4 bedroom detached house for sale

A beautifully presented and superbly positioned detached family home, enjoying a rare combination of privacy, outlook, and lifestyle — with open countryside to the front and mature woodland wrapping the side, creating a wonderfully tucked-away, almost rural feel.

This is a home that immediately stands out — not just for its setting, but for the quality of presentation throughout. Light-filled, calm, and thoughtfully styled, it’s a property that feels effortlessly ready to move into.

The Living Space

The accommodation has been designed with both family life and entertaining in mind.

A spacious entrance hall sets the tone, leading through to a beautifully proportioned dual-aspect sitting room, where a large bay window with bespoke shutters frames the front aspect, while French doors open directly onto the garden — creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow.

Across the hall, a separate dining room mirrors this sense of light and balance, again dual-aspect with elegant bay windows — ideal for more formal entertaining or flexible family use.

At the heart of the home is the stunning kitchen/breakfast room — a real standout space. Finished in a timeless shaker style with granite worktops and integrated Bosch appliances, it’s centred around an impressive island with seating. Pendant lighting and French doors opening onto the garden elevate this into a true social hub — equally suited to busy mornings or relaxed evenings with friends.

A separate utility room keeps everything practical and tucked away.

Bedrooms & Bathrooms

Upstairs, the sense of space continues with a galleried landing and four well-proportioned bedrooms.

A principal suite with en-suite bathroom
A second bedroom with its own en-suite
Two further generous double bedrooms
A modern family bathroom
Each room benefits from bespoke shutters, enhancing both style and privacy.

Gardens & Setting

The outside space is where this home truly comes into its own.

The walled rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to create distinct zones — a paved terrace for dining, a lawned area, and a raised deck perfect for relaxing. It feels private, enclosed, and wonderfully peaceful.

Crucially, the property sides onto attractive woodland, giving a rare sense of seclusion and a connection to nature — while to the front, it enjoys far-reaching views across open fields, something increasingly hard to find on modern developments.
