Description

Appealing modern home.

Description

Designed by Michael Fowler Architects and built in 2011, this impressive house provides an appealing family home of modern style and character, traditional in appearance but with the benefits of a modern, recently built house. With generously proportioned and flexible accommodation 3541 sq ft arranged over three floors, it lends itself perfectly to family living and entertaining. The centrepiece is the welcoming open plan kitchen/breakfast/family room, perfect for entertaining and family gatherings, with the feeling of light and space enhanced by windows on two sides and doors opening to the gardens, and there are three further separate reception rooms. On the first floor are four en suite bedrooms, with three further bedrooms on the second floor, together with a shower room.

The ground floor has underfloor heating, with radiators on the upper floors, and electric underfloor heating in en suites and the bathroom. Heating is from an oil boiler housed in a separate boiler house. Water heating is provided by the oil boiler and also from a solar heating system. A mechanical ventilation system (Villavent) removes air from the kitchen and bathrooms, removes heat from the air as it is expelled, and transfers heat to fresh air taken in and distributed to other rooms. There is also an Electrolux central vacuum system serving all areas. A rainwater harvesting system provides water for toilets, washing machine and outside taps.

The driveway provides extensive parking, and the double garage, with additional boiler house and large useful loft, is housed in an insulated timber building. There are also three outbuildings to the front of the property. Two are open fronted, and the middle one has lockable sliding doors and can house mowing machines and garden equipment.
The formal gardens have been carefully landscaped with neatly tended lawns bordered by carefully placed terraces, a path, and well stocked borders with trees, plants and shrubs. A paved terrace, opening from the sitting and dining rooms, is ideal for alfresco dining, and a gate leads through to an attractive orchard area.
