A secluded, energy efficient family home with exceptional entertaining space and beautiful grounds.
Description
A beautifully reimagined five bedroom country home arranged over three thoughtfully designed levels, set within a wonderfully private position and enhanced by extensive grounds, private woodland copse, modern energy saving technology and exceptional ancillary accommodation.
The property has been significantly extended and upgraded by the current owner, combining generous proportions with a refined contemporary finish. A series of energy efficient installations including solar pv panels, solar inverters, electric car charger, air source heat pump and solar hot water which ensure the house performs as impressively as it presents.
The ground floor opens into a reception hall leading to a dedicated study, cloakroom and guest WC. A formal sitting room fitted with bose integrated audio which flows through to the dining room and a second reception space, from which steps descend to the lower ground floor.
This versatile level offers a superb games room with bose integrated 5:1 surround sound system, two double bedrooms and a shower room ideal for guests, older children or multigenerational living.
The second sitting room also connects to a substantial kitchen, beautifully appointed with a Rangemaster cooker, Insinkerator, Quooker boiling water tap, wine fridge, and an exceptional walk in pantry and is supported by a practical utility room.
The first floor provides three generous double bedrooms, each with its own ensuite, alongside a family bathroom.
Outside, the property excels as an entertaining home. A large raised patio overlooks the gardens, complemented by a decked terrace with hot tub and a striking covered smart timber dining pavilion that has heating and services
Beyond the formal garden lies a separate paddock and ownership of part of the neighbouring woodland copse, enhancing both privacy and amenity. Within the garden there is a shed, wood store and covered secure area for gardening equipment.
A double garage fitted with electric doors houses the air source heat pump, electric car charger and a boarded loft sits near a substantial timber chalet outbuilding, currently arranged as a professional office suite and a fully equipped gym with shower room, WC and sink. This building has central heating and bose integrated audio and also houses the solar inverters, with the panels mounted discreetly on its roof.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a electric gated, highly flexible, energy efficient home in a secluded yet convenient setting and is finished to an exceptional standard throughout.
