Description
Set behind a wide gravelled approach and framed by handsome brick and dark timber elevations, this barn-inspired home commands instant presence. Approaching 4,000 sq. ft., it has been thoughtfully laid out to blend sleek architectural lines with luxurious, light-filled interiors, purpose-built for modern family life.
At its heart lies a magnificent open-plan kitchen and living space - flooded with natural light and anchored by a striking central island. High-gloss cabinetry, integrated appliances, and beautiful chandelier lighting make this space as functional as it is impressive. Expansive bi-fold doors open seamlessly onto the rear terrace, offering effortless indoor-outdoor living.
A grand, full-height reception hall with a glass-framed staircase and galleried landing sets a dramatic tone on arrival. The ground floor includes multiple reception rooms: a generous sitting room, a flexible second reception (currently a children’s playroom but would be equally at home as a formal dining room), and a private office perfectly suited to hybrid working. Underfloor heating - powered by a renewable air source heat pump - ensures year-round comfort throughout the ground level.
Upstairs, five beautifully appointed bedrooms are arranged around a spacious landing, offering ideal family and guest accommodation. The principal suite is nothing short of extraordinary: tucked into the private rear wing, it benefits from its own second-floor dressing room with bespoke storage. The lavish en-suite features a walk-in shower and a jacuzzi soaking tub beneath Velux skylights, complete with a built-in Smart TV for ultimate relaxation.
Outside, the property continues to impress. A large double garage, ample parking, and clean landscaping complete the frontage, while the rear garden offers plenty of potential for outdoor entertaining and enjoyment.
Discreetly located in the popular hamlet of Plash Drove, yet within easy reach of Wisbech St. Mary, local schools, and commuter routes to Peterborough and Cambridge, this is a truly special opportunity to acquire a one-of-a-kind family home.
