7 bedroom detached house for sale

Combining classic symmetry with modern practicality, Woodside House is a striking seven-bedroom detached residence built in 2008 in the style of the Georgian period. Set within a gated plot approaching three-quarters of an acre, the property offers generous and well-planned accommodation along with garaging and an outbuilding spread over approx. 6700 sq ft.

The reception hallway makes an immediate impression, with a bespoke stone bifurcated staircase rising to a galleried landing beneath a domed glazed cupola. From here, the ground floor flows naturally to a series of reception rooms including a sitting room, dining room, family room, study/home office, and a half-moon garden room with wide views across the landscaped rear gardens. The bespoke Shaker-style kitchen with granite surfaces and central island connects seamlessly to the dining area, while a utility and cloakroom complete the ground floor.

The first floor provides four double bedrooms, including an impressive principal suite with dressing room, walk-in wardrobe, and substantial six-piece en-suite bathroom. A large family bathroom of similar proportions serves the additional bedrooms, with bedroom two also benefitting from its own en suite.

On the second floor, a wide landing provides a study area, leading to three further bedrooms. A notable feature is the circular bathroom, cleverly arranged around the glazed atrium, which adds both character and light to the upper floor.

Externally, the property is approached through electric wrought iron gates, opening to a sweeping carriage driveway with central lawn and extensive parking. A triple garage with adjoining studio offers versatile potential, while the landscaped gardens are predominantly laid to lawn with sandstone terraces, a garden store, and a domed garden temple.
