This wonderful and unique family home, built by the previous owner to suit her requirements, could have absolutely been found on the Mediterranean or in the fashionable coastal cities of the US but is located in reality in a gated enclave off Kingston Hill.
This exceptional property has since been modernised, extended and adapted to meet modern standards and requirements. It boasts beautiful landscaped and secluded rear and front gardens with secure gated forecourt offering ample forecourt parking to the double garages.
Once through the CCTV controlled security gates off Coombe Park, the property is off the right hand fork and on the right hand side benefitting from a South West facing rear garden.
The property is approached via remote controlled operated gates to a cobbled forecourt bordered by an extensive variety of mature climbers and bushes to the main door of the house.
On entering the property, natural day light from the tall windows in the octagonal bay floods the galleried entrance hall, which boasts a marble tiled floor with a decorative border. This area opens onto the formal drawing room, dining room, study and kitchen/family room. However, before entering this wonderful reception hall is a vestibule area with built in cupboards to either side.
The formal drawing room offers split-level living areas, with built in display shelving and base cupboards with down lighters to either side of the marble gas fireplace and wood strip flooring. A set of bi-folding glazed doors lead to the central dining room, with a capacity for seating 14 at the table, which is open plan onto the orangery, a wonderful tiled floor room benefitting from underfloor heating and air conditioning throughout, which is also flooded with light by the large set of bi-folding glazed doors leading to the rear patio and garden, as well as the large windows to either sides of the doors and a large sky lantern spanning the room. Serving this area is a built-in unit housing the hob and extractor fan above.
Interconnected is the kitchen/breakfast family room, with modern wall and base units and island and elevated glass bar. The latter incorporates the open cooking and washing facilities with a 90 cm built in oven, microwave oven, plate warmer and steam oven to the wall units. The recessed ceiling extractor fan is above the island. The range of wall units is also home to built-in fridge and freezer and an additional wine cooler built into the island. The kitchen also opens onto the family living area with a TV to the angled wall with recessed speakers and tranquil views over the rear garden.
The laundry room, off the kitchen, leads to the wine cellar and back door and eventually into the double integral garage. Also to the ground floor is the opulent guest cloakroom and walk-in cloaks cupboard.
The generous study facing the front courtyard offers two walls of built in cupboards and shelving and wood strip flooring.
The first floor is home to six bedrooms, with a seventh on the converted second floor, with a luxurious en suite shower room and access to a vast storage room which could also be developed into further accommodation.
The principal bedroom enjoys access to the decked terrace, as with the other rear adjoining bedrooms, with a walk-in dressing room which boasts a range of Hulsta lacquered wardrobes with plinth lighting, and leading to the luxurious en suite bathroom with a separate glazed ‘steam cabinet’ shower, oval bath, elevated WC, bidet and twin wash hand basins in a wall mounted wall unit.
The other rear bedrooms also open onto the decked terrace and a share an en suite shower room with underfloor heating. The right wing of the house is home to three double bedrooms, en suite shower and family bathroom with separate shower cubicle. All the bedrooms boast an extensive collection of wardrobes. Five of the seven bedrooms enjoy the further benefit of having air conditioning as well.
The gardens are lavishly appointed with a tiled terrace across the rear width of the house, complimented with awnings and patio heaters, with large stepping stones leading to the covered gazebo and sun room, with a built in sauna and shower facilities with cloakroom.
The heated outdoor swimming pool is bordered by decking and offers a tranquil feature to the rear garden which extends beyond this area, with a large green house to one corner on a concrete platform and fit for a further alpine summer house.
The gardens are beautifully lit at night and offers total seclusion by the mature plants and climbers. To the rear left of the garden is an overground water tank that is organically filled from a borehole that serves the swimming pool and garden irrigation. (This has to be emptied and clean once annually). There are also footpaths to the front garden that sweep within the mature bushes to a wood gazebo.
Summerhouse: This purpose built accommodation houses the pool plant room that also houses a separate boiler for the summerhouse for the hot water and heating in addition to the boiler for swimming pool including a separate fuse board. The accommodation offers a kitchenette, shower room with a low level WC, wash hand basin and shower cubicle and a separate Sauna cabin that could be converted to a walk in cupboard instead.
