About this property
Stunning Architect Designed Single Storey Residence
Steel Framed With Full Height Glazing To Two Sides
Open Plan Living Space With Superb Countryside Views
Two Bedrooms
Versatile Open Plan Layout Throughout
Modern Kitchen/Breakfast Room & Shower Room
Underfloor Heating
Attractively Landscaped Garden & Carport
Originally Commissioned By Peter Reyner Banham For His Artist Wife, Mary Banham
This exceptional two-bedroomed detached property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a truly unique, architect-designed single storey residence.
Originally commissioned for an artist as a country retreat and studio in the early 1990s, the property is steel framed and features full height glazing to two sides, allowing natural light to flood the kitchen and living areas throughout the day.
The stunning open plan living space is thoughtfully arranged to maximise superb countryside views, creating a tranquil and inspiring environment. The versatile layout flows seamlessly between the modern kitchen and breakfast room, the spacious living area, and two well-proportioned bedrooms separated from their adjoining rooms by blinds which can be raised to add to the open plan feel.
A contemporary shower room, underfloor heating, and high-quality finishes add to the comfort and appeal of this beautifully designed home.
Every aspect has been carefully considered to create a modern yet inviting space that is perfect for both relaxing and entertaining.
The outside space is equally impressive, with an attractively landscaped garden that overlooks open countryside and offers uninterrupted views towards Ely Cathedral. The garden comprises a well-maintained lawn bordered by established beds, a charming path that leads beneath a timber pergola to a tranquil pond, and a productive vegetable plot for those who enjoy gardening.
Running alongside the property, a driveway beneath a carport offers convenient off-road parking.
The combination of thoughtfully designed outdoor areas and open rural vistas creates a peaceful setting that perfectly complements the contemporary interior, making this a truly special home just a few minutes by car from the Cathedral city of Ely with its mainline railway station.
The property was designed at the instruction of Peter Reyner Banham, who was one of the most important architectural historians of the 20th century, for his wife Mary Reyner Banham, who was herself a noted artist, and has featured in a number of architectural books and journals as a case study having proved of great interest to those working within that industry.
To fully appreciate the light and style this wonderful property offers a viewing is highly recommended.
