What was a 1930's house in need of renovating, is now an incredible example of modern architecture. The attention to detail really is astounding, from ensuring the two children's bedrooms are literally identical in size, to the finest fixtures and fittings having been installed.
The 30ft entrance hall gives an immediate indication of the scale and finish of this home. If you are keen entertainers, then the formal dining room can easily accommodate ten guests, who can then retire to the 26ft living room with bifold doors leading out to the sun terrace for drinks and more conversation. The children can entertain themselves in the playroom which has been cleverly designed with an entire wall of storage solutions. The stunning Kutchenhaus kitchen has a wall of units with three integrated Siemans ovens, an island with a breakfast bar, and full-width bi-fold doors leading onto the sun terrace. There is a separate utility and boiler room housing the Megaflow heating system. There is the essential study just off the entrance porch and this leads through to the integrated garage with a roll-up door.
The first floor provides five double bedrooms and four bathrooms all finished with Porcelanosa tiles and sanitary items. The spacious main bedroom benefits from a beautiful ensuite bathroom and an incredible dressing room with two banks of built-in mirrored wardrobes. The stroke of genius was to create two identical bedrooms for the children to ensure there was no squabbling over who has the best room! The real bonus is on the top floor which is home to the cinema, and a favourite space for the family to get together for film night.
To the front of the house is an in and out driveway, accessed via electric gates and can easily accommodate five cars. There is side access leading to the full-width South facing sun terrace and steps lead down to the garden and playground.
