Description

An exquisite luxury residence offering impressive leisure, technology, and security, ideally located in the highly sought-after area of Bowdon.

Finished to the highest standard and meticulously maintained, the property seamlessly blends imposing contemporary architecture with a premium designer interior. Standout features include a ground-floor swimming pool and a turntable showcase supercar garage.

Set back from the main road, the property is secured behind electric gates, with a multi-car driveway and landscaped front gardens. The ground floor opens into an opulent entrance hallway with a double-height, glass-fronted dining area overlooking the rear garden. The T-shaped layout links the various reception rooms on this level, including a formal living room, study, drinks area, and a cinema room with a Sony 4K projector. Impeccable interior and garden design is provided by Uber and Barnes Walker respectively.

A particular highlight is the open-plan kitchen, living, and dining area. Featuring SieMatic, Miele, and Gaggenau appliances, an oversized island, a lounge area, and dual-aspect bi-fold doors opening onto the rear terrace, it offers a superb space for living and entertaining, extending seamlessly outdoors in the warmer months. The leisure suite, also on the ground floor, is wonderfully bright, thanks to a pitched roof with skylights and two walls of glazing that overlook the garden. It includes a 38 ft infinity pool and steam room, plus sliding doors that open onto the central garden patio and lawn. A key design feature of the property is the seamless connection between the rear living spaces and the outdoors. The kitchen, dining hall, and swimming pool all open onto the garden from different sides, creating an exceptional indoor/outdoor living and leisure area, perfect for entertaining.

Upstairs, seven generous and beautifully presented bedrooms are spread across the first and second floors, each with linked bath or shower rooms featuring Hansgrohe and Villeroy & Boch sanitaryware. The master bedroom is particularly impressive, spanning 25 ft and featuring a hidden, fully-fitted dressing room and a luxurious en suite with a separate shower, standalone bath, and twin vanity. Bedroom seven, located on the second floor, can function as a self-contained studio apartment with a kitchenette and dressing room, making it ideal for staff accommodation. Additionally, a gym overlooks the swimming pool and has access to a roof terrace.

The lower ground floor is a true highlight. A panelled corridor with mood lighting leads to an elegant lounge area with a bar, games room, and wine cellar, all centred around a spectacular supercar turntable. Glazed windows and feature lighting spotlight the chosen vehicle, making it a remarkable feature of the home. There is also an additional 43 x 12 ft of underground garaging, with space for numerous vehicles and secure ramp access to the driveway.

Externally, the rear garden is both attractive and private, featuring a built-in fire pit, expansive lawn areas, and mature shrubs and borders.

The technology in the home is aligned with its exceptional quality, incorporating Crestron Home Automation and Lutron lighting. The security system is equally impressive, with extensive CCTV coverage and enhanced alarm features.
