A beautifully appointed and individually designed five-bedroom detached residence, offering exceptional versatility, luxurious accommodation and an impressive specification throughout, complemented by superb lifestyle facilities and beautifully established gardens.

Constructed in attractive Farmington Stone and extending to approximately 3,242 sq. ft. of principal accommodation, this substantial residence has been thoughtfully designed to create a home equally suited to everyday family life and entertaining on a grand scale.

From the moment you arrive, the attention to detail is immediately apparent. An expansive block-paved driveway provides generous parking and access to the detached-style double garage, while the handsome stone elevations, oak-framed entrance porch and landscaped surroundings create an impressive first impression.

At the heart of the home lies the magnificent kitchen and dining room, a truly impressive space designed for those who appreciate both exceptional craftsmanship and outstanding functionality. The bespoke Mackintosh kitchen features a combination of hand-painted solid wood and oak cabinetry, complemented by elegant Dekton worktops and a substantial central island incorporating a solid oak breakfast bar.

The comprehensive collection of premium NEFF appliances includes Slide & Hide ovens, steam cooking facilities, a combination microwave, induction hob, integrated refrigeration, coffee machine and warming drawer. Two dedicated wine coolers, a Faber ceiling extractor, a Blanco Silgranit sink and a four-in-one instant boiling and filtered water tap further enhance the exceptional specification.

With ample space for dining and entertaining, integrated ceiling speakers, air conditioning and direct access to the gardens, this is a wonderfully sociable room that effortlessly brings together cooking, dining and family life.

Adjoining the kitchen is a beautifully presented reception room, where a striking natural stone feature wall incorporates a contemporary double-sided glass gas fireplace, creating an attractive focal point shared with the kitchen. French doors open directly onto the garden, allowing the living accommodation to flow naturally into the outside space during the warmer months. Integrated media connections and ceiling speakers add another layer of convenience and luxury.

The ground floor also benefits from a separate utility room, finished with Dekton worktops and a ceramic sink, providing a practical space away from the principal living accommodation.

A particularly appealing feature of Littlecroft is its flexible bedroom arrangement. The generous principal bedroom suite is positioned on the ground floor, offering an exceptional degree of privacy and comfort. The suite incorporates a beautifully appointed dressing room with fitted Urbano wardrobes and bespoke storage, together with air conditioning and integrated entertainment connections.

The luxurious principal bathroom has been designed with relaxation firmly in mind, featuring a substantial whirlpool and air-spa bath, a walk-in rainfall shower with integrated seating, twin vanity facilities and illuminated mirrors. An integrated Aquavision television, ceiling speakers and sophisticated sanitaryware complete this indulgent space.
A further spacious ground-floor bedroom benefits from fitted Laura Ashley cabinetry and access to bathroom facilities, making it ideally suited to guests, extended family members or those seeking the convenience of single-level living.
For anyone working from home, the dedicated study is another exceptional addition. Beautifully fitted with Laura Ashley painted solid wood cabinetry, oak worktops and air conditioning, it provides a sophisticated and practical environment for professional use

The first floor offers a further collection of generously proportioned bedrooms, complemented by a central snug which provides a relaxed additional sitting area, ideal for teenagers, visiting family or simply somewhere to retreat.

The bedroom accommodation is served by beautifully finished bathroom facilities, including a stylish family bathroom with an oversized bath and separate walk-in shower, together with a guest bathroom featuring a freestanding roll-top bath, contemporary shower enclosure and elegant vanity fittings.

Throughout the property, considerable thought has been given to comfort, technology and the quality of the internal finishes. Oak joinery, zoned underfloor heating to the ground floor, air conditioning to selected rooms, integrated entertainment systems, CCTV and comprehensive security arrangements all contribute to a home that has been designed with modern living in mind.

The outside space at Littlecroft is every bit as impressive as the accommodation within. To the rear, a substantial and beautifully maintained lawn provides a wonderful sense of openness, bordered by established trees that create an attractive and private-feeling setting.

A particularly striking feature is the covered outdoor entertaining pavilion, a superb space for alfresco dining, relaxing and socialising throughout much of the year. With comfortable seating areas and a natural connection to the house and gardens, it feels like an extension of the living accommodation.

The gardens have been thoughtfully arranged for both relaxation and recreation, with a hot tub area beneath a purpose-built pergola, alongside a built-in barbecue and pizza oven, providing the perfect setting for summer gatherings.

For those who enjoy growing their own produce, a separate garden area includes raised vegetable beds, an attractive oak greenhouse and established growing spaces. A substantial garden store provides additional storage.
Another exciting feature is the cinema room, offering a dedicated entertainment space away from the main residence. Equipped with a remarkable 126-inch projection screen, JVC projector, MK speaker system and bespoke fitted kitchenette, it is an exceptional facility for film nights, gaming and entertaining. Integrated outdoor speakers and lighting further enhance this impressive building.

The double garage provides secure parking and additional storage, with an electrically operated insulated door, power, lighting and a mezzanine level offering further storage possibilities.
