## Description

This beautifully designed contemporary home is, in our opinion, one of the best houses of this age and style currently available in the whole of Hale and the surrounding areas. 

The property offers spacious and incredibly versatile accommodation that extends to around 5500 sq ft and the sense of space is accentuated by the vaulted ceilings and floor to ceiling windows throughout. The property has an excellent relationship with the private landscaped grounds that extend to around 0.35 acres.

The ground floor accommodation is arranged around a striking entrance hall with a highly engineered security door with ceramic tiles, oak staircase and glass balustrades. The 'hub of the house' is the dining kitchen which is fitted with a Jamie Robins kitchen with high quality and contemporary base and eye level units with granite work surfaces and a matching island unit. There are integrated Siemens and Miele appliances and a Quooker instant hot water tap. Bi-folding doors give direct access to the rear garden.

There is a large living room with floor to ceiling windows and patio doors opening to the garden and a Ortal log effect gas fire as well as a separate sitting room with a Rais wood burning stove. The media room measures an impressive 28'1 x 15'2 and includes a games room with fitted bar and sink and a home cinema room with built in equipment, recessed screen and speaker outlets for 7.1 Dolby sound. There is also a cloaks/wc and a utility room with built in base units with heat resistant work surfaces and a large inset sink. 

The principal bedroom suite is approached via a reception area which leads to a large shower room, dressing area and opens into a fabulous vaulted ceiling bedroom with private balcony and glass balustrade overlooking the rear gardens below. The dressing area is fitted with full height hanging space and storage whilst the shower room has a contemporary suite with large wash basin with storage drawer, recessed mirrors and down lighters, wall hung wc, wet area fully tiled with thermostatic shower and heated towel rail. A staircase leads to an open plan bathroom/dressing area with freestanding Victoria and Albert bath with mixer tap and shower attachment, overlooking the bedroom below. 

There are three further suites, all of which have their own dressing areas and beautifully appointed en suite bath/shower rooms as well as Juliet balconies overlooking the gardens below. The fifth bedroom is also a large double bedroom and is served by the luxurious family bathroom that is fitted with a 

large rectangular wash basin with storage drawer, recessed mirror and down lighters, wall hung wc, fully tiled Duravit bath and shower. There is a galleried landing with glass balustrade, a utility room and a separate laundry room.

The second floor accommodation is accessed via two staircases and is currently used as a study. The room enjoys fantastic views over the rear gardens and has a Juliet balcony and full height sliding doors. There is extensive and invaluable built in storage space and a plant room.

The property occupies a large plot of around 0.35 acres and is approached via secure remotely operated gates. A neatly tarmacadam driveway provides off road parking and turning space for a number of vehicles and leads to the integral double garage. The garage is accessed via Silvelox dual interlocking up and over security door.  There is lighting and power and a hot and cold water supply. 

The lawned rear gardens are incredibly private and are fringed by well stocked borders with mature trees, shrubs and bushes on the side and rear boundaries forming a pleasing backdrop to the property. There is an oak clad and insulated summer house, which would be ideal as a a gymnasium or office.

This is a truly impressive modern home that will satisfy even the most discering of purchasers.
