Description

Magnolias is an exceptional family residence, thoughtfully designed to offer light-filled and generously proportioned accommodation, enhanced by bespoke architectural detailing and a clear expression of the owners’ design sensibility.

At the heart of the home lies the impressive kitchen/breakfast room, a superbly appointed space featuring a comprehensive range of custom cabinetry, a central island, integrated appliances, and a Stoves range-style cooker. Bi-fold doors open seamlessly onto the rear garden, while built-in banquette seating provides an inviting area for informal dining. Double doors lead through to the L-shaped sitting room, a beautifully balanced space with a contemporary inset log burner, part-vaulted ceiling, and sliding glass doors that frame views of the garden and allow for effortless indoor-outdoor living.

The ground floor offers three well-proportioned double bedrooms, each with en suite facilities. The principal suite benefits from a walk-in wardrobe and French doors opening directly onto the rear terrace. A further en suite bedroom, currently utilised as a study, together with the adjacent utility room, presents an opportunity to create a self-contained annexe if desired.

On the first floor, a spacious family room provides an additional area for relaxation or entertaining, complemented by a further double bedroom with en suite shower room and ample eaves storage. Both rooms enjoy far-reaching views across open countryside to the rear, enhancing the sense of tranquillity and seclusion.

Approached via secure electric gates, the property is set behind a gravelled driveway offering extensive parking and access to the garage. The rear garden is a particular highlight, designed to take full advantage of its southerly orientation. A broad paved terrace spans the rear of the house, ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining, while the manicured lawn is bordered by vibrant planting and mature hedging, creating a private and picturesque setting.

To the rear of the garden, a sunken hot tub sits beneath a timber pergola, offering a secluded retreat. Opposite, a versatile garden building currently serves as a home office or gym, with boarded storage above and an adjoining shed providing further practical space.
