5 bed 3 bath Detached
Secluded five-bedroom house with versatile living above garage and low energy systems.
Chain free five-bedroom detached house with strong eco specification
Tucked at the end of a private, tree-lined lane, this substantial five-bedroom detached house combines contemporary design with strong eco credentials. Built recently and offered chain free, the home features triple‑glazed Ecohaus windows, MVHR, underfloor heating and 150mm cavity insulation for low running costs and year-round comfort. The layout includes generous open-plan living, a high, full-height entrance hall and a striking cantilevered staircase that creates an immediate sense of space.
Outdoors, the property sits within a very large plot with wraparound, established gardens, west-facing terrace and private driveway leading to an electric-doored double garage. Above the garage a heated, powered room with shower and WC provides versatile ancillary accommodation — ideal as a home office, studio, guest suite or potential income-producing space. Two mainline stations are within three miles, and local schools and shops are within walking distance, making this convenient for family life and commuting.
The house is tech-forward, with smart-home controls, CAT cabling, video security and fingerprint entry. Practical details include integrated kitchen appliances, a utility room, fitted wardrobes in some bedrooms and good storage throughout. EPC B reflects the efficient specification, and three bathrooms (including two ensuites) accommodate family and guests comfortably.
Notable considerations: broadband speeds are reported as slow in the area and mobile signal is average; the property sits in Council Tax Band G, so annual running costs for local taxation are high. Buyers should also verify any warranty or guarantees associated with the recent construction and smart systems. Overall, this home suits buyers seeking a high-spec, low-energy family house in a private, semi-rural setting with flexible living space.
