5 bedroom detached house

An exemplary, modernist residence with leisure suite, completed as a bespoke commission in 2016, in a semi rural and very private location within immaculate gardens and grounds of nearly two acres, tucked away at the end of a long secure gated driveway enjoying open South Westerly views over the surrounding countryside.

With Prestbury village and all that it offers in terms of day to day facilities and restaurants just over half a mile distant, the house is quiet and private but not at all isolated, and the location very much offers the best of both worlds.

Designed by the owners for their own occupation and finished to a superb standard throughout with exceptional quality, the open plan accommodation and seamless glass walls flow onto flush level terraces with immaculate landscaped gardens beyond. Invisible from the road, a secure gated entrance and long driveway leads to a large front forecourt and a detached triple garage, and a huge statement front door swings into a galleried reception hall with free form staircase and full height glass to the rear enjoying the views.

Formal and informal spaces are separated by the central hall, with all areas enjoying a glazed South Westerly aspect at the rear, allowing for wonderful light quality and warmth. The kitchen for instance is a vast space, fitted by Bulthaup with a large entertaining and lounge area with glass wall into the swimming pool. In all the house was designed to provide five bedroom suites, (including an independent suite at ground floor level) but was altered during construction to suit the owners personal requirements and now has a huge main suite taking up one end of the house providing dressing rooms, a stunning bathroom, and a lounge. Depending on a buyers needs, the house could easily be used differently.

In our view, contemporary houses, particularly those built and finished to this standard are very rare, and Sevendials is a truly wonderful example of this style of architecture, made all the more special by the space around it and the magnificent backdrop to the rear.
