Poyle Lea is a fabulous contemporary family home updated by the current owners to provide bright and spacious accommodation, arranged over four floors and with underfloor heating throughout. With elevations of combined brick and colour-washed render, the property is distinguished by a tall oak framed glazed atrium to the front that rises to a central gable - creating a truly bright and welcoming home.
The majority of rooms have been designed to make the most of the spectacular westerly views and sunsets. The spacious reception hall leads through to a stylishly designed oak floored drawing room, with log burner, and dining room, from which full width bi-folding doors open onto the balcony. Speakers are fitted to the principal rooms and externally.
Wide tiled stairs lead downstairs to an impressive open plan family living area. This comprises a state-of-the-art, bespoke Rotpunkt HPLXT kitchen, Dekton worksurfaces, a Quooker boiling water, chilled and sparkling water tap, built in Liebherr fridge, freezer and wine fridge, and two integrated dishwashers. The kitchen features a top of the range set of Miele appliances including two ovens, a steam combination oven, microwave combination oven, two warming draws and a full-surface induction hob sitting completely flush with the worksurface. Behind the kitchen sits a walk-in larder and a substantial sized utility room. The electric dumb waiter runs from the utility room and the kitchen, up to the ground and first floors.
This floor also affords spacious informal dining and family areas with a feature gas fire. From here, bi-folding doors open on to the spacious Indian sandstone terrace and level lawned garden. Installed in 2022, there is an automatic Weinor awning (with wireless wind and sun sensor). Finally, a separate playroom equipped with wiring to be converted into a cinema room should the new owner wish, and a cloakroom.
Moving upstairs, four of the six bedrooms offer magnificent views. There is a generous principal suite, with speakers, French doors and Juliet balcony, walk-in wardrobe and beautifully appointed bathroom with walk-in wet room shower enclosure. Three further bedrooms, one with an en suite, and a family bathroom complete the first floor.
The whole top floor comprises two spacious, well-appointed bedrooms, one with a generously sized en suite bathroom. All the bathrooms have stylish Duravit and Hansgrohe fittings.

The front of the property is mainly a block paved driveway which was re-laid in 2022, with side access to the rear garden. The remainder of the grounds lie to the rear of the house and comprise of a rectangular garden with full-width paved terrace and lawns extending to the boundary – all of which is enclosed by both brick wall and evergreen hedges. Poyle Road provides on street parking for residents and their guests.
