Ergonomically designed to create four zones with a seamless flow, this is the perfect space for large families to congregate for day to day life, and when hosting parties. The bespoke fitted kitchen overlooks a generous dining area with an expanse of trifold doors to rear overlooking the gardens and river beyond. This amazing space leaves a lasting impression, as will the view from the terrace.





An inner hall and secondary entrance provides access to a useful office serving as an ideal space for home working or hobbies, and a further hall provides access to a WC, shower room, utility room and the pool complex. This truly remarkable space has been constructed to provide a vast leisure suite, flooded with natural light with a generous heated pool, raised hot tub and ample space around for seating.

In all, the accommodation extends to approximately 7,403 sqft to include pool complex and garaging.

Externally, the property sits well within its mature plot, that in all extends to approximately 2 acres.
