Summary
Tucked away behind a vast gated frontage and set well back from the road, this exceptional character home boasts beautifully curated and immaculately presented accommodation throughout, centred around an oustanding expansive open-plan kitchen designed for both everyday living and impressive entertaining. Two further generous reception rooms and an exceptionally large utility space enhance its practicality, while a sumptuous principal bedroom suite provides a luxurious retreat. Each of the four bedrooms are equipped with their own en suite. Occupying an enviably private 0.59 acre plot (approx.), the grounds are nothing short of spectacular, with sweeping gardens that blend seamlessly into tranquil woodland and a stream. Despite its peaceful, secluded setting, the home remains conveniently located just 1.2 miles from the centre of Barnt Green.
Description
Introduced by a beautiful oak-framed storm porch with a tiled roof, this exceptional home opens into a grand and generously proportioned entrance hall, immediately conveying a sense of space and quality. The hall incorporates a useful understairs WC and a useful shoe cupboard, while a set of double doors leads into a versatile reception room, currently utilised as a playroom but equally suited to a variety of alternative uses such as a formal sitting room or home office.
The hallway also flows seamlessly into an outstanding, expansive open-plan kitchen, dining and family space forming the true heart of the home. This impressive area is beautifully appointed with quartz worktops, a breakfast island and integrated ceiling speakers, while large floor-to-ceiling windows and French doors flood the space with natural light and perfectly frame views of the gardens beyond. A comprehensive range of high quality integrated Miele appliances includes an oven, microwave, induction hob, plate warmer, dishwasher and fridge.
Accessed directly from the kitchen, the separate lounge provides a cosy retreat, featuring an integrated media wall, ceiling speakers and a striking ‘Dru’ gas inset fire. French doors open onto the garden, allowing for a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.
A particularly notable feature is the huge utility room, also accessed from the kitchen, offering an abundance of cupboard space, washing and drying facilities, and convenient side access to a patio area. The Worcester boiler is also housed here.
Hydronic underfloor heating runs throughout the ground floor entrance hallway, WC, kitchen and utility room.
To the first floor, a generous landing provides a useful cupboard housing the hot water tank. The principal bedroom is especially impressive, enjoying a Juliette balcony with breathtaking woodland views that create a tranquil, treetop feel. It further benefits from a walk-in wardrobe and a substantial luxury en suite bathroom, complete with tub and separate shower enclosure, finished with elegant Porcelanosa tiles and electric underfloor heating.
The second double bedroom features a large wardrobe and its own en suite bathroom, while the third double bedroom offers a fitted wardrobe, en suite shower room and the added luxury of a private balcony with a delightful outlook. A further double bedroom also benefits from fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower room, ensuring excellent accommodation for family and guests alike.
The partially boarded loft offers additional storage space.
Outside
The property is set within a spectacular and peaceful mature garden (approx. 0.59 acre plot), surrounded by established trees and offering a high degree of privacy. A west facing deck extends directly from the kitchen, providing the perfect setting for relaxation and outdoor entertaining. Beyond, a beautifully designed tiered landscaped arrangement of wooden decking with planted areas creates multiple zones for al fresco dining and everyday living, gradually descending to an expansive lawn with a south-west facing sun deck spot, perfect for sunbathing.
An insulated summer house with power, lighting and electric heating - currently used as a gym - offers excellent versatility and could equally serve as a home office or studio. Beyond the lawn, the garden blends effortlessly into a natural woodland area, leading down to a charming stream, creating a truly idyllic setting.
A substantial gated frontage, predominantly laid to stone chippings with a planted border, provides secure off-road parking for numerous vehicles, completing this remarkable home.
Some of the trees are subject to Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs).
