A stunning, eco inspired, architect designed property with delightful landscaped garden.

THE PROPERTY An exceptional and unique, architect designed property - built in 2021 -, stylishly appointed affording high specification with notably spacious, light and flexible accommodation throughout. Clad in a combination of cedar, brick and Portland Stone and principally arranged on the ground floor, the property has been thoughtfully designed to maximise the outlook over the private gardens, with most of the rooms enjoying direct access via an abundant range of retracting doors. Approached via a large, handmade solid oak swivel door with electronic keypad access and leading to a spacious entrance hall with cloakroom and sitting room/office/cinema room leading off, the property is L-shaped and designed to wrap around the secluded garden. It has a strikingly contemporary/mid-century modern feel, featuring a contemporary solid oak slatted staircase - a real design statement - rising to the first floor. The sitting room/office/cinema room has been thoughtfully designed with black-out window concealers that cleverly retract to let natural light in, as and when required. The principal reception room - kitchen/dining room - is a lovely, light, open-plan room with vaulted ceiling offering a clever mix of contemporary and industrial feel to it. The kitchen is fitted with top-end Neff and Bora appliances including a smoke-less, odour-less extractor and a Fisher & Paykel fridge freezer and double dishwasher, with a bar area providing separation between the kitchen and the remainder of the room. Large retracting doors open to the garden - on an infinity level - ideally suited for entertaining purposes or for creating an outside/inside interactive space. The utility room is another well designed room, offering a second kitchen area with abundant storage and easy access to the plant equipment. Also located on the ground floor are two bedrooms and a family bathroom, the guest bedroom offering a spacious 'suite' with sitting area adjacent to the garden and a private en suite shower room. The master bedroom suite is located on the first floor which again affords the whole space to a light and spacious bedroom, which boasts a delightful, recessed reading area overlooking the landscaped gardens, a separate dressing room and independent bathroom all fitted with bespoke cupboards.

OUTSIDE Little Orchard is approached by its own attractively brick paved driveway, leading directly off Pulens Lane, providing parking for up to eight vehicles and further boasting an electric car charging station. Private side gates with keypad controls provide separate access to the rear garden from the lane next to the property, but equally from the front, there is side access on both sides of the property to the rear garden.



The rear garden has been beautifully landscaped to maximise sunshine and privacy, offering many areas of interest including a rill (currently housing some resident Koi Carp), an infinity patio with matching tiles to those inside the house creating a 'continuous flow', a lawned area with raised flower beds and a separate area housing a Gabriel Ash greenhouse. To the rear of the garden lies an outbuilding with sedum roof, which has the potential for a number of uses including an annexe, garden office or a garden store, as required. In all, the property enjoys gardens and grounds of approximately 0.2 acres.
