Description

A Rare Opportunity – Executive Four-Bedroom Detached Residence on an Exceptional Plot

Occupying a commanding, larger-than-average plot and set well back from the main thoroughfare behind a sweeping driveway, this exquisite four-bedroom detached home combines space, style, and sophistication in equal measure. Perfectly designed for modern family living and entertaining, this beautifully presented residence boasts a wealth of versatile living spaces and luxurious features throughout.
Upon entering, you're greeted by a welcoming entrance hall leading to a spacious living room, a dedicated study ideal for home working, and a stunning extended open-plan kitchen-diner that forms the heart of the home. Thoughtfully designed and flooded with natural light, the kitchen-diner features high-end finishes, generous dining and seating areas, and seamless views over the private rear garden. A separate utility room adds practical convenience.
Upstairs, the first floor offers four well-proportioned bedrooms, including a relaxing main bedroom with its own private en-suite shower room. Three further bedrooms are served by a stylish family bathroom, making this home ideal for growing families or guests.
The outdoor space is equally impressive. The rear garden has been re-landscaped to create a truly private, tranquil retreat, backing directly onto woodland, perfect for relaxing, entertaining, or enjoying nature year-round. To the front, a generous sweeping driveway provides ample off-road parking.
Further enhancing the appeal is a unique garage conversion currently used as a professionally soundproofed recording studio, an incredibly versatile space that would also make an exceptional home office, gym, or creative workspace. Added bonus of air conditioning in the summer and heating in the winter, making it useable all year round.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a home of this calibre, offering executive living in a peaceful and prestigious setting. Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the space, style, and seclusion this outstanding home has to offer.
