4 Bed Detached House For Sale

*** VIDEO/REEL AVAILABLE TO VIEW VIA THE VIRTUAL TOUR LINK ***

High House Drive is one of the originals on this historic single-track lane that once led to High House Farm and its position was deliberately chosen almost a century ago to maximise daylight, feeling that instant morning sun at the front, natural daylight moving through the house across the day, and the most extraordinary sunset aspect at the rear. It is the view that will stop you in your tracks before you’ve even stepped inside.

Set well back behind sliding electric gates, this late-1930s double-brick detached family home has been completely taken back to brick and rebuilt to a very high standard. The renovation includes new electrics, plumbing, plasterboard, finishes, security systems, CCTV, underfloor heating to the entire ground floor and an exceptional Wren kitchen with quartz. The result is a home with elegance, charm, warmth where modern luxury meets original character, high ceilings, ornate coving and genuine architectural presence. 

Inside, the entrance hall opens to a stylish study snug with operational log burner - this room could also be used as chill out room or home office. The use of black framed internal glazing is intentional and it connects light from room to room and frames.

Those glass doors then lead into the showpiece.... a breathtaking open plan living, dining and entertaining space that steps down to the extended kitchen. A high vaulted roof lantern floods daylight across the island and draws the eye upwards; sliding doors frame the horizon; bi-folds open the side wall out to the porcelain tiled entertaining terrace making this an all-season social hub. The island stretches the length of this zone offering a true party kitchen, a true host kitchen.. “everyone gathers here” 

A matching utility room, styled exactly in the same spec as the kitchen, completes the ground floor.

Upstairs, the generous landing is naturally lit and connects to four double bedrooms and the luxury family bathroom complete with freestanding bath, separate shower, vanity storage and the feature traditional pull-chain toilet, reimagined in a modern scheme. The primary suite overlooks the view  having the bed positioned deliberately so that waking up feels cinematic, the bi-folds opening straight to the skyline.

A further staircase rises to the top level where the loft spaceoffers valuable extra square footage -  ideal for older teens, gaming, a creative studio, homework zone, or a home office hideaway — and once again, the view is front and centre.
