House For Sale £1,650,000
THE PROPERTY
It has to be said that there is nothing ordinary about Woodside. It is an inspirational house in every respect. It is a substantial, handsome and spacious house. At about 8,500 sq ft the property provides free flowing and beautifully proportioned reception rooms set around a gorgeous staircase and reception hall.
The house is best described in two parts. The southern element is Edwardian and dates from about 1901 hence the fabulous proportions and robust accommodation. The northern part of the house was created by the owners in 2007-2008 in a sympathetic and careful fashion using plenty of reclaimed materials to ensure a blend of old and new. Woodside is not all about ordinary life. This is a flagship. It was reconditioned and designed for permanence and to impress those who expect immaculate presentation and the best quality.
The house forms an extraordinary package which enables extreme comfort and convenience all rolled up into a stylish and enviable family house. In addition to the convenience and comfort of the highest quality and specification modern day appliances and technology, Woodside provides the space and proportions that are key to formal entertaining and perhaps most importantly, every day family life.
There are three south facing principal or formal reception rooms arranged off the central walnut floored hallway. Each of these rooms has high ceilings and a view of the landscaped garden. The depth of the skirting, character in ceiling cornices and proportions of the rooms are all strong attributes.
The sitting room could be used for a variety of purposes to suit the demographic of the buyer, from a playroom to an intimate reception room or study. It has a door leading out into the garden. Arguably the centre point or hub within this house is the fabulous open plan living kitchen and garden room as it provides optimum space for family life, informal dining, entertainment, access to the leisure wing and easy enjoyment of the garden. The kitchen is an extremely sociable space. It was designed and installed by DSE interiors in American walnut with granite and Corian worktops. The integrated appliances are all premier quality. The fridge is a Sub Zero professional with a glass door and the cooker is a Wolf dual oven professional chef range cooker. There is also a drinks area with bar and hidden integrated cooler fridge drawers. There is also an instant hot water tap. The utility room is discreetly yet centrally located in the house.
The leisure wing is clearly one of the key attributes and striking elements to Woodside. The centerpiece to this area is the beautiful swimming pool. It has an integrated pool cover that can take a person's weight, it has an endless pool system and a sitting area with spa jets. The changing area has a hidden sauna, a double shower area and toilet. The gym room is fully air-conditioned.
The first floor cinema room is another important feature, but may be used by families for different reasons. There is a fixed screen and projector and the sound quality is to be heard to be believed. It was specifically designed as a cinema room by experts with acoustically lined floor, walls, ceiling and door in order to ensure minimal disturbance, even at the highest of volumes.
The integrated garage has been finished in order to house the smartest and largest of vehicles with space for storage in addition. There are two oversized panelled up and over and insulated remote operated doors. There is a wall mounted 22Kw EV charging point in the garage.
The first floor is reached by a beautiful staircase with a striking stained glass window to a spacious galleried landing. There are seven bedrooms and four bathrooms including a self-contained apartment, a guest suite and master bedroom suite. The master bedroom suite is special with an impressive tiled walk in wet room. The sink and fitted cabinet are by Keuco and the fitted furniture in the dressing room by Alexander Carrick.
The house bathroom has a Jerusalem limestone floor and lime stone walls. There is a walk in shower room with steamer and a double bath with an Aquavision TV connected to SKY.
The three main bedrooms on the south elevation each have air conditioning by means of fan coil units hidden in the loft feeding the rooms by linear slot diffusers through the ceilings. It should be noted that the carpets to the master bedroom, landing, stairs and drawing room were bespoke and made to measure the property by Bronte Carpets which means that there are no unsightly joins on the landing or in any of these rooms.
OUTSIDE
Woodside is approached through electrically operated security gates over a gravel drive and turning area which culminates in front of the house and gives direct access to the garage wing.
The property is fenced entirely providing a secure and pleasant environment for children and pets to enjoy. The majority of the garden is laid to lawn with some mature and semi mature trees around the boundaries. Immediately abutting the south western elevation of the house is a purpose built sitting and dining area with fire pit providing an excellent place for alfresco eating and entertaining in the summer months.
