The Property

Set at the head of a quiet cul-de-sac, this exceptional five-bedroom detached home combines generous proportions, flexible accommodation and far-reaching countryside views. Thoughtfully extended and finished to an impressive standard, it offers a layout equally suited to family life, entertaining and multi-generational living.

The vaulted reception hall creates an immediate sense of light and scale, with roof windows, herringbone flooring and a galleried landing above. The lounge spans the depth of the house, its log-burning stove providing a natural focal point for relaxed evenings. To the rear, the open-plan kitchen and dining room forms the social heart of the home. Bespoke cabinetry, integrated appliances, a walk-in pantry and a central island with a reclaimed-timber breakfast bar combine style with everyday practicality, while bi-folding doors open directly onto the garden.

A concealed door leads into the fitted utility room and integral garage, preserving the kitchen’s clean lines. Two double bedrooms are also positioned on the ground floor. The principal bedroom includes fitted wardrobes and an en-suite shower room, while the second bedroom and an additional shower room create an ideal arrangement for guests, older children or relatives seeking greater independence.

Upstairs, the galleried landing overlooks the entrance hall and leads to three further double bedrooms. The family bathroom has a luxurious yet calming finish, with a freestanding bath, walk-in shower, twin basins and underfloor heating.

Outside, the gated block-paved driveway provides extensive parking alongside the integral garage. The enclosed rear garden makes the most of its uninterrupted rural outlook, with a lawn, bespoke barbecue area and covered seating terrace with an open fireplace. A fully insulated garden room, complete with power, lighting, water and waste connections, offers excellent flexibility as an office, gym or playroom.
