Tucked away on a tranquil and private woodland plot of approximately 0.7 acres, this impressive detached family home offers over 4,000 sq. Ft. Of living space in one of the region’s most desirable addresses. Surrounded by other substantial residences set on generous plots, this home combines privacy, space, and elegance in a truly idyllic setting.
Set well back from the road and approached via a private driveway, the house enjoys a peaceful position with picturesque views over mature gardens that gently slope towards a charming wooded dell. Designed to sit almost centrally within its grounds, the house is enveloped by trees, providing exceptional seclusion on all sides.
The property welcomes you through an elegant reception hall, which serves as the heart of the home, leading to a series of well-proportioned reception rooms. These include a sitting room and a separate dining room - ideal for entertaining on a grand scale. The spacious kitchen stretches nearly 20ft across the rear of the house and has been finished to a high standard with hand-crafted cabinetry, black granite work surfaces and travertine limestone flooring. This seamlessly continues into a generous utility room with additional units, garden access, a cloakroom, and a doorway into the family room.
The main sitting room exudes sophistication with a Nash-style fireplace and expansive picture windows that frame the front garden views. Double doors open into the formal dining room, which also features a fireplace and views to both the front and rear gardens. A large study provides a quiet space for working from home or could be easily adapted into a playroom or additional reception area. The family room enjoys direct access to a sunny terrace through sliding doors, creating a wonderful indoor-outdoor flow ideal for summer entertaining.
Upstairs, the generous accommodation continues with six well-appointed bedrooms. The principal suite offers built-in wardrobes and an en-suite bathroom, while a spacious guest suite enjoys a bay window to the front and an en-suite shower room. The three further bedrooms share a stylish family bathroom. The annexe bedroom is particularly versatile and perfectly suited to independent or multi-generation living, offering a large studio-style space with an en-suite shower room and access from both the ground floor and first floor landing.
Outside, the gardens wrap around the house, offering exceptional privacy and a peaceful, natural backdrop. A brick-paved driveway leads to the front and side of the home, providing ample parking for multiple vehicles, and the integral double garage - currently used as a gym, adds to the property’s flexibility.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial and beautifully presented family home in a premier location, offering space, seclusion, and outstanding living and entertaining areas inside and out.
