A detached, contemporary six-bedroom house in an idyllic village setting, with beautifully curated interiors, landscaped gardens and exceptional leisure and entertaining spaces.
Glebe House is a superb family home, built in 1999. The property provides over 4,000 sq ft of accommodation over three floors, with comprehensively renovated interiors and excellent ancillary accommodation. The specification includes premium flooring, zoned underfloor heating, mechanical ventilation, new bathrooms, doors and windows throughout. Additional energy-efficient features include an air source heat pump, solar panels and three-phase electricity.
The ground floor centres on an impressive entrance hall with polished marble flooring and an elegant staircase rising to the upper floors. Three reception rooms, include a well-proportioned triple-aspect sitting room with a log burner and French doors opening on to the garden. The dual-aspect study and the dining room also feature French doors to the grounds.
The kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, with stylish black gloss cabinetry by Wren, quartz worktops and upstands and a central island. An impressive range of premium appliances include Neff ovens, coffee machine, a retractable extractor fan, an induction hob, a Quooker tap and wine fridge.
The first floor enjoys a light-filled and spacious galleried landing. The principal suite is particularly impressive, with dual-aspect windows, a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and fitted wardrobes by Sharps. The equally luxurious en suite bathroom includes a television, Jacuzzi bath and walk-in shower. Three further bedrooms feature built-in wardrobes and share a contemporary family bathroom. The second floor provides two further double bedrooms, both with Velux windows and built-in wardrobes. One is currently arranged as a gym, while the bedrooms are served by a contemporary shower room.
Glebe House is approached along Church Yard, a well-maintained private no-through road. Double cast-iron gates open to a substantial block-paved driveway, approximately sixty feet in length and flanked by mature fruit trees. It provides parking and access to the double garage with electric doors. The wraparound plot comprises spectacular landscaped gardens, enclosed by mature trees and hedging. Lawns, established planting, gravel, block paving and porcelain pathways combine to create a private and beautifully designed setting.
Beyond the garage, an air-conditioned entertainment studio/games room features a bar and kitchen, currently set up with a golf simulator. Bi-fold doors open on to a south-facing garden and terrace, with areas for seating and al fresco dining. A timber-framed garden lodge provides a further space for relaxation and entertaining, with built-in seating and a cosy log burner. A practical external utility room provides space for laundry appliances and a cloakroom. Subject to the necessary permissions, the outbuildings offer potential for conversion to an annexe. Completing the grounds is a workshop providing useful garden storage, alongside a productive vegetable garden with raised beds and a greenhouse.

Glebe House is an impressive six-bedroom family home, enjoying a generous plot and a double garage. My personal favourite has to be the superb games room, currently set up as a state-of-the-art golf simulator, although its size and versatility lend it to a whole host of other uses.
