Exceptional contemporary home with outstanding designer finishes, garden, and driveway parking. Hassocks station 2.4 miles.
Originally constructed in 2023 and thoughtfully reimagined by the current owners, this exceptional contemporary home showcases a carefully considered blend of architectural style, craftsmanship and modern comfort. The property has been enhanced throughout with an impressive collection of premium materials and finishes, and the result is a home of remarkable quality and individuality, thoughtfully finished and beautifully executed, offering contemporary village living with an exceptional level of attention to detail.
Throughout the home, a carefully curated palette of finishes provides a strong sense of continuity, from the microcement flooring to the ground floor and Coats Paints-inspired colour-drenched decoration, to the considered lighting scheme by Soho Lighting Co and brass detailing by Corston Architecture. Wet underfloor heating and an air source heat pump ensure comfort and efficiency, while Lusso sanitaryware and wood and natural stone finishes elevate all the bathrooms.
The ground floor is centred around an outstanding open plan kitchen, dining and living space, where extensive glazing draws natural light deep into the interior; bi-fold doors create a strong connection with the south-west facing terrace and garden beyond.
Hand crafted by Wood Works Brighton, the Japandi bespoke kitchen is inspired by Scandinavian and Japanese principles, pairing natural materials with clean architectural lines. Central to the kitchen is a Milano oak fluted island handpainted in Farrow & Ball Studio Green, with quartz worktops and oak breakfast bar, complemented by a Calacatta marble sink run and splashback surrounding the stunning Olif Living raw brass sink, set with a Quooker hot tap and Yardley bespoke handspray. A comprehensive range of tall housing and under-counter cabinetry, Miele appliances, and a walk-in pantry with reeded glass panels, oak shelving and a Fisher & Paykel fridge and freezer combine to create a space that is both visually impressive and highly functional.
There are two further rooms on the ground floor, which could offer study, bedroom or additional reception space as required. A utility room, finished to the same high specification as the kitchen and with space for laundry appliances, and an understairs cloakroom complete the ground floor.
On the first floor is a galleried landing, with electronically operated Velux windows ensuring the house is flooded with natural light. The principal bedroom has a beautifully designed en suite wet room with a rainfall shower, and both bedrooms have eaves storage. This floor is completed by a beautiful family bathroom, offering a spacious and calm spa-like retreat.
Outside, Oak Lodge is approached via a shared private drive which leads up to the a private driveway providing parking for two vehicles. The fully enclosed rear gardens extend around three sides of the property, offering a well-screened setting bordered by mature evergreen planting. A generous paved terrace provides the ideal space for outdoor entertaining, and planning permission has been granted for an additional detached garden room, presenting exciting potential for a studio, home office or leisure retreat.
