Exceptional private plot with extensive entertaining space for large families and hosts.
Five bedrooms, three with en suites, master with dressing room and balcony
A rare gated five-bedroom detached home set on an exceptionally large, largely private plot with a private lake and extensive outdoor entertaining areas. The house delivers generous, well-presented living space across two storeys: multiple reception rooms, a high-spec open-plan kitchen with island, a cinema room and a dedicated home office. Three bedrooms have en suites and the principal suite includes a dressing room and private balcony overlooking the grounds.
Externally the plot is the principal draw — landscaped gardens, decking to the water’s edge, outdoor kitchen, bar, play area, firepit and two storage sheds. Secure electric gates, a wide brick-paved forecourt and a garage/carport provide significant parking and privacy. Broadband and mobile signals are reported as strong, and the local area is described as very affluent with good primary schools nearby.
Buyers should note some practical points: the property dates from the 1950s–60s and external cavity walls are assumed to have no added insulation. Council tax is high (expensive band) and the upkeep of an acre plot and lake will require regular maintenance and associated costs. Full internal inspection, energy performance details and flood-insurance implications should be confirmed.
Overall this is a high‑impact family home aimed at purchasers seeking space, privacy and year‑round entertaining potential — buyers wanting a low‑maintenance suburban property would need to factor in garden and lake upkeep and likely retrofit insulation or energy upgrades over time.
