception rooms, each benefitting from large bay windows that flood the spaces with natural light. The formal sitting room is centred around a contemporary log-burning stove, framed by a panelled feature wall and flanked by bespoke built-in cabinetry with shelving, creating a luxurious yet inviting atmosphere. The second reception room, currently arranged as a family room, mirrors this high standard with custom-designed storage, offering both style and practicality. The ground floor WC is finished to an equally exacting standard, featuring upgraded fittings and bespoke wall panelling, reflecting the attention to detail found throughout the home.

The kitchen is the undisputed centrepiece of this exquisite property. Thoughtfully enhanced by the current owners, it combines exceptional design with premium finishes. A comprehensive range of sleek wall and base units is paired with quartz work surfaces, coordinating up-stands and tiled splash back. Integrated appliances are seamlessly incorporated, while full-width bi-folding doors open effortlessly onto the professionally landscaped rear garden, creating a perfect flow for both everyday living and entertaining. A separate utility room and a stylish home office further enhance the functionality of the ground floor.

The first floor is accessed via a galleried landing, leading to five generously proportioned bedrooms, luxurious en-suite shower rooms to bedrooms one and two and a beautifully appointed family bathroom. The fifth bedroom benefits from a bespoke range of fitted furniture incorporating hanging space and shelving, ideal for use as a dressing room, nursery or additional study.

Externally, the property continues to impress with a garage and driveway, plus two additional parking spaces included in a bay to the front of the house.

The professionally landscaped garden has been designed with entertaining in mind, featuring a manicured lawn, porcelain-paved patio and an elegant timber pergola. A dedicated outdoor seating and BBQ area is framed by raised, well-stocked borders and enclosed by fencing to the boundaries, offering both privacy and a tranquil outdoor retreat.
