Description

A home of remarkable scale, distinction and presence, this magnificent double-fronted detached residence occupies a commanding position within one of the area’s most desirable residential settings. Standing proudly within a generous south-westerly facing plot, its elegant proportions and beautifully balanced elevations create an immediate impression of quality, timeless architecture and understated grandeur.
Substantially extended and comprehensively enhanced during the current owners’ tenure, the property has almost doubled in size and now offers approximately 3,300 sq ft of impeccably balanced accommodation. Designed to meet the demands of modern family life whilst retaining an abundance of character and refinement, this is a home that effortlessly combines impressive entertaining space with exceptional everyday practicality.
An impressive reception hall provides a fitting introduction, setting the tone for the scale found throughout. To the front of the property, the magnificent drawing room, illuminated by an elegant bay window, offers a sophisticated formal reception room, whilst a second bay-fronted family room provides a wonderfully relaxed retreat.
The formal dining room, centred around an attractive open fireplace, flows seamlessly through double doors into the orangery creating an elegant sequence of reception spaces ideally suited to both entertaining and family gatherings. At the heart of the home lies a dining kitchen, complemented by a practical utility room and downstairs WC. Completing the ground floor is a superb leisure room, currently arranged around a hot tub offering exceptional versatility as a gym, games room or additional entertaining space.
The first floor is equally impressive, comprising five beautifully proportioned bedrooms. The principal suite enjoys an attractive bay window, built in wardrobes and an en-suite shower room. Both the second and third bedrooms benefit from their own en-suite facilities, whilst the remaining bedroom is served by the family bathroom.
The second floor provides two further substantial double bedrooms, offering remarkable flexibility. Whether utilised as additional guest accommodation, private home offices, cinema rooms, creative studios or playrooms, these spaces adapt effortlessly to the evolving needs of modern family life.
In total, the property offers seven generous bedrooms, providing exceptional versatility for growing families, multi-generational living or those who simply appreciate the luxury of space.
Outside the property is securely enclosed behind electronically operated pedestrian and vehicular gates, a substantial driveway provides extensive parking and access to the generous double garage. Mature hedgerow boundaries frame the front gardens, creating an immediate sense of privacy.
The landscaped gardens to the side and rear are a particular highlight. Enjoying a south-westerly orientation, they are perfectly positioned to capture afternoon and evening sunshine throughout the warmer months. Expanses of lawn are complemented by beautifully stocked mature borders, generous entertaining patio and an artificial lawn area, all enclosed by established planting to create an exceptionally private outdoor environment.
Offered to the market with no onward chain rarely does a home combine such impressive proportions, presence and versatility with gardens of this quality and orientation.

  • Target investor price — Rent ÷ 1%; the price at which rent would be 1% of price (strong cashflow band).
  • Gross yield — Annual rent as % of purchase price (no costs).
  • Cost-to-rent — Price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables). Under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed.
  • Cashflow — Rent minus mortgage, 10% maintenance, £25/mo compliance. Assumes 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term.
