Why buy this home?

Driving into Burcote Park, you are immediately enveloped by 59 acres of Edwardian woodland and picturesque rural countryside. The Stables itself is nestled along a private road among 22 executive-style country homes. 

The current owners made significant enhancements to the original design when they purchased the property. These changes included alterations to the layout, specification, and the choice of materials used. The first notable transformation is evident upon entering the impressive new entrance hall. This space is adorned with floor-to-ceiling storage featuring LED surround lighting and boasts exquisite Porcelanosa floor tiles, creating an immediate and lasting impression. Leading off the entrance hallway are the utility room and a discreetly tucked-away WC, both concealed behind solid oak pocket doors. The WC is adorned with half-height Porcelanosa wall tiles and elegant Villeroy and Boch sanitaryware. A testament to the owners' thoughtful design is the ample cupboard space in the utility room, complete with a full-height cupboard for hanging clothes and a porcelain sink. The clean lines and generous ceiling height in this hallway draw you towards the true centrepiece of the home. 

Next, you are welcomed into a spacious open-plan kitchen, dining, and family area. This showpiece room is ideal for hosting, offering the flexibility to accommodate cosy Sunday lunches, summer dinner parties, and those long-awaited family gatherings over Christmas and other popular holidays. The room exudes character while providing all the modern conveniences you'd expect, and more. The kitchen is equipped with a wide range of matching Neff appliances, including two single slide-and-hide ovens, a combination microwave/oven, and an integrated coffee machine. The focal point is the impressive feature island housing a 5-ring induction hob and a retracting glass downdraft extractor fan. On the opposite side, there is space for five stools, ensuring the chef remains an integral part of the conversation. Notable features include double pantry doors, a 5-in-1 Quooker tap, and integrated appliances such as a full-height fridge, full-height freezer, dishwasher, and a wine cooler. 

From this room, you access the spacious and inviting living room, with its striking vaulted ceilings that perfectly showcase your must have centrepiece light fitting. Nestled in the corner is a stunning freestanding dual-fuel stove with built-in log storage. Both rooms benefit from expansive windows that flood the interior with natural light. In the summer, the living room and main living space can seamlessly connect through bi-fold doors leading to the extensive Porcelain patio. The living room also has sliding doors that open directly to the garden.

The master suite exudes luxury with its vaulted ceilings, accommodating extra-tall built-in wardrobes, cleverly enhanced with three insets that provide an ideal display space for treasured photos or accessories, greeting you as you enter the room. Bifold doors open onto a spacious and private terraced courtyard, perfect for enjoying a peaceful morning coffee in the sunshine. The en-suite bathroom was expanded to include a suite of Villeroy and Boch sanitaryware, featuring a large freestanding bath and a walk-in shower. There are two additional comfortable double bedrooms that share a Jack & Jill shower room, making it an excellent arrangement for siblings or guests. The fourth bedroom is currently used as a home office with a pull-out bed, showcasing the flexibility of this single-story home. 

Above bedrooms two, three, and the bathrooms, there is a fully boarded and insulated loft space that could potentially be converted into an additional bedroom in the future, with the addition of a staircase in the rear lobby. 

One of the unique features of this family home is the double garage, which has been transformed into a games room, offering a fantastic additional space and the potential to be used as an annex for multi-generational families. The garage door remains in place, making it easily convertible back into a double garage if needed for car storage. 

Outside, in addition to the patio, there is a flat lawn area with flower borders, several outdoor power sockets, and an abundance of outdoor lighting that beautifully illuminates the property at night. Beyond the fence line, infant trees have been planted to provide additional privacy to the garden as they mature. The property boasts a driveway with parking for up to 10 cars and is pre-wired for an electric charging point. 

This property also boasts an array of state-of-the-art technology features that amplify your convenience and security. These amenities include an energy-efficient air source heat pump, ensuring year-round climate control, and multi-zone underfloor heating with individual controls for a personalised comfort experience. An app-enabled CCTV and alarm system offers remote property monitoring and added security. Stay seamlessly connected with a high-speed Cat 6 network, while elegant brushed chrome electric fittings blend style with durability.
