Description Of Property

Denehurst is an outstanding Edwardian detached residence of distinction, occupying a substantial plot within the exclusive and leafy enclave of Streetly Wood. Offering over 6,300 sq ft of internal accommodation including a luxurious indoor pool complex and detached outbuildings, this exceptional family home represents a rare opportunity to acquire a property of remarkable scale, privacy and refinement in one of the most desirable addresses in the region.

The main house is arranged over two spacious floors and seamlessly blends classic architectural detail with modern convenience. The generous central entrance hallway provides an immediate sense of grandeur, featuring a stunning oak panelled inglenook, with the ground floor layout flowing beautifully between formal and informal living spaces. To the front of the home, the drawing-room features a large bay window, impressive antique Stuart Crystal chandelier and a feature fireplace. The dining-room offers a second impressive reception space with a rosewood surround fireplace, large rear window and double doors to the garden. A separate snug/family room provides a more relaxed family sitting-room or children’s playroom. A separate bespoke Neville Johnson study provides the ideal setting for remote working or quiet retreat.

A superb Harvey Jones breakfast-kitchen room, with extensive hand-painted cabinetry, a wall-mounted smart TV, Lacanche induction range and Miele integral appliances (dishwasher, fridge-freezer, microwave and a separate fan/conventional oven), sits at the heart of the home and opens through to a large laundry room with an Aga fridge-freezer, two concealed Worcester-Bosch boilers and spaces for a washing-machine and tumble dryer.
Beyond the kitchen lies one of Denehurst’s most exceptional features: An indoor leisure complex, comprising a large heated swimming pool with vaulted ceiling, full-length windows, and direct access to the gardens. A changing area with WC with high-quality Porcelanosa tiles and bathroom fixtures, adjacent pump room, and striking garden/gym room complete this superb space, perfect for wellness, entertaining or year-round family use.
The first floor accommodates five substantial double bedrooms. The principal bedroom suite is located to the rear of the house and benefits from a luxurious dressing room and access to an en-suite with Fired Earth high-quality design-led bathroom fixtures (scope to adapt configuration if desired).
Bedrooms two and three both feature large bay windows and generous floor space, while bedrooms four and five enjoy views across the gardens and are served by a combination of well-appointed family bathrooms and WCs with high-quality Porcelanosa tiles and bathroom fixtures, creating a highly flexible layout for modern living.

Gardens And Grounds

Externally, the property enjoys landscaped and fully enclosed private gardens that complement the scale of the home. A large patio terrace runs across the rear elevation, offering an ideal space for entertaining, with direct access from the dining room and swimming pool wing. A purpose-built pizza oven house further enhances the garden’s appeal for outdoor gatherings.
Set slightly apart from the main house, a pond that would be ideal for watching the local wildlife flourish, a detached summer house with vaulted ceiling and two adjoining store rooms offers huge potential for use as a home office, gym, creative studio or annexe. A generous garage, along with a gated private driveway, provides ample secure parking for multiple vehicles.

At the far end of the garden, there is a secluded tennis court, with a nearby “pavilion” that provides changing facilities, as well as a place to snatch a cold drink from the fridge after an energetic game of tennis.

Thoughtfully maintained and rich in potential, Denehurst offers a rare combination of period charm, extensive accommodation, and premium lifestyle features in an exclusive and peaceful setting. Ideal for those seeking a truly special family home, this property must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
