Step Inside
Thorneycroft is a bespoke, architect-designed, luxurious executive home that’s been built to an exceptional specification by a highly regarded local company. Traditional craftsmanship is blended with contemporary materials and the latest smart home and eco-friendly technologies for the ultimate in modern living.

An impressive wooden front door beneath a wide porch leads to a light-filled, double-height entrance hall that sets the tone for this remarkable executive family home.

Lying ahead is a generous 45ft (13.99 metre)-long open plan dining and family room with a kitchen, all designed around an L shape. Two sets of bi-fold doors open out onto a large sunken patio and the garden beyond, extending the home outside and creating a fabulous space for entertaining. Above the doors is a retractable shade.

The light-filled kitchen has hand-built cabinets in a classic grey shade, marble worktops and Mandarin Stone flooring. There’s a large island unit with a breakfast bar and sink, all beneath a roof lantern, and there’s space for large fridges.

The family room has a fireplace fitted with a wood-burning stove for cosy winter nights indoors.

To the left of the hallway is a large living room, while another large room suitable for dining or a study sits on the righthand side. Behind it is a spacious utility room and a WC.

Stairs from the hall lead to five generous bedrooms that lie off a galleried landing.

The principal suite has a large walk-in wardrobe and an en suite with a bath.

Two of the other bedrooms have en suite shower rooms, and there’s a large family bathroom, all lined with marble.

Thorneycroft is decorated to a high standard throughout the property. Other features include keyless entry, a sprinkler system and underfloor heating, making it comfortable throughout the year.

This is a property that’s been built with the environment in mind, with an air source heat pump and solar panels providing warmth and electricity.
