5 bedroom detached house for sale

Set within approximately 0.7 acres of beautifully landscaped, wrap-around grounds, this impressive four-bedroom family home offers exceptional space, privacy and versatility, complemented by a high-specification detached annexe and an oversized double garage. From the moment you arrive, the property makes a striking impression, approached via bespoke electronically operated double gates opening onto an expansive block-paved forecourt with illuminated turning circle and secure parking for numerous vehicles. A second gated driveway from Barrack Lane provides additional parking and independent access to the annexe, ideal for flexible living arrangements.

The main residence opens into a welcoming entrance hall, finished with hardwood flooring, underfloor heating and a feature staircase with glazed balustrade, setting the tone for the quality found throughout. The ground floor offers generous and well-balanced accommodation, including four reception rooms designed to maximise natural light and the home’s southerly aspect. These include an elegant sitting room with contemporary feature fireplace, a formal dining room, a snug with French doors opening onto the garden, and an impressive dual-aspect living/media room with direct access to the garage.

At the heart of the home lies a bespoke kitchen/breakfast room, thoughtfully designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Solid wood cabinetry, natural stone worktops and a comprehensive range of integrated appliances are complemented by a substantial breakfast bar and display units. From here, the home flows seamlessly into a stunning pitched-roof conservatory, flooded with light and opening onto the rear gardens via multiple sets of French doors. Practical spaces include a utility room, boiler room and side lobby with garden access, all discreetly positioned to support modern family life.

The first floor continues to impress, with four spacious double bedrooms arranged around a bright central landing. The principal suite enjoys garden views and a luxurious spa-style en-suite featuring a jacuzzi bath, steam shower, twin basins and underfloor heating. A second en-suite bedroom, two further doubles — one with glimpses towards the sea — and a contemporary family shower room complete the accommodation.

Positioned discreetly to the rear and finished to an excellent specification, the detached one-bedroom annexe is a standout feature of this property and offers exceptional flexibility. With its own private entrance and independent services, the annexe is ideal for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, rental income or home working. Internally, the space is flooded with natural light, enhanced by vaulted ceilings reaching approximately 12’8”, skylights and feature glazing. The open-plan kitchen/living area is both stylish and practical, opening directly onto the garden via French doors, while the generous double bedroom also enjoys its own garden access. A contemporary shower room completes the accommodation, making this a truly self-contained and highly desirable addition to the property.

Externally, the grounds are a true highlight, combining formal landscaping with a charming wild garden, complete with winding pathways and a variety of seating areas. Additional features include an insulated summer house, covered timber gazebo for alfresco dining and of particular note is the thoughtfully designed external lighting, allowing the gardens to be enjoyed throughout the day and into the evening.
