Summary
This exceptional residence, extending to over 4,193 sq ft, has undergone an impressive transformation to create a truly stunning and versatile family home. Thoughtfully designed for modern living, the property is centered around a spectacular open plan kitchen, dining and family space, complete with sliding doors that seamlessly connect the interior to the rear garden. A selection of flexible reception rooms further enhances the adaptability of the home, while five generously proportioned double bedrooms provide outstanding accommodation, including a sumptuous principal suite featuring a balcony spanning much of the rear elevation, a walk-in wardrobe, and a luxurious en suite with a striking floor-to-ceiling window overlooking the garden.
Set within an expansive plot of approximately 0.59 acres, the property enjoys a substantial frontage and generous rear garden, along with scope to personalise certain areas, with foundations already in place for a planning approved ‘ancillary outbuilding to form a garage and gym’. Adding further appeal is a separate annex building offering self-contained accommodation over two floors, ideal for multi-generational living or guest use. Conveniently located just 0.7 miles from the heart of Barnt Green and within the catchment area for the highly regarded St Andrew CE First School, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully reimagined home in a prime village setting.
Description
The accommodation is entered via an impressive oversized pivot door, opening into a bright and expansive hallway with a part double height ceiling, immediately setting the tone for the space and light found throughout the home. A double cloaks cupboard provides practical storage, while an open archway frames a superb view straight through to the kitchen and, beyond, through glazed doors to the garden, creating a striking sense of depth from the moment you arrive.
Two generous reception rooms are positioned at either end of the house, each benefitting from large front facing picture windows that flood the spaces with natural light. Currently arranged as a living room and a gym, these rooms offer excellent flexibility. The gym also incorporates a cupboard housing the boiler and enjoys a sliding patio door providing direct access to the side of the property.
Undoubtedly the heart of the home is the exceptional open plan kitchen, dining and family room with an adjoining sitting area - a superb space perfectly designed for modern family life and large scale entertaining. A vast set of sliding doors opens the entire area out onto the garden, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living. The high quality kitchen is beautifully appointed with an extensive range of cabinetry, a central breakfast island, quartz worktops and a boiling water tap, alongside a suite of AEG appliances, including items from the recent matte range such as an induction hob, eye level electric oven, combi oven and warming drawer. A cleverly concealed utility room sits discreetly behind matching kitchen cabinetry, offering further storage and direct access to the garden.
To the first floor, a galleried landing with a large picture window creates a wonderful sense of openness and light, complemented by a double airing cupboard housing the hot water tank. The principal bedroom suite is particularly impressive, featuring a sliding glazed door opening onto a balcony that spans much of the rear elevation with a sleek glass balustrade, alongside a walk-in wardrobe, air conditioner and a luxurious en suite bathroom, complete with a striking floor-to-ceiling window overlooking the garden. Bedroom two also benefits from a dramatic floor-to-ceiling window to the rear, while two further double bedrooms feature vaulted ceilings, one of which includes its own en suite shower room. The fifth bedroom, positioned to the front, enjoys a part vaulted ceiling with an eye catching apex window.
Annex
The separate annex building adds significant versatility, offering self contained accommodation over two levels. A front door within the part glazed frontage leads into an open plan living room and breakfast kitchen, with access to a utility space and shower room, while stairs rise to a mezzanine bedroom with built-in cupboards.
Outside
Occupying a plot of approximately 0.59 acres, the property is ideally positioned centrally within its grounds, allowing for equally generous front and rear gardens. The driveway is approached via pillars on either side, offering the opportunity for gates, and provides ample parking with scope for further enhancement. Foundations have already been laid for a planning approved ‘ancillary outbuilding to form a garage and gym’ (24/00947/FUL), giving future owners the opportunity to complete to their own specification. A woodland area to the front offers a high degree of privacy, screening the property from the road.
To the rear, the garden is predominantly laid to lawn and enclosed by hedged and fenced boundaries, creating a secure and private outdoor space. A substantial patio extends across the back of the house, providing the perfect setting for outdoor dining and entertaining.
Some of the trees are subject to Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs).
