This striking architect-designed detached home delivers more than 4,250 sq ft across three floors, arranged around a dramatic double‑vaulted entrance and sculptural concrete staircase. The bespoke kitchen with Siemens appliances opens into a generous dining/family room and living spaces that take full advantage of floor-to-ceiling aluminium glazing and vaulted ceilings — ideal for large-family living, entertaining or working from home.
The principal suite reads like a private retreat with a spa-style bathroom, private balcony and space suitable for a walk-in wardrobe. Two further bedrooms on the first floor and two large bedrooms on the top floor enjoy en suites, private balconies and countryside views. Practical tech and comfort features include air conditioning in all bedrooms, MVHR, CAT6 cabling and CCTV, alongside a pre-wired cinema room and a useful utility/plant area.
Outdoor living is strong: multiple balconies and a private terrace sit within a large plot and landscaped setting, offering room for family play, alfresco dining and quiet enjoyment of the rural outlook. The property is offered chain free, with wide internal circulation and flexible reception spaces for contemporary family life.
Buyer notes and material considerations: the listing includes both “new build” and a construction date range of 1950–1966 in the records — this should be independently verified before purchase. Heating is oil‑fired with boiler and radiators; the walls are described as cavity construction with no installed insulation (assumed), which may mean additional energy/insulation work is needed. The immediate area is recorded as having high crime and wider area deprivation despite excellent mobile signal and fast broadband. All measurements, services, planning and structural matters must be checked by buyers prior to exchange.
