5 bedroom detached house for sale

This beautifully constructed detached home was designed by renowned local architect Fallows Gowan and offers around 7000 sq ft of spacious and incredibly versatile accommodation. Unusually, the accommodation is arranged over two floors creating an almost unrivalled sense of lateral space that is ideal for those with growing families.

The ground floor rooms are arranged around a welcoming entrance hall with solid oak staircase. The ‘hub of the house’ is the magnificent open plan kitchen/living/dining room that has double doors opening on to the rear gardens. The kitchen itself has been recently re-designed and re-fitted and provides an extensive range of high quality and contemporary units with integrated Miele appliances. There are three additional reception rooms including a large 31’6 x 24’3 living room. There is also a utility room and cloaks/wc plus a triple garage with wine store, gardeners wc and additional storage room.

At first floor an impressive galleried landing gives access to the bedroom accommodation which, like the ground floor layout, has been designed with family life in mind. The master suite with dressing room and bathroom, is positioned to the rear of the property so enjoys pleasing views over the gardens below.

There are four further double bedrooms, all of which have their own en suite facilities. A second staircase that is accessed from the rear porch (between the garage and kitchen) leads to a superb self contained office. This space has a kitchenette and shower room and so could be used as a separate suite for an au pair or dependent relative.

The property occupies a large plot that extends to over half an acre and is approached by secure wrought iron electric gates. A sweeping driveway provides off road parking and turning space for a large number of vehicles and gives access to the triple garage.

The driveway is flanked by immaculately maintained lawns. To the rear of the property there is a paved patio that extends the full width of the house and is accessed directly from the living room and from the kitchen. The garden is predominantly laid to lawn and is fringed by well stocked borders behind which there are mature trees and hedging that provide a pleasing backdrop to the property and ensure an incredibly high level of privacy. A feature of note is the brick built barbecue kitchen that has been constructed adjacent to a second patio area. This is a fantastic facility for those who enjoy al fresco entertaining and the building also houses a wc and garden store.
