An exceptional six bedroom family home set in around 2 acres in a picturesque semi-rural location with wonderful views.
This beautiful six bedroom home is located on Doras Green, close to the villages of Crondall and Ewshot, and enjoys breathtaking countryside views.
Approached via electric gates and set within grounds of around 2 acres, this expansive home offers over 5,000 sq ft of accommodation arranged over three floors.
From the charming brick façade adorned with wisteria to the interior spaces tailored for modern living, this is a truly exceptional property that combines timeless character with contemporary functionality.
Arguably the heart of the home is the lovely bright kitchen/dining room, which has been thoughtfully designed to maximise the views of the garden and beyond. The kitchen is bespoke and handmade by local kitchen designers, Lewis Alderson & Co, and is well equipped with a 5 oven dual control electric Aga, integrated appliances, a butler sink and a large central island with breakfast bar. The room benefits from underfloor heating, and a feature skylight and direct garden access via double doors, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow. Off the kitchen is a useful larder.
Adjacent and open plan to the kitchen is the family room room and separate dining area with feature fireplace and log burner, creating a perfect space for both entertaining and family life. On the opposite side of the home is a more formal double aspect sitting room with bespoke cabinetry and double doors opening onto the garden. A snug with bay window provides a tucked-away space, which the current owners are using as a gym, while a study opposite ensures room for home working.
There is a fully tiled wet room with underfloor heating and a walk-in rainfall shower. A utility room with a secondary double electric oven, boot room with direct access to the garden, and a boiler room which is accessed through the integral double garage complete the ground floor accommodation.
The first floor comprises the principal bedroom with bespoke hand built wardrobes and an en suite with a free standing bath and separate shower. There are four further bedrooms, one en suite and two connecting to a shared bathroom. A family bathroom and secondary study complete the first floor accommodation. The property benefits from two staircases, one leading from the entrance hall and a second from outside the drawing room, leading directly to the principal bedroom.
The second floor includes bedroom six with an en suite shower room and views over the garden.
Outside, the secluded garden extends to approximately two acres with stunning elevated countryside views. It has been extensively landscaped to include a formal garden and lawns and a decked terrace which is perfect for entertaining, relaxing and making the most of the glorious view. Accessed via a gentle slope is the large natural pond with a varied selection of aquatic plants and beyond this is an secondary lawn that leads to a tranquil woodland walk. The garden is surrounded by mature trees, light woodland, shrubs and wildflowers and provides a habitat for wildlife.
Tucked away in the woodland on the edge of the second lawn area is a versatile garden pod with living room, kitchenette and additional room which can be used as a bedroom. Outside there is a large decked area which creates an ideal entertaining space away from the house.
Fencing provides screening from the carriage driveway to the front, which offers parking for numerous cars and access to the double garage.

I feel that the view and feeling of escape at this house would make a commute to London truly worthwhile.
