4 bedroom detached house

Do you want to live in a home that makes your heart skip a beat? And that fills you with peace and tranquillity? This imposing 4 bed detached home could be for you. Starting life as agricultural workshops this home was designed and built by the current owners, blending traditional and modern, finished to a superb standard, its layout versatile, it won’t fail to impress. 

Situated in the small hamlet of Woodhouses near Yoxall, this magnificent property is tucked just off the B5016 and is totally private with an immaculate hedging and fencing perimeter. The location provides the vibrant community feel with school catchments, local amenities and for those commuters the A38 and A50 is nearby too.

Drive through the double electric gates and up the driveway to a double garage with a storage loft above. There is plenty of room available for a multi-vehicle family and enough left for visitors. The lawned areas provide a pleasant entrance and outlook. 

Entering the house through the church-like Lychgate style porch, you immediately notice the standard of workmanship is extremely high. The exposed beams and doors are all solid oak. Both staircases are French stone, imported and hand-carved here, as is the inglenook surround. The atrium is German-made. There really are too many features to mention in one property specification! 

Starting to the left of the front door, one of the two lounges is at the far end. A large, light room with a window to the front and patio doors to the rear, with a glorious inglenook fireplace as the focal point and double doors leading into the dining room. 

The formal dining room is next door and is roomy enough for a table to seat ten, plus other furniture. A special feature in this room is the light cabinet, which started life as a receptionist hatch!  

A guest cloakroom sits between the dining room and kitchen. 

The kitchen is the next room along the hallway, and this is a stunning yet practical room. Set with solid wood, hand-made base and wall units finished with granite worksurfaces, they house a 4-oven Aga and an American-style fridge. A huge island provides vast space for food preparation and has an integrated electric oven, grill and microwave, gas hob and chef sink. The kitchen also offers an integrated dishwasher, and hidden bins. The breakfast area overlooking the garden has space for a table and chairs and even armchairs which makes this room an amazing place for socialising. You can almost see children doing homework at the table or hear the chatter of friends gathered for drinks.

The utility room continues with the same units and houses a fridge, washing machine and tumble dryer. The control for the internal sound system is found here too. There is a door to the rear, enabling ease for hanging out the family washing.

The glass atrium links the two buildings and provides another living space and is currently set up with a dining table and conservatory furniture. There is the opportunity to open the atrium and kitchen to make a more open-plan layout should you wish.  The open bridge linking the upstairs of the two buildings can be seen from below.

Beyond the atrium is a second hallway and optional separate entrance with its own Oak front door and cloakroom as well as an additional french stone staircase leading to the bridge and master bedroom. 

The second lounge overlooking the rear garden and with patio doors. It's another large room, yet you can readily imagine cosy evenings with the family with the log burner lit and the opportunity to close off or open up to the family room. 

The family room completes the ground floor. What an amazing space this is with a variety of uses. Currently used for multi purposes, combining office and games. It has a bar with wine and beer fridges. This Oak framed building is a great space for entertaining.

Taking the grand stone staircase to the first floor off the main hallway you find yourself on a wide landing with access to three large double bedrooms, built into the eaves with oak beams and each with an en suite. Each ensuite continues the neutral theme to mirror the bedrooms and all three have showers, the middle bedroom en-suite with an additional bath.

The master suite is across the atrium bridge in the oak framed building. What a room this is - It’s huge and given there’s an attached dressing room, the choices of how to use and arrange this room seem endless. The apex is all windows with bifold shutters that fully open to reveal the most beautiful panoramic view. We challenge anyone to not be late for something at least once (each week!) because they couldn’t tear themselves from the view. The walk-in dressing room has wardrobes on both sides and leads to the master en-suite bathroom. This room is ready plumbed for a bath, shower, sink and wc, but unfinished, meaning there is an opportunity for the new owner to create a room to their unique design. 

The large rear garden has a patio the width of the house offering lots of room for seating, relaxation, and entertainment areas. A border with low shrubs sits between the patio and the vast level lawn completes the remainder of the garden. This is a relatively low-maintenance garden that has its distinct beauty in a peaceful green landscape when viewed from the house. There is plenty of scope should a keen gardener wish to design and landscape and still have a lawn abundant enough for family activities. 

This house has so much to offer a family and the downstairs rooms could be used in so many ways as there is no lack of space. It has been a long labour of love for the current owners to create this beautiful home and certainly a little piece of their hearts will be left when they leave and it is sure to steal yours!

The Council Tax band is F, and the EPC current rating is C. We have been advised that the property is Freehold.
