Built in 2021 and set within about 7.7 acres, Great Thorndean Farm Gables is a striking contemporary country home with black weatherboard elevations and two soaring glazed gables. The house offers generous light-filled rooms across 2,650 sq ft, vaulted ceilings, exposed timbers and high-quality finishes including Lusso Stone bathrooms and oak internal doors.
The ground floor features an expansive open-plan kitchen/dining area with full-height sliding doors to a south-facing terrace, a triple-aspect sitting room with a Morso woodburner, two ground-floor bedrooms and utility facilities. The first floor houses two impressive bedroom suites with vaulted ceilings, balconies and substantial glazing into the gable ends.
Energy-efficient features include a ground-source heat pump, underfloor heating, FTTP broadband and the remainder of a Renewable Heat Incentive payment. The property is approached via a gated bonded-gravel driveway and includes a large garden, stone terrace, paddock and mature boundary trees — attractive for anyone seeking space, privacy and rural living.
Notable legal and practical matters are stated plainly: a planning refusal (and dismissed appeal) for a detached triple garage, a remainder of an overage agreement on the land, private sewage treatment, and a pre-existing cladding system that purchasers should enquire about. Council tax sits at band G and outgoings are relatively high. Viewings are by appointment only and access is via a private farm lane with a right of way.
