Description
Architecturally Designed Five-Bedroom Home with Stunning Views
Nestled down a private lane, this exceptional five-bedroom, architecturally designed detached home boasts upside-down accommodation with idyllic views. Custom-built in the early 1980s, this unique property spans over 3,300 sq ft and is set on a generous plot featuring a well-established rear garden.
As you approach via the expansive gravel driveway, you’ll be immediately captivated by the striking exterior, which blends render and pine paneling, inspired by Nordic design.
Inside, the welcoming entrance hall opens into a spacious lobby area. One half of this floor houses two bedrooms, a large family/play/TV room, and Bedroom 5/Reception Room/Hobby Room, complete with its own door leading to a garden patio. This floor is also home to a family bathroom with underfloor heating and a sauna. The other part of this level features another bedroom, a large pantry/store, and a utility room with spaces for an under-counter fridge and oven. The garage has been thoughtfully converted into a well-equipped workshop but could readily be reverted to a garage if desired.
Upstairs, an open staircase leads to a stunning living, dining, and family room with a central open fireplace, magnificent windows, a vaulted ceiling, and views of the garden and lake beyond. Sliding doors open out to a generously sized balcony with seating and an electric awning. Adjacent to the living room is a private home office/study, perfect for working from home.
The kitchen/breakfast room is equipped with wooden cabinetry, a Quooker tap, an induction hob, and a Hotpoint oven and microwave. The extended countertop provides ample prep space, and there’s a cozy booth seating area for informal dining, ideal for family meals. Adjacent to the kitchen is a spacious laundry room, which could also serve as Bedroom 5 or a second study. This room leads to another room that houses the hot water tank, with an accumulator tank that maintains high water pressure for the three bathrooms.
The main bedroom, also on the first floor, features built-in wardrobes and an en-suite bathroom with underfloor heating. Sliding doors from the bedroom open onto the balcony, offering a peaceful retreat with scenic views.
Outside, the driveway offers ample parking at the front, while a side pathway leads to the good-sized rear garden. The garden is primarily laid to lawn, adorned with a variety of trees, flowers, and shrubs, creating an interesting space. A large patio area provides the perfect setting for al fresco dining and social gatherings. The garden is enclosed with timber panel fencing, badger fencing, and hedging.
Agent's Note:
Due to the construction of a new dwelling, the driveway will be newly landscaped before completion.
