A charming front porchway provides a welcoming entrance to the house. Originally an old farmhouse, the property was comprehensively rebuilt, remodelled and upgraded approximately 19 years ago, with significant further improvements undertaken more recently. The result is a highly distinctive country home that successfully combines period character with contemporary design, exceptional craftsmanship and high-quality finishes. The attention to detail throughout is exceptional. Extensive areas of glazing bring natural light deep into the accommodation, while varying ceiling heights, exposed beams, architectural angles and carefully considered design details create a wonderful sense of space. To the front of the house are elegant formal living and dining rooms, while to the rear is the principal family living space, comprising a superb kitchen, breakfast and living area which forms the heart of the home. This impressive room features a large pitched ceiling with exposed beams and an expansive picture window framing spectacular views towards the Great Sugarloaf. Direct access leads onto a large terrace, which connects through to the formal reception areas at the front of the house, creating an excellent flow for both family living and entertaining. The kitchen is fitted with a new bespoke Christoff kitchen in 2017 which centred around a substantial island and complemented by excellent storage and workspace. The combination of bespoke cabinetry, extensive glazing, exposed beams, generous proportions and the exceptional outlook makes this one of the home's most impressive spaces. On the upper level is the principal bedroom suite, complete with an ensuite bathroom. A second bedroom on this level is currently utilised as an expansive walk-in wardrobe, although it could easily be returned to bedroom accommodation. At garden level are two further bedrooms, one of which benefits from an ensuite bathroom, while the second bedroom has direct access to a large family bathroom. All rooms at this level enjoy direct access to the gardens through patio doors, creating a wonderful connection between the interior and the surrounding grounds. Also at this level is a huge and highly versatile entertaining room. This substantial space offers enormous flexibility and could be used as a home office, games room, playroom, gym, cinema or additional family living area, depending on the requirements of the new owners. The accommodation is completed by a large WC and separate utility room, providing excellent practical facilities for everyday family life. Externally, the house is framed by carefully curated flower beds, mature trees and three immaculate lawns, each maintained by its own robotic lawnmower. The beautifully landscaped gardens also feature a selection of established fruit trees, including apple, cherry and pear, together with mature planting and colourful foliage. Exceptionally well maintained throughout, the grounds provide a wonderful sense of privacy and seclusion. The equestrian facilities are equally impressive. Within the substantial yard are six stables, comprising two mare and foal stables and four standard stables, together with a range of versatile ancillary outbuildings. These provide excellent facilities for equestrian use, storage, workshops and a variety of other potential purposes. A particularly notable feature is the magnificent stone-cut outbuilding, measuring approximately 22 metres by 5.1 metres. This substantial building possesses tremendous character and scale and offers exciting potential for its next chapter. Subject to the necessary planning permissions, it could potentially be adapted for additional accommodation or a wide range of alternative uses. The property also benefits from a secondary farm entrance providing convenient access to the rear lands. Together with the extensive yard, stabling, outbuildings and approximately 10.5 acres of grounds, this creates an exceptionally well-serviced and versatile holding with considerable scope for equestrian, agricultural, recreational or general land management purposes.
