5 bedroom detached house for sale

Main house - The Fox
A professionally designed and attentive enhancement of the property by the current owners, has seen the creation of a truly inspiring family home, which is complemented by an equally stylish detached annexe, The Vixen.

The house and annexe exude craftsmanship and architectural quality in considerable measure and it is evident that this is a property set apart from the norm. With aesthetic timber cladding, partnering painted elevations, The Fox offers a living environment that is filled with natural light and a layout that is ideally suited to both entertaining and to modern lifestyles. The many features of the property include zoned under-floor heating to all tiled areas, USB ports in all bedrooms, Lusso kitchen and bathroom fittings (except for pantry and utility room), wall-hung sanitary ware.

The contemporary interior is a blend of elegance and style and of particular note is the sensational open-plan kitchen/dining/sitting room that is the sociable heart of the home, with a dramatic part-vaulted ceiling and a step-level change to the sitting area where there is the warming ambience of a bio ethanol fireplace; six lofty windows enhance the sense of light and space and offer a visual connection with the garden.

The Häcker kitchen, fitted with sleek cabinetry, quartz work surfaces, a Lusso filtered/hot water tap, and various appliances, boasts a large island unit (120 cm x 300cm) with an integral breakfast bar that forms a subtle delineation to the dining area. Ancillary space is provided by a pantry (complete with a second dishwasher), a linen room and a utility/laundry room. A separate snug, with an open fireplace, provides a quiet retreat whilst on the first floor, there is a versatile bonus room, a study area and useful walk-in eaves storage.
The accommodation is configured to provide four beautifully presented en suite bedrooms, including the sumptuous principal suite comprising a light and airy bedroom with bi-folding doors opening out to the garden, an en suite powder room, a cleverly planned dressing area and en suite shower room.

Detached annexe - The Vixen
Supplementary accommodation is provided by the charmingly named, The Vixen, annexe which provides a perfect arrangement for extended families, offering a superb opportunity for intergenerational living. With its well-appointed, flexible accommodation, various options for use are on offer, with the current presentation including a fabulous studio/work from home setting with a wall of bi-folding doors to the outside. It is worth noting that the studio was formerly a garage and this could easily be reinstated if wished.

In addition to the studio, there is a striking kitchen/breakfast room with a vaulted ceiling and space for dining where bi-fold doors ‘bring the outside in’. The kitchen area features an industrial-style floor, a large breakfast bar (120cm deep) with storage below and topped by a quartz worktop, and integrated appliances.

Two additional rooms and a shower room complete the annexe accommodation. There is also under-floor heating throughout, and two useful attics for storage.

Evergreen hedging screens the house from the road, creating a sense of seclusion, with access onto a block-paved driveway at the front of the house. An adjoining gravelled area extends to the annexe and provides additional parking for numerous vehicles. The house sits within a sizeable plot with established areas of lawn, paved terraces, and clipped conifers and mature shrubs at the far boundary providing privacy. Timber-edged raised planters provide pockets for decorative planting and there is ample space for children’s play.
