This wonderful light and spacious informal family area is ideal for modern living with a bank of floor to ceiling doors and windows with a matching atrium roof lantern flooding the room with natural light. The bespoke, hand built kitchen is by Guild Anderson Furniture and features full height larder cupboards, walk-in pantry, built-in appliances by Gaggenau and an L shaped central island perfect for informal dining. Located next to the kitchen is a further “prep” kitchen comprising an extensive range of units, with oven and sink alongside twin full height wine fridges. Accessed from the kitchen are the utility room, boot room and plant room, again all thoughtfully planned for ease of access and internal maintenance.

There are five further double bedrooms including two full suites and two well-appointed bath/shower rooms (one further en-suite).

The property is situated on a magnificent plot approaching one acre and enjoying a pleasant Southerly aspect.

Extensively landscaped throughout the mature gardens are a joy. Set back well on its plot the property is approached past electronically operated Wrought Iron gates and over a sweeping gravel driveway framed by areas of lawn studded with specimen trees and well stocked borders. Mature hedging provides a high level of screening and privacy.

An expansive patio laid with porcelain tiles by London Stone frames the rear of the house and provides a series of split level entertaining areas surrounding a heated outdoor swimming pool with hard cover.

The gardens themselves are laid to expansive lawn interspersed by well stocked beds and bordered with mature hedging and trees.
