5 bedroom detached house for sale

Discreetly positioned at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac, this substantial detached home immediately conveys a sense of presence, privacy and quality. Set back from the road and discreetly hidden, this fashionable home occupies one of the most private positions within the highly regarded Earlsmead development, a small and exclusive enclave of just 100 homes, where opportunities to buy are genuinely rare.

The outlook is particularly appealing, the moment you approach this property, the sense of seclusion, while still remaining within comfortable walking distance of local schools, extensive green space and parkland makes this property a rare find. It is a setting that feels both sheltered and connected, something increasingly difficult to find in modern developments.

The accommodation opens into a bright and welcoming entrance hallway, setting the tone for the scale and presentation that follows. Internal access leads directly through to the garage, currently arranged as a home gym, though offering clear potential for conversion to additional living space if required, subject to the necessary consents. Throughout the house, the feeling of newness remains strong, complemented by excellent levels of finish and meticulous care.

At the heart of the home lies a truly impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and family room extending to over 35 ft in length. Designed with modern living and entertaining in mind, this is a standout space that combines scale with practicality. Two sets of double doors open directly onto the rear garden, creating a seamless connection between inside and out, while a further window floods the room with natural light. The kitchen is well equipped with quality integrated appliances and is supported by a separate utility room, ensuring day-to-day functionality sits comfortably alongside the home’s sociable layout.

The sitting room provides a more formal yet generous retreat, offering excellent proportions and flexibility, and completing a well-balanced and highly usable ground floor.

Upstairs, a spacious and open reception landing enhances the sense of volume and flow. The principal bedroom suite is particularly impressive, enjoying air conditioning along with a well-appointed en suite featuring both a bath and a separate shower. A second bedroom also benefits from its own en-suite, while three further bedrooms and a family bathroom are all accessed from the landing, creating a practical and thoughtfully arranged first floor, well suited to family life.

Outside, the rear garden has been professionally landscaped and extends across the full width of the property, offering a private and attractive outdoor environment. A generous full-length patio spans the rear elevation, ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining, while the lawn beyond is framed by established greenery, reinforcing the home’s secluded feel. Young fruit trees have been planted, adding character now and privacy for the years ahead.

A double-width driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to the double garage, further reinforcing the home’s sense of scale and practicality.

Of particular note is the home’s forward-thinking approach to energy efficiency. Solar panels have been installed on the southern aspect, paired with a substantial 13.5 kWh battery storage system. A new EPC assessment is currently being undertaken, and given the scale of the renewable installation, the property is expected to achieve an A-rated EPC, an increasingly rare and highly desirable attribute.

Combining presence, privacy and performance, this is a home that offers a rare blend of scale, sustainability and setting discreetly positioned, beautifully presented, and forming part of one of the area’s most limited modern developments.
