With approximately 3,000sqft of living space, the home is framed by mature hedging and landscaped gardens that blend naturally into the surrounding countryside.
The double-height entrance hall makes an immediate impression. The floating walnut staircase with glass balustrade and LED lighting sets the tone for the rest of the home, where herringbone parquet and tiled floors run throughout.
