5 bedroom detached house for sale

Tides Reach presents a distinguished architectural home, crafted in 1996 with locally sourced quarry stone under the discerning eye of its current owner. Nestled at the terminus of a private drive, this property exudes an air of exclusivity, providing serenity and seclusion. The residence emanates elegance and grandeur while embracing a tastefully understated design ethos. Expansive floor-to-ceiling windows and doors grace all principal rooms, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor spaces to showcase panoramic vistas of rolling lawns and serene waterscapes.

The property is currently configured as a four bedroom family home with a self-contained one bedroom apartment in the east wing and a commercial business suite in the west wing. The potential exists to amalgamate both wings into a single, substantial dwelling. Recent planning permissions allow for the addition of a detached one bedroom annexe, complementing the existing structure with matching stone façade and panoramic views, ideal for auxiliary purposes.

Upon entry, the grandeur of the residence is immediately evident in the spacious entrance hall, adorned with sleek ceramic tiles and a bifurcated
staircase leading to the galleried landing above. The ground floor boasts an impressive sitting room featuring an artisanal iron works fireplace by Dominique Lambert and expansive windows overlooking the rear lawn and Estuary. The formal dining room, also adorned with full-width windows, offers picturesque views of the garden and Estuary. The well-appointed kitchen features ample cabinetry, a breakfast bar, and high-end appliances, including a Britannia range with double oven, 7-ring hob, and integrated dishwasher. The breakfast area, bathed in southern light, provides a relaxed dining space with views of the garden and Estuary.

The east wing houses a study, utility room, larder, cloakroom, and gardener's WC, with access to the attached annexe, which boasts an open-plan kitchen/sitting room, bedroom, bathroom, and private garden area overlooking the main grounds and Estuary. Across the entrance hallway, the west wing accommodates a spacious study and a commercial business suite comprising a reception area, two treatment rooms, and a cloakroom.

Ascending the grand staircase, the galleried landing beckons with abundant natural light, offering an ideal setting for displaying artwork or quiet contemplation. The principal bedroom epitomizes luxury with its triple aspect views, three dressing rooms, and spacious en suite bathroom. Three additional bedrooms, all with Estuary views and en suite bathrooms, provide comfortable accommodation. Ample storage solutions, including
sizable airing cupboard and loft space, cater to practical needs.

Approached via double gates, Tides Reach features a substantial gravel driveway, providing parking for multiple vehicles, and a grand pillared open entrance porch. The meticulously maintained formal gardens encompass manicured lawns, paved terraces, and woodland areas, complemented by established trees, shrubs, and a sprawling vegetable patch on the west side of the property.
