A beautifully designed family home

Description

A beautifully designed red brick family home tucked at the end of a country lane with unrivalled country views. The house is tremendously handsome in appearance, designed with family life in mind and finished to a high specification. With multiple gables, outside terraces, balcony, covered Loggia with built-in Pizza Oven & BBQ seating area, outdoor kitchen, communal Fire Pit, ground source heated and wood fired Hot Tub and a crystal clear natural swimming pool with decking, this house has the whole package.

As you enter, your eye is drawn to the curved staircase and expansive hallway which is the backbone of the property and immediately creates a sense of space and luxury. As you move along the hallway to the right, which faces those country views, are three very large rooms; an office space, formal dining room (which allows access to the front patio) and sitting room with cosy log burner set in an impressive red brick.

On the left of the hallway is the fifth bedroom with en suite and large laundry room with additional pantry space. You then enter the kitchen which is framed by beautiful wooden beams, a well thought out design feature is the centralised island, with the kitchen wrapped around it, which makes the room incredibly social and a joy to be in. It also boasts a large American style fridge/freezer and triple height ceilings.

For more informal living there is a family sitting room, with log burner, which is enhanced further by the triple height ceilings and is a great space for those winter nights and has access to the cosy outside BBQ area. A second staircase leading to an upper floor cinema room which could easily double up as a wellness space, is a great communal area to be in.

The principle suite has been designed to maximise the rural location with the bed centralised in the room, facing the countryside views. Adjoining is the large private sun deck & balcony, which is a wonderful peaceful space to enjoy the afternoon sun. There is also a large dressing area and an en suite with bath. The following three double bedrooms on this floor are well proportioned with built in wardrobes, all with en suite shower rooms.

The natural swimming pool is a low maintenance, high impact feature to the house and during the summer months it is a great space to enjoy and for those who enjoy a swim, warmed only by the sun through Summer months and is similar to lake swimming through autumn & spring. Finally there is an Oak & Cedar two vehicle carport with facility for fast Electric Charging should that be required.
