Thoughtfully redesigned to create a superb balance of contemporary open-plan living and versatile reception space, this impressive home is finished to a high standard throughout and is perfectly suited to modern family life.

The welcoming reception hall leads to an elegant reception room overlooking the front garden, where an attractive fireplace incorporating a wood-burning stove creates a cosy focal point and a wonderful atmosphere during the colder months. A separate study provides an ideal home office, offering a quiet and practical space for those working from home.

To the rear, the outstanding kitchen, dining and family room forms the true heart of the home. Flooded with natural light from large windows and bi-folding doors opening onto the garden, this exceptional space has been thoughtfully designed with the serious cook in mind. The bespoke kitchen is centred around a substantial island with breakfast bar and incorporates an extensive range of contemporary cabinetry together with a premium suite of integrated Miele appliances. These include a versatile hob combining induction zones, gas burners and a hot plate, twin fan ovens, a combination microwave oven, and a vacuum sealing drawer. Ideal for preserving the freshness and quality of ingredients, extending the life of food or preparing produce for precision sous-vide cooking, this impressive culinary setup is rarely found in a domestic kitchen. The generous open-plan layout provides ample space for both formal dining and relaxed family living, creating an outstanding environment for everyday life as well as entertaining on a larger scale.

A separate snug provides additional flexibility, ideal as a children's playroom or second sitting room, and is complemented by a utility room and cloakroom with WC. Internal access leads directly into the substantial double garage.

The first floor continues to impress with four well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys a luxurious en-suite shower room with twin wash basins and a walk-in shower. Bedroom two benefits from an extensive range of fitted wardrobes, while bedrooms three and four are served by a beautifully appointed family bathroom featuring a contemporary freestanding bath and separate walk-in shower.

Outside, the property stands behind an attractive Cotswold stone wall with a lawned front garden, mature tree and generous block-paved driveway providing ample off-road parking in front of the double garage.

The rear garden has been attractively landscaped to provide an excellent space for both entertaining and family enjoyment. A large paved Egyptian sandstone terrace extends across the rear of the property, leading onto a level lawn. A substantial timber pergola creates a wonderful sheltered seating area, while a charming timber garden cabin offers an ideal children's playhouse or hobby space.

Please note: Within the next month, the property will undergo a complete exterior transformation, with the entire house being professionally rendered in white and the existing front tile hanging replaced with attractive cedar boarding, creating a striking contemporary appearance. The CGI images at the end of the marketing photos illustrate the planned finished appearance but may not be accurate. Should an offer be agreed swiftly, this transformation could be discussed or modified.
