Outstanding modern country house!! Easy to miss in this hamlet of houses surrounding the church, but worth scrutinising the name plaques. Once up the tarmac drive lined with tall conifers, the view opens out to take in a spectacular garden spanning a full 180 degrees, as far as one can see, incorporating the elegant cream house to one side, a large detached garage to the other and huge expanses of lawns and formal landscaped gardens. An area of woodland, an orchard and a superb square field, planted with wild flowers are cocooned by thick hedgerows and woodland and just out of sight. A splendid private sanctuary of some considerable size and impact, matched only by the design and specification of the house itself. At first sight, whilst immaculate and with a symmetrical and dignified facade, this contemporary house, comprehensively redesigned and extended 5 years ago, does not prepare you for the scale of the property within, which manifests an architectural flair and sophistication rarely encountered. The breakfast Kitchen came in the top three of a renowned national kitchen design competition and the whole house which has a modern cohesive styling including superb solid oak, walnut and limestone finishes is quite simply, stunning. The beautiful natural materials which come to life with the light that pours in though the numerous windows, bi- folding doors and the orangery roof in the kitchen are complemented by a level of technical specification that beggars belief. Two technical cupboards are required to house the various control systems and manifolds for the underfloor heating (on both the ground and the first floor), the audio visual apparatus, wired for each room, the electric blinds, the air exchange filter and heat recovery system, the cctv camera network, solar panels (discretely place on the roof), and even an integral vacuum cleaner system which is carried through the house. A veritable ‘Smart House’ indeed! Luckily everything is extremely well organised, managed and easily operated using sophisticated light switches. Each bed and reception room has a wall tv point and is individually wired into the central system.
