This exceptional 1930s detached family home has been thoughtfully extended and fully renovated by the current owners to an impressive standard. Offering approximately 3,000 sq ft of beautifully appointed accommodation, the property blends generous proportions with elegant design and high-quality finishes throughout. From the stunning open-plan kitchen/dining/sitting room with wood burner to the luxurious principal suite and seamless garden connection, every detail has been carefully considered to create a stylish yet practical home. Tucked behind mature hedging in a slightly elevated position, the property enjoys excellent privacy and kerb appeal, with ample driveway parking for up to five cars.
The welcoming entrance hall features practical storage and leads through double doors into the breathtaking main living space. This light-filled area is perfect for family life and entertaining, with a wall of glazing and doors opening directly onto the rear garden to create a true indoor-outdoor flow. The kitchen is a cook’s dream, fitted with premium Siemens appliances including a steam oven, microwave, induction hob, and Quooker tap, alongside a Fisher & Paykel fridge/freezer and twin dishwashers to make entertaining a breeze. Contrasting cabinetry, a statement island with light wood tones and stainless steel worksurfaces, together with herringbone oak flooring add to the sophisticated aesthetic, while a roof lantern floods the space with natural light. The adjoining sitting area includes a wood burner, bespoke shelving, flush ceiling speakers to either end of the room and ample space for a large dining table. Additional ground floor accommodation includes a spacious family room—ideal as a formal sitting area, playroom or teen den—a cosy snug/home office with wood burner, a generous utility room, and a cloakroom with WC and basin.
Upstairs, the vaulted principal suite offers stunning garden views, a walk-in wardrobe, and a luxurious en-suite with freestanding bath, large walk-in shower, and bespoke wooden detailing. Three further double bedrooms and two stylish bathrooms (one with twin basins and bath, one with a walk-in shower) complete the first floor. The second floor offers excellent flexibility, currently arranged as a guest or teen suite with a double bedroom, study (potential sixth bedroom), and wet room. These rooms sit partially within the eaves and benefit from excellent storage. Outside, the south-facing rear garden is a real highlight. With a large lawn, sheltered patio, and additional paved seating areas ideal for summer barbecues, it’s a wonderful space for families. Mature trees and hedging offer privacy, while a picket fence encloses the rear section where a private swimming pool provides the perfect spot for fitness or fun. This is a truly outstanding family home, offering comfort, style, and space in equal measure. High-end finishes, bespoke cabinetry, underfloor heating, and a thoughtful layout combine to make this property a rare find and a joy to live in.
