The house tour starts in a bright and welcoming entrance hallway where a statement staircase, crafted with stainless steel, Jatoba solid cherry timber threads and glass panelling creates an unforgettable first impression. Natural light abounds, bouncing off the rich timber flooring that flows seamlessly into the elegant reception room. This spacious haven has two box bay windows and a striking cast iron fireplace complete with a multi-fuel stove.
Further on, the heart of the home is the open plan kitchen, dining and family room. Perfect for entertaining, the space connects effortlessly to the back garden through French doors. Here, bespoke hand-crafted kitchen cabinetry by Be Space is paired with lavish quartz countertops and splashbacks, offering both beauty and functionality for the keen cook.
On the lower ground floor, flexibility is key. A second large living space is joined by a playroom with lots of storage, a private home office, a full bathroom and a spacious utility room – all are finished with the same attention to detail seen throughout the home.
Whether it’s for working from home, older relatives or simply extra space for growing children, this level adapts easily.

A bright family bathroom is shared by the remaining bedrooms.
Outside, the landscaped back garden is a private oasis, complete with Castle Stone paving ideal for outdoor dining and summer soirées. A thoughtfully designed raised flower bed adds colour, while a tranquil water feature provides a soothing focal point. The clever inclusion of a Perspex-roofed side passage offers excellent storage for bikes or garden equipment, all while maintaining the home’s streamlined look.
To the front, ample off-street parking and lush planting add to the home’s appeal, blending function and beauty in equal measure.
