Offering a unique, architect-designed, and award-winning home in a sought-after position, this 3-4 bedroom detached house can be found near the southern edge of the city, within walking distance of St Bartholomew’s Primary and Manor Park. The property is very convenient for the A449, yet glorious open countryside is close at hand. Architect-designed by the current owners as their own much-loved family residence, this inventive contemporary eco-home is exceptionally environmentally friendly, built to Passive House standards with ultra-low heating bills thanks to an airtight design. Triple-glazed and having a mechanical ventilation system with heat recovery (MVHR), underfloor heating to the living spaces, filtered air, and super insulation made from natural materials, the house remains at a stable temperature in all seasons. The property exudes a simple elegance all its own and is deceptively spacious, sitting upon a generous L-shaped plot with extensive outdoor space to the rear. Inside, bespoke plywood fittings are combined with ingenious 3D printed elements and striking decorative touches including a beautiful internal feature wall with cedar shingles, allowing the carefully considered light design to take centre stage. Most windows are south facing, providing solar heat gain and incredible natural light.

The versatile and stylish accommodation includes a welcoming, double-height entrance hall with galleried landing above, leading onto a long corridor where concealed storage neatly hides away all domestic clutter and the utility controls. Offering a 20ft view (approx.) along almost the entire length of the house and garden beyond, the hallway opens up into a large, open-plan dining kitchen, fitted with tactile plywood units and integrated appliances. The impressive lounge is located off, creating one vast living space ideal for busy modern families, with patio doors to the rear. Above the kitchen and lounge, along the south-facing wall, a full-length gallery stretches from a fitted desk at one end to a private study and storeroom at the other, providing a discreet yet connected working space at the heart of the home. An additional snug is located beside the kitchen, a versatile room perfect as a fourth bedroom, office, or a comfortable sitting room. A useful utility is available off the hallway, and the ground-floor master bedroom can be found to the front, creating a degree of separation between the living areas and this quiet, restful space. A double-hinged door allows the bedroom and the adjacent bathroom to be closed off entirely, forming a luxurious en suite if desired, while a fitted dressing area runs along the width of the bedroom, elegantly concealed by a partial wall. Above the hall, the wrap-around staircase ascends to the galleried landing, where the contemporary first-floor bathroom serves two identical bedrooms, both having considerable fitted storage and a versatile split-level design, with a private mezzanine area above each room. Within the capacious plot, the property includes more than ample driveway parking and a recently upgraded 7kw EV charger. To the rear, the incredible gardens provide several distinct, thoughtfully designed areas for quiet relaxation, entertaining, and growing, beautifully planted and backing onto the tranquil greenery of Penn Hospital grounds. A peaceful pond with water feature sits beside raised beds and a substantial detached garden building, currently offering two spaces with a stud wall division, easily removed to create one large room. With a sheltered porch, wi-fi, and electric heating, the space is ideal for home business or leisure use, offering plenty of room for a gym, multi-person office, or studio.
