Entrance Hall & First Impressions

The home opens into a striking galleried entrance hall, where a vaulted ceiling, modern oak balustrade and glass detailing create an immediate sense of scale and sophistication. French doors draw the eye through towards the gardens and far-reaching views beyond, setting the tone for a home that has been thoughtfully arranged to maximise natural light, outlook and flow. Practical touches, including sensor lighting, a cloakroom and excellent storage, ensure the space is as functional as it is elegant.

Open-Plan Kitchen, Dining & Living Space

At the heart of Morningside is a superb open-plan kitchen, dining and living area, designed for both everyday family life and impressive entertaining. The bespoke kitchen features sleek cabinetry, seamless heatproof Samsung worktops, a central island positioned to enjoy the views, high-gloss soft-close storage, full-height fridge and freezer, Neff appliances including ovens and warming drawer, and a dedicated cold-store pantry with sensor lighting. The dining and living areas flow naturally from the kitchen, enhanced by a bespoke electric feature fireplace and aluminium bi-folding doors opening directly onto the raised terrace, creating a seamless connection between the interior and outdoor entertaining space.

Reception Rooms & Home Working

In addition to the open-plan living space, Morningside offers a beautifully balanced separate lounge, providing a more intimate and cosy retreat. A large picture window frames the rear garden and hillside views, while a bespoke fireplace adds warmth and character. A dedicated home office enjoys the same peaceful outlook, making it an ideal space for professional work, quiet study or flexible family use. Together, these rooms provide the perfect combination of sociable open-plan living and private, restful spaces.

Utility, Integral Double Garage & Everyday Practicality

The property has been designed with modern living in mind. A generous utility room offers plumbing for laundry appliances, excellent cupboard storage, boiler housing, access to the underfloor heating manifold and a large hot water cylinder.

The home also benefits from gas-fired central heating, zoned underfloor heating to the ground floor and separate radiator heating upstairs.

The first floor continues the home’s sense of quality and proportion. The principal suite is a particularly impressive retreat, with an extra-large bedroom, French doors opening to a Juliet balcony, an additional rear window to enhance the panoramic aspect, a spacious dressing room with fitted storage and sensor lighting, and a luxurious en-suite featuring his-and-hers stone basins, a wet-room shower, chrome towel rail and inset shelving.
