Designed by Bower Edleston Architects, this distinctive modern residence offers over 3,000 sq ft of design-led accommodation, created to maximise light, space and flow. Extensive glazing runs throughout the property, drawing in natural light and creating a strong connection to the surrounding landscape.

Open-plan living areas, split-level design and feature architectural elements, including a central glass and steel staircase give the home a unique identity that will appeal to buyers seeking something beyond the traditional country house.

At the heart of the home is a high-specification bespoke kitchen with central island, integrated premium appliances and generous storage, opening into multiple dining and seating areas with direct access to terraces and gardens. A series of reception spaces, including sunken and elevated seating areas, provide flexibility for both formal and informal living.
