Full description
Occupying a remarkably private position in the heart of the town centre, this exceptional detached residence is virtually hidden from the roadside and remains largely unknown to many passers-by, creating a rare sense of seclusion despite its highly convenient central location.
This stunning residence is set within gardens approaching 0.23 acres, located within this highly regarded conservation area. Arranged over three floors, the beautifully proportioned accommodation includes 5/6 bedrooms, three bathrooms, three/four elegant reception rooms and an impressive open-plan living family kitchen.
Beautifully presented throughout, the property reflects the owners’ passion for design and quality, with elegant interiors finished in a sophisticated palette of Wimborne White by Farrow & Ball. The tasteful décor enhances the light-filled accommodation, creating a timeless and cohesive style that flows seamlessly from room to room. Every aspect of the home has been carefully considered, resulting in a warm, welcoming and refined living environment that perfectly complements the property’s outstanding specification and generous accommodation.
Originally built in the 1950s, this double-fronted detached house was completely rebuilt in 2009, creating a modern home of outstanding quality and specification. The ground floor benefits from underfloor heating throughout, while the first and second floors are served by a gas-fired central heating system with radiators.
The welcoming reception hall, with its impressive staircase, sets the tone for the accommodation and leads to a range of versatile reception rooms. These include a generously proportioned study/home office, ideal for modern remote working, together with a superb lounge centred around a Chesney’s of London Italian stone fireplace. This elegant reception room enjoys a deep bay window overlooking the rear garden, creating a light-filled and relaxing living space. Across the hall, the formal dining room features a charming bay window and provides an ideal setting for entertaining, flowing naturally into the kitchen to create a sociable open-plan arrangement perfectly suited to modern family living.
Undoubtedly the heart of the home is the magnificent bespoke kitchen, redesigned in 2013 by Sarah Anderson. Beautifully hand-painted and thoughtfully crafted, it features an extensive range of fitted units complemented by a distinctive floating corner unit and luxurious marble and quartz work surfaces. A substantial central breakfast island forms a stunning focal point for both everyday living and entertaining. Measuring an impressive 19’3” x 14’3”, the kitchen opens into a superb sun lounge with solid oak doors and bi-fold doors overlooking—and providing access to—the garden.
Additional ground-floor facilities include an inner lobby, cloakroom/WC and a practical utility room.
To the first floor, a spacious 19-foot landing serves three well-proportioned bedrooms. The impressive principal suite extends to 18’8” x 15’6” and benefits from a dressing room, created from the original fourth bedroom, together with a well-presented en-suite shower room. In addition, there is a large, well-designed principal family bathroom with a connecting door to bedroom two, ideal as a Jack and Jill arrangement for guests. The bathroom features a double-panel bath, twin-sink vanity unit and a large walk-in designer shower.
The second floor provides two further bedrooms and a recently refurbished shower room, making the property ideal for larger families or those seeking flexible guest accommodation.
Externally, the property is set well back from the road behind a gravelled driveway providing ample parking. The mature rear garden offers an excellent degree of privacy and features attractive patio seating areas, extensive outdoor entertaining space and a delightful summer room, creating a wonderful setting for relaxing and socialising throughout the year.
A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial detached family home of exceptional quality in one of the town’s most sought-after central locations.
