Lye Head House has been completely remodelled
and extended by the current owners. No expense
has been spared during its recent renovation and
the end product is a refined property of the highest order.

This was built by the owners for the owners, and it shows. The attention to detail and quality of the workmanship throughout the accommodation is superb: The made-to-measure kitchen has wonderful bespoke detailing, Miele appliances and
a 4 oven Aga. The stylish bathrooms are sourced from Neptune. Bespoke oak joinery runs throughout, handcrafted by a high-end local joinery firm.

Crisp, clean colour palettes and lines marry with excellent design quirks and marry well to the high end finish. Natural light runs throughout, with
generous dimensions to rooms and high ceilings
adding to desirability. There is character in spades;
from the dramatic oak staircase, to steel balconies, stone chimneys, oak joinery and 2nd floor rooms
into the eaves, to the principal bedroom with gable wall of glass and a neat hidden door into the gorgeous ensuite!

Each room - whether reception, bedroom or utility - ties to comfortable modern life and does so with
bespoke amenities and confident ease.

All has been carefully considered and the craftsmanship of the finish is exemplary.

Automatic gates open to the private drive, which gently rises to the house and garage building, sitting centrally within about 7 acres, which in the main, is laid to grass with mature trees to the boundaries.

The land could easily be divided for paddocks, animals, planting orchards/woodland, meadow or increasing the formal gardens.

The property occupies a slightly elevated position, providing views and privacy.

There are various points which link into the residential space, providing a connection to inside
and out. The kitchen has bi-fold doors opening out to an Indian Sandstone patio which wraps around the southern and westerly aspects, past the
sumptuous dining room and triple aspect sitting room, joining into the enclosed courtyard to the rear which overlooks the pools and grounds beyond. A wonderful piece of commissioned art work takes centre-stage to the courtyard. An adjacent games room and outdoor seating area make for a superb entertaining area. This can also be accessed from the back hall.

There is an excellent summer house which is
connected to the WiFi and could make a very
comfortable home office.

Garage and annexe.
This is a significant property in its own right, at circa 2640 sqft. The immaculate finish continues
through this building. To the ground floor is an
impressive 5 car garage with 3 electrically operated Hormann garage doors, and a beautifully tiled floor, WC and machinery store. Upstairs is a two bedroom annexe with bath and shower room and a huge open plan kitchen/sitting/dining space with feature gable window overlooking the gardens. The first floor could be used as annexe, office or holiday lets (subject to necessary consent).

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on April 6, 2023

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
