Description
Description
Springwood is an impressive Arts and Crafts–style residence offering extensive accommodation in a private and mature setting. Completed in 2009, the property successfully combines traditional architectural detailing with contemporary design, providing approximately 7,600 sq ft of accommodation arranged over four floors and set within about 0.70 acre of landscaped gardens.
The exterior features decorative stonework, traditional brick elevations, hardwood windows and a slate roof. Internally, the house offers high ceilings, deep skirting boards, bespoke stone fireplaces and a handcrafted kitchen.
The property is entered via oversized double doors into a striking reception hall with floor-to-ceiling glazing and a split-level American walnut staircase. A formal drawing room with bay window lies to the front, while to the rear is the principal living space incorporating an open-plan kitchen, dining area and day room. French doors and a Juliet balcony provide access to an upper terrace overlooking the gardens. A large utility room connects directly to the garage and side entrance.
The lower ground floor is naturally well lit and includes a substantial games and media room with fully fitted bar and bi-fold doors opening onto a sun terrace, along with a study. The leisure suite comprises a 10m x 4m indoor swimming pool, gymnasium, sauna, changing facilities and shower, creating a private spa environment.
The first floor features a generous principal bedroom suite with dressing room and en suite bathroom, together with three further en suite double bedrooms. The second floor provides two additional double bedrooms and a family bathroom.
Outside, the gardens are landscaped and offer a high degree of privacy, with lawns, mature planting and woodland beyond. A play area includes a mini football pitch and basketball court. The property is approached via electric gates, with an integral double garage to the front.
Springwood offers an exceptional opportunity to acquire a substantial, well-appointed home in a secluded setting, combining classic style with modern luxury.
