An exceptional detached contemporary residence set in a private, tree-lined plot within the historic Blaise Castle Estate.
This outstanding modern family home is quietly nestled in an exclusive private setting accessed via a shared driveway with just one neighbouring property. Located behind secure electric gates, this architecturally designed residence occupies a tranquil and secluded plot of approximately one-third of an acre, surrounded by mature trees and thoughtfully landscaped gardens.
An Exquisite Detached 4-Bedroom Contemporary Masterpiece
Approached via a long, tree-flanked drive with motion-sensor lighting, the property opens to a substantial gravelled area offering ample off-street parking and access to a large detached garage/workshop (21'9" x 18'9") with scope for conversion into a self-contained annexe or home office. A stream (Hazel Brook) gently borders the approach, enhancing the peaceful, semi-rural ambience.
The wrap-around slate terrace and expansive level lawned gardens make this home ideal for al fresco entertaining, gardening and family enjoyment. The fully enclosed grounds are pet-friendly and include a greenhouse, two bespoke sheds, multiple fruit trees and an unusually practical feature—a discreet, mains-connected dog waste flush point!
Step inside via a striking entrance foyer where you are immediately met with a sense of space and high quality finish. The showpiece bespoke staircase, hand-crafted from European oak with wrought iron spindles, ascends through a vaulted galleried landing, making an unforgettable first impression.
