General Description
A testament to outstanding modern design, Easter Glasslie House boasting uninterrupted countryside views is an exceptional and rarely available contemporary home set against a stunning backdrop. Approached via a gated sweeping driveway, this striking property immediately captivates with its glass-fronted exterior and materials thoughtfully chosen to blend effortlessly with the surrounding natural landscape. Through full-glazed doors, the welcoming entrance vestibule leads into a bright and airy hallway. At the heart of the home lies a spectacular dining kitchen, designed to maximise its south-facing views over the garden and open countryside. Perfectly suited for family life, entertaining, and relaxation, wall-to-wall bi-fold doors create a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living whilst the sleek contemporary kitchen features gloss white handleless wall units, complemented by base units and a striking red acrylic worktop atop a generous island. A full suite of high-spec integrated Siemens appliances includes a hob, eye-level oven, grill, warming drawer, and coffee machine. The dining kitchen is flanked by two versatile living spaces. The first is a magnificent living room that boasts floor-to-ceiling glazing not only ensuring an abundance of natural light but providing breathtaking views. Designed to blend with the exterior, the stylish and rustic interior design includes handsome wooden flooring and a log-burning stove. Overlooked by a mezzanine level it is a room that exudes openness yet also manages to achieve a warm and inviting ambience. On the other side of the kitchen, the second living space serves as a cosy and peaceful dual-aspect sitting room with far-reaching views or can function as an additional double bedroom depending on individual needs. The north wing of the ground floor includes a west-facing double bedroom with a chic en-suite shower room, as well as a second contemporary shower room. A practical utility room with external access completes the ground floor layout. Ascending to the first floor, and a stunning principal double bedroom awaits enjoying a south and east-facing aspect. This luxurious retreat boasts built-in under-base-lit wardrobes and a spa-like en-suite bathroom, complete with a sauna, an oval free-standing bath, a hidden cistern WC, a rainfall shower enclosure, and a washbasin set in a wall-hung vanity. Two additional bright and spacious double bedrooms, each with built-in wardrobes, share access to a stylish and generously proportioned shower room. Overlooking the living room below, a mezzanine office space with bespoke shelving and a media unit offers a light-filled area large enough for two workstations.
