This exceptional contemporary country house blends Classical English architecture with modern design, creating the perfect package for today's family. Home Farmhouse, paired with the newly renovated Birkin Lodge, offers extensive, versatile, and glamorous living spaces, ideal for both intimate family gatherings and large-scale entertaining. Extensive outbuildings and stables provide opportunities for business ventures or additional accommodation, making it ideal for multi-generational living. This remarkable property is ready for immediate occupancy.

As expected of a property of this calibre, bespoke fittings and exceptional craftsmanship are evident throughout. Highlights include stunning, full-height, multi-paned timber sash windows, elegant cornicing, grand fireplaces, panelled doors, and porcelain floor tiles with underfloor heating. The entrance is marked by a grand portico that opens into the reception hall, featuring a magnificent Hollywood-style split staircase with an ornate balustrade.

Double doors lead to the impressive 36ft drawing room, which boasts an imposing stone fireplace with an open fire and wrought-iron club fender seating. This triple-aspect room is flooded with natural light from tall sash windows and bi-fold doors that open west to the garden terrace, offering long views across the grounds. At the heart of the home is a stunning open-plan family space spanning nearly 50 ft, encompassing the kitchen/breakfast room, garden room, and dining room, with French and bi-fold doors leading to a south and west-facing terrace. The dining room features a roof lantern and full-height glazing on three sides, while the sitting area/family room includes a contemporary wall-mounted Stovax wood-burning stove.

The bespoke kitchen is equipped with top-of-the-line Miele appliances and Dekton Orix worktops, complemented by soft-close, handleless units, an island with breakfast bar, hot water tap, induction hob with downdraft extractor, and two wine coolers. Adjacent domestic offices provide practical family and utility space. A superb study with tall windows overlooks the sweeping driveway.

Upstairs, the long galleried landing leads to the impressive principal bedroom suite, which spans the width of the house and features fitted wardrobes and west-facing sash windows offering views of the garden and grounds. The substantial en-suite bathroom is bathed in natural light from tall multi-paned windows and includes a mirrored radiator, ceiling speakers, floating double vanity unit, bathtub with wall-mounted TV, and a walk-in rainfall shower with a handheld shower head. There are two additional bedroom suites with en-suite shower rooms and another large bedroom. The family bathroom is fully tiled and features a floating double vanity unit, a television concealed within a mirror, and ceiling speakers. All bedrooms are fitted with bespoke wardrobes, and all bathrooms are luxuriously appointed.

This outstanding property, set in 4.5 acres, offers an unparalleled blend of luxury, comfort, and style.
