Property description

Enjoying a secluded gated plot with mature landscaped grounds in the Surrey hamlet of Burwood Park, this bespoke property extends to in excess of 6500sqft providing three levels of contemporary family living at its most luxurious. Originally built by renowned award winning 'Octagon' and more recently specifically re-designed and re-modelled to meet the individual lifestyle of our client, Foxgloves offers a unique and impressive fusion of classical and contemporary architecture coupled with interiors modelled for sophisticated, yet practical living. The features that have been created in this home are of the highest possible specification with no expense spared. Attention to detail and finish throughout is simply unparalleled and inspiring.

The entrance hallway immediately sets the tone with engineered walnut flooring and central turning galleried staircase.

The modern dining area sits between the kitchen and drawing room and leads on through to the impressive Study/Library, with bespoke hand built stained oak units and feature fireplace enjoying view to side and rear of the garden.

The dual aspect drawing room with remote control fireplace features Wainscoting panelling, which is complimented by the hand moulded coffered ceiling.

The heart and centrepiece of the home is the beautiful 'Martin Moore' open plan kitchen / breakfast / family room complete with huge centre island, with oversize granite worktops with hand carved detailing and integrated appliances. The range of kitchen appliances are of the highest calibre, as would be expected from a home of this pedigree, including Marques such as 'Miele', 'Sub-Zero' and 'Wolf' to provide the latest in contemporary design and technology. In addition to the main kitchen area a secondary breakfast area provides a wet bar, coffee machine and wine fridge.

Additional rooms on the ground floor include a media/playroom, office/homework room, WC, utility room and integral double garage.

One of the highlights of Foxgloves is the sizable master suite which includes a vaulted coffered ceiling with air conditioning, lobby and lounge area, fully fitted 'His & Hers' dressing room with central station and impressive five piece en-suite complete with roll top bath and walk in 'Kalista' shower complete with book matched marble.

In addition there are three further bedrooms all with individual en-suites with contemporary-styled sanitary ware.

The top floor currently provides two further well-proportioned rooms which are serviced by air conditioning. This floor offers flexibility for either bedrooms, secondary accommodation, or even a home gym. There is also an additional good size shower room and well thought out storage.

The Home Automation System synchronises the heating, air conditioning, security system, audio visual and multi-scene mood lighting, fingertip control via touch screens, hand-held tablets or smart phones.



Further Information


Entrance
A wrought-iron gated entrance with imposing stone topped pillars announces the entrance to Foxgloves from Onslow Road. The sweeping tegular paved driveway offers ample parking and turning space centred in the manicured front garden, the full impact of the impressive proportions of Foxgloves and its classical 'Octagon' façade are revealed.

Gardens
Foxgloves enjoys just over half an acre of fastidiously landscaped grounds offering fantastic levels of privacy and seclusion. The rear garden features a stunning natural Indian sand stone terrace which leads to the beautifully kept lawn flanked with boarder planting. These are serviced by an automatic irrigation system which covers the entire plot. Beyond the lawn sits the childrens' play area, which includes swings, slides and trampoline, built on natural play bark. Strategically illuminated feature lighting creates an incredible effect at night and allows outside enjoyment late into the evening.

Architecture
The beautifully proportioned façade presents a classical interpretation, featuring traditional handmade red brick elevations with traditional timber sash windows and a central white pillared portico entrance. The rear of the house has been tastefully extended to remain in keeping with the house design. Stone cast bays compliment the coping and parapet whilst the twin vaulted glass skylights allow maximum daylight to flood into the house.
The ground level is characterised by six sets of double opening doors with French windows on either side.
The pleasing geometry of the ground level is echoed above at first floor with hardwood weighted sliding sash windows.

Both front and rear elevations of the house are framed with a stone cast course and matching window dressings.

Interior Fittings & Design
The specification commissioned for the re-design, extension and renovation programme was achieved by specially sourced sympathetic fitted furniture and one-off bespoke items, with the resulting scheme being luxurious, enjoyable and ideal for the modern family lifestyle. This has been achieved through the ambiance created by mood lighting, clean lines, solid handmade hardwood furniture, stone fireplaces, walnut and 'Travertine' marble floors. A contemporary and tastefully customised interior which complements the classic façade.

Home Automation & Media
Foxgloves' bespoke automation system combines the most efficient and technologically advanced systems available in the market which makes it a distinctive feature of the property.
