Designed by Williams Architecture and completed in 2020, Lagom embodies its namesake — a Swedish term meaning ‘in balance’ — through a masterful synthesis of robust, tactile materials softened by considered detailing. Its dynamic, stepped form is complemented by gardens created by acclaimed local designer Emma Aspinall, resulting in a seamless dialogue between architecture and nature. Spanning three floors, this thoughtfully designed residence offers four generously proportioned bedrooms, a suite of luminous living spaces, and seamless access to a meticulously landscaped garden sanctuary. Ideally positioned for the commuter, with excellent transport links nearby, the home also benefits from close proximity to charming market towns and expansive countryside. Lagom’s U-shaped footprint and abundant glazing create an exceptional connection to its thoughtfully landscaped surroundings. The gardens offer a harmonious blend of lawn, floral borders, and mature planting, including dark purple verbena, alliums, bamboo hedging, and pleached photinia trees, creating a series of tranquil outdoor rooms. Multiple dining and lounging areas invite alfresco living, while a mature apple tree at the garden’s rear provides dappled shade, perfect for relaxing. Approached via a generous gravel driveway with ample parking, the home’s commanding silhouette hints at the voluminous and versatile spaces within. Upon entry, a spacious hallway introduces a carefully curated material palette of pre-cast concrete walls and flooring — simultaneously raw, tactile, and understated, setting a serene tone throughout. At the heart of the ground floor lies a superb open-plan kitchen, dining and sitting room, flooded with natural light from expansive bifold doors that effortlessly dissolve the boundary between interior and garden. The kitchen features sleek charcoal cabinetry, a central Corian island with breakfast bar, and integrated appliances including dual warming drawers, wine fridges, and a bespoke coffee machine. The adjoining dining area accommodates a large table for ten, while a cosy snug at the far end offers a quiet retreat. A second sitting room towards the front benefits from bespoke built-in conversation pit seating. All reception rooms overlook a private external courtyard through floor-to-ceiling sliding doors, an ideal configuration for gatherings. Additional ground floor accommodation includes a study, a utility room fitted with matching Corian surfaces and charcoal cabinetry, and a guest cloakroom. Below, the basement level currently serves as versatile storage with exciting potential for a swimming pool, benefiting from pre-excavated space and plans available upon request. There is direct access to the rear garden too. A striking floating staircase leads to four spacious double bedrooms, each with luxurious en suite facilities. The principal suite occupies a peaceful, private corner and features generous built-in wardrobes and a spa-inspired en suite with Lusso Stone sanitaryware, twin basins, and a large walk-in shower. A glass Juliet balcony affords tranquil views across the garden, the greenbelt, and beyond to the Manchester skyline. Ample built-in storage and a separate laundry room complete the first-floor layout. **Location** Lymm is a lovely Cheshire village renowned for its historic charm, vibrant community, and excellent local amenities.
