Set deep in the heart of the countryside and surrounded by open fields, this striking family home blends modern design with rural charm, offering space, light, and thoughtful detailing throughout. Built in 2019 and still covered by the remainder of its new-build warranty, the house sits in around 1.3 acres of beautifully planned gardens, enjoying uninterrupted southerly views and the peace and privacy of a semi-rural setting. From the moment you step into the generous entrance hall, there’s a real sense of arrival. A vaulted ceiling creates drama and space, while the solid oak staircase leads you naturally towards the heart of the home. The ground floor has been designed with family life and entertaining in mind. The main reception space is a remarkable open-plan sitting and dining room that stretches over 47 feet in length. It’s a room that’s flooded with natural light, with two sets of bi-folding doors framing the garden and countryside beyond. A central inglenook fireplace with wood-burning stove adds warmth and character, making this space as inviting in winter as it is open and breezy in summer. The kitchen/breakfast room is positioned to make the most of the views, too – triple-aspect and opening directly onto the rear terrace via more bi-folding doors. It’s fitted with bespoke cabinetry and integrated AEG appliances, and offers a relaxed place for informal meals or morning coffee while watching the garden come to life. There’s a dedicated study at the front of the house – ideal for home working – complete with fitted bookcases and a peaceful outlook. A large utility room, boot room, and two WCs are also thoughtfully placed on the ground floor, keeping everyday tasks tucked out of sight. Upstairs, the principal suite enjoys a beautiful outlook across open countryside from its Juliet balcony. It includes fitted wardrobes and a stylish en suite bathroom with twin basins, separate shower, and freestanding bath. There are four further bedrooms, each a comfortable double – one with its own Juliet balcony and another with an en suite shower room – alongside a smart family bathroom. The outside space is as well-considered as the house itself. The gardens wrap around the property, with a paved terrace for outdoor dining, a pergola covered in jasmine, and plenty of pockets for seating or reading in the sun. A striking water feature adds a sense of calm, while the lawns are framed by mature planting, herbaceous borders and spring bulbs. Further down the garden, a well-organised vegetable area features multiple raised beds and a greenhouse, perfect for those with green fingers. To the front, a wide gravel driveway is accessed via electric gates and offers plenty of parking. There’s also planning permission in place for a detached double bay garage, allowing future flexibility. This is a home that offers a rare balance – peaceful and surrounded by nature, but within easy reach of Edenbridge station (just over 2.5 miles away), making it as practical as it is picturesque.
