Description

Rainford is a masterfully refurbished, four-bedroom detached family residence that perfectly pairs contemporary luxury with effortless everyday living. Set behind secure, electric gates with a sprawling multi-vehicle driveway, this exceptional home is framed by breathtaking, mature rear gardens that offer total privacy.
A welcoming reception hallway showcases a striking bespoke staircase, a guest W/C, and direct access to the integral garage. Positioned perfectly for flexibility, a bright formal dining room features a skylight and bi-fold doors, adapting easily into an inspiring home office or a vibrant children's playroom. The Heart of the Home is the expansive, open-plan kitchen and family living hub serves as the ultimate gathering space. Culinary enthusiasts will love the premium granite worktops, the oversized central island, a suite of high-specification integrated appliances, and a matching, practical utility room. A beautifully bright formal lounge anchors the front of the home, utilizing a contemporary media-and-fireplace wall to cleverly divide the room into an intimate reading nook and a spacious area for entertaining.
Elevating the first floor, the master bedroom is a generous sanctuary complete with custom fitted wardrobes and a sleek, modern ensuite. French doors open onto a large, covered private balcony with a seamless glass balustrade—an idyllic spot for morning coffee overlooking the verdant gardens. A second double bedroom boasts its own private ensuite bathroom, while two additional double bedrooms are serviced by a showroom-style luxury family bathroom.
Ascend to the top floor to discover a remarkably bright, tranquil study. Bathed in natural light from multiple skylights, it offers an isolated, peaceful environment perfectly tailored for working from home.
The outdoor space is a major highlight with bi-folding doors that sweep open across the full width of the kitchen, dissolving the boundary between inside and out. The doors lead directly onto a massive, raised paved terrace designed for large-scale al fresco dining. Steps lead down to the beautifully manicured, established lawns—a secure, sun-drenched safe haven for children and pets to explore.
