Property Description
A large contemporary new house in stunning south-facing gardens of just under an acre, situated on the town’s best road, beautifully designed and completely refurbished throughout, boasting an exceptional 8,300 sq ft of accommodation including a superb indoor swimming pool complex.
The house was constructed in 2015 and acquired by the current owners around 4 years ago. They embarked on a comprehensive refurbishment and remodelling programme, which has been completed to the highest specification.
A double height glass fronted reception hall with free-form staircase forms a stunning entry point to the house and gives access to each of the ground floors five reception rooms and a ground floor cloakroom and WC. The kitchen/family area, dining room and formal lounge all interlink, but still can retain a sense of separation if required, the main lounge is a fabulous room, with bi-fold doors to the rear terrace and a full wall of fitted cabinetry - all bespoke - with a drop down cinema screen and high quality AV setup. The dining room also has bi-fold doors to the rear terrace, a range of fitted cabinetry including wine coolers and a bar area and with two crittall style doors leads through to a huge open kitchen dining living space. This stunning area is double height and overlooked by the first floor landing, and provides a fantastic triple use space for eating, dining and living, with bi-fold doors in two areas, leading to a retractable outside covered terrace at the rear. The kitchen was refitted by the fantastic Hetherington Newman of Knutsford, and is exceptional quality, with a range of contemporary styled hand painted cabinets and a large central island, built-in appliances, some by Gaggenau, which include gas burners and a griddle, and twin ovens. A built-in breakfast pantry area has a microwave and a breakfast set up compliments the cabinets. Adjoining the kitchen is a children’s playroom which could double as a study/sitting room, and a large utility room sits to the side with a range of similar hand painted cabinets. A large, fifth sitting room sits to the front of the house, is currently used as a large childrens’s playroom, but could easily be a third lounge or a dedicated media room.
The indoor swimming pool complex is entered through a coded and secure door into a lobby with fully fitted shower room/changing room, and a steam room, and the lovely indoor swimming pool is situated at ground floor level with a retractable cover and has direct access through bi-fold doors to the rear terrace and garden, and a partially vaulted ceiling. A large glass fronted gym is air conditioned and has three full length windows to the front and a glazed aspect in to the pool. An adjoining pool filtration room has a separate access to the front of the house for ease and security.
There are four bedrooms at first floor level - the main bedroom suite is superb enjoying a full height glazed aspect overlooking the wonderful gardens to the rear and with a staircase leading to a first floor office or perhaps further dressing room/sitting room which overlooks the bedroom area. It boasts a stunning double dressing room, with extensive wardrobes, a dressing table, and a large central storage island has been fitted. The adjacent en suite bathroom is of the highest quality and provides a walk-in shower cubicle with double showers, a separate WC cubicle, freestanding bath in the window and mirror fronted double sink cabinet. A guest bedroom sits to the front of the house with an en suite shower room and a superb suite of two bedrooms, ideal for children, sits at one end of the house with a central dressing room, stunning remodelled bathroom and two large double bedrooms with fitted furniture. A useful first floor utility room is accessed off the landing.
On the second floor are three further large double bedrooms, one with an en suite shower room and two further overlooking the rear gardens with vaulted ceilings, and they share a family bathroom.
The gardens and plot are fantastic, the house has been beautifully maintained and includes all the areas suitable for a growing family. An extensive security system with cameras is installed along with remote entry gates leading, there is a resin bound driveway, and there a detached double garage. Entertaining areas include a charming children’s soft sports area immediately outside the kitchen, a huge split-level entertaining terrace with sunken seating area and fire pit and a fantastic open/closed outdoor veranda area with retractable roof, ideal for the UK climate!. A further children’s soft play area to the rear of the pool includes a small rubberised street with climbing frame.
