About This Property

Beyond its striking exterior, the house unfolds into a series of impressive spaces defined by soaring ceilings, exposed green oak timbers and extensive glazing that draws the surrounding landscape into every room. At its heart lies a spectacular open-plan living area where cooking, dining and relaxation coexist effortlessly beneath a vaulted framework. Designed for both family life and entertaining, the space is centred around a statement double-sided fireplace, while wide glazed openings create a seamless connection to the terraces and gardens beyond. Throughout the house, a Lutron lighting system has also been installed to control both the interior and exterior lights.

The bespoke kitchen is beautifully appointed with elegant cabinetry, premium integrated appliances and generous preparation space. Positioned to overlook the gardens, it flows naturally into the dining and sitting areas, all enjoying wonderful views across the grounds. Additional accommodation includes a stylish family room, dedicated home office and cloakroom.

A sculptural curved staircase rises to a galleried landing overlooking the living space below. The principal suite provides a luxurious retreat, featuring a vaulted ceiling, bespoke fitted wardrobes and a spa-inspired en suite with freestanding bath, walk-in shower and twin vanity units.

Three further double bedrooms offer fitted storage and excellent natural light, with one benefiting from an en suite shower room, while a beautifully appointed family bathroom serves the remaining accommodation.

Separate from the main residence, a charming self-contained cottage, which has been fully refurbished and redecorated throughout, provides flexible ancillary accommodation. Beautifully presented, it comprises a welcoming sitting room with wood-burning stove, fitted kitchen, study, cloakroom, two first-floor bedrooms and a shower room.

The gardens, designed by renowned landscape architect Anthony Paul, have been thoughtfully created to complement both the architecture and surrounding countryside.

A beautifully planted water garden creates a striking focal point, enhancing the sense of peace and privacy that defines the setting, with further attention to detail such as a green roof on the machine/pump room.
