Description
The property is entered via a welcoming entrance porch leading into a grand central reception hall, featuring a prominent split staircase rising to the first floor. The ground floor living space includes a formal dining room alongside a remarkably spacious principal lounge, which features a custom media wall, an integrated wood-burning stove, and expansive windows capitalizing on the rear rural views. A separate sitting room provides further versatile living space, equipped with sliding glass doors opening onto a balcony with a sleek glass balustrade that offers far-reaching views over the surrounding fields. The kitchen has been refitted to an exacting standard with contemporary gloss grey units, solid work surfaces, and a suite of integrated high-quality Bosch appliances, including an induction hob with an integrated extractor, electric oven, microwave, and a built-in coffee machine. A separate utility room is fitted with matching cabinetry to ensure continuity of design and practical storage.
The first-floor gallery landing provides access to five generous double bedrooms. The master suite features a dedicated walk-in wardrobe and an en-suite shower room. Bedroom two also benefits from its own private refitted en-suite shower room, while bedrooms three, four, and five are all well-proportioned double rooms featuring built-in fitted wardrobes. A stylish family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms with high-specification contemporary sanitaryware.
The lower ground level is dedicated to health and leisure, comprising a dedicated home gym and an expansive games room featuring a fitted bar area. Sliding glass doors provide direct access out onto the rear garden, creating a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor space that is ideal for entertaining.
Approached via an extensive block-paved driveway offering ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles, the front leads to a detached double garage equipped with an electric up-and-over door. Outdoor living space is extensive: a large side terrace provides seamless access to the kitchen for outdoor dining, while a recently reconstructed steel-frame raised terrace to the rear features glass balustrading to maximize the panoramic rural aspect. The principal garden area has been designed for low maintenance with an extensive composite deck, quality artificial lawn, raised shrub borders, and glass perimeter fencing bordering open countryside. Additionally, the grounds include a purpose-built, highly versatile outbuilding currently utilized as a golf simulator room, which is equally suited for use as a home office or creative studio.
Viewing is strictly by appointment. This turnkey home must be viewed internally to fully appreciate the size, quality of finish, and beautiful position on offer.

Rent-driven metrics
Based on OpenRent comparables.
- Rent ratio — Monthly rent ÷ purchase price (1% rule). 1%+ = strong, 0.8–1% = okay, <0.8% = weak for cashflow.
- Max investor price — Rent ÷ 0.8%; the price at which rent would be 0.8% of price (Stoke-style target).
- 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.
- ROI — Annual profit ÷ cash in (deposit + 4% purchase costs).
