The Property

Villa 23 Slaley Park is a highly attractive detached property constructed to a Norwegian specification in a chalet style to offer bright, airy and modern living spaces with an appealing split-level design. Surrounded by sweeping manicured lawns, the property is nestled in the quiet heart of Slaley Park, an exclusive collection of luxury homes that rarely come to market and situated in the grounds of magnificent Slaley Hall.

The front door open at upper floor level and a short staircase leads up to the wonderful welcoming sitting room. The vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and timber cladding adds to the sense of space, and the room is bathed in natural light from full height triple glazing to the gable end, along with two skylights. Solid Russian oak flooring runs underfoot, and a newly installed warming woodburning stove sits to one side. Making the most of the elevated position, French doors open to a lovely balcony with plenty of space to enjoy the south-facing position. The kitchen/dining room has a sleek contemporary appearance with simple, clean lines, marble countertops, quality fixtures and fittings and ample storage and workspace. Tiled flooring gives way to wood, defining the dining area with plenty of space for a table and chairs. A dual aspect brings lots of light to the whole room. The kitchen is complemented by a generous utility room with additional sink, storage and space for white goods.

There are two bedrooms and a bathroom on the upper floor. The superb principal suite incorporates a vast dual aspect bedroom that stretches the full width of the property with a delightful en-suite shower room. The shower room has elegant boutique styling, with a walk-in rainfall shower, wash hand basin set in a vanity unit, WC and heated towel rail all finished with pretty full tiling. The second bedroom on this floor is currently configured as a snug/office, demonstrating the flexibility on offer. This bedroom is served by a fully tiled bathroom with contemporary suite comprising bath, twin wash hand basins set in a vanity unit, WC and heated towel rail.

A staircase from the entrance hall leads down to the family room on the lower level. This spacious room offers additional reception space with half-glazed double doors opening directly to the decked patio outside. Two double bedrooms sit either side of a shower wet-room which is appointed to the same exceptional standard as the other bathrooms within the property. For health and well-being a separate sauna – typically popular in Scandinavian properties such as this – presents a fabulous self-indulgent finish to the day. Finally, a lower level entrance hall leads out to the lawned gardens to the rear of the property.

Externally

Villa 23 Slaley park rests in extensive lawned gardens with the largest plot on the development that was purchased separately by the previous owner extending in all to around ½ an acre. The manicured lawns rise gently around the property from the lower level to the upper. Adjacent to the house and accessed from the family room is the expansive decked patio. The southerly aspect ensures the best of the sun at all times of the day and throughout the year. In the height of the summer, the upper floor balcony provides a spot of shady shelter on the patio. A stone flagged patio on the upper level offers further outdoor space and also forms the path to the entrance. From this patio, curving flagged steps lead to the top of the garden where there is ample parking space at the driveway.
