A fitted bar sits adjacent to a duo of wine fridges, and a wall of French doors connects to the patio. Equally sublime, a superior Poggenpohl kitchen is supremely well-appointed with a peninsular bar and Miele appliances. Under the exposed beams of a vaulted ceiling its charming dining area has further access to the gardens, whilst a utility room keeps laundry hidden from view. A study completes the ground floor

Upstairs, a luxurious principal bedroom has a wonderful dressing room leading to a sumptuous en suite with a Japanese Jacuzzi bath and steam shower. A second bedroom has a fabulous en suite of its own, while three equally impressive bedrooms share a luxury family bathroom.

Outside

The established lawns, colourful flowerbeds and tall trees that border the sweeping brick paved driveway combine with the quintessential double fronted facade of the house to produce a picture perfect first impression. Climbing clematis reaches up alongside the arched covered doorway lending a hugely enticing welcome, and the brick paved driveway accommodates numerous vehicles.

At the rear the copious French doors of the sitting room and kitchen tempt you out onto the patio for al fresco dining. Bordered by statuesque trees and mature shrubs, an expansive lawn stretches out before you. A children’s play area is a notable addition and bike storage is a considered finishing touch.
