Built in 2012, this is a luxurious and spacious home, designed comfortable living. Let us give you the guided tour:
A Warm Welcome
As the electronic gates open and you pass down the landscaped driveway, you can feel the warm lights of ‘Belle Vue‘ welcoming you home.
At the end, there is space for several cars and a detached double garage shrouded in sweet smelling wisteria.
Friends and Family
Step onto the marble doorstep, push open the dark wood double doors and enter into the expansive hallway, where an impressive chandelier twinkles overhead. Take a seat while your remove your coat and shoes, and experience the oak flooring underfoot. Store your items away in the floor to ceiling wardrobes that are off to the left, next to the first guest cloakroom.
Returning to the hallway, look straight ahead and you‘ll see the gleaming white floor and walls of the family room contrasting against the green of the back garden.
This vast room really is the heart of the home. It is the room the current owners will miss most as it‘s where their family spend all their time when they are together. With three distinct areas for cooking, dining and reclining, there is enough space for everyone to do their own thing and yet still be together.
The designer kitchen at the far end has composite granite surfaces which stand out against the white background. The central island is a wonderful informal setting for chatting over a cup of tea or a quick bite to eat. Off to the side of the kitchen area is the utility room which has white units, appliances for washing and drying clothes, a sink and a semi-glazed door to a hidden outside area (ideal for drying clothes alfresco but keeping them out of sight!).
In the centre of the family room is the dining area which fills the recessed bay and so is surrounded by windows and doors to the garden. This is a wonderful space for a sunny lunch with friends or a romantic evening meal for two.
Back at the entrance of the family room is the lounge area, a comfortable and relaxed zone for the family to chill out at the end of the day or for everyone to gather round and watch TV or play video games on a plus-size, wall-mounted screen.
Formal Sophistication
As you re-enter the hallway, turn to the left and you‘ll find the formal lounge. A striking limestone fireplace makes a bold statement and is complemented beautifully by floor to ceiling mirrors in the alcoves. Glazed doors provide another means of accessing the garden and allow natural light to flood into the room and to reflect off the mirrors, making this a bright and vibrant space throughout the day. At the other end of the lounge, wooden double doors open into the grand dining room where a stunningly elegant chandelier immediately grabs your attention. In the evening, if you look past the chandelier and through the windows, the view along the driveway is equally inspiring.
A second door takes you back to the hallway where, diagonally opposite, there is an additional reception room which would be ideal as a snug or TV room, or perhaps a dedicated office space. Back across the hallway a grand wooden staircase with plush cream carpet takes you upstairs.
Retire to Complete Luxury
Once again, the impressive modern chandelier makes a beautiful focal point, and a large window gives an alternative view of the driveway. Six doors lead from the landing, two provide some welcome storage space, the remaining four each lead to a stunning bedroom suite with Villeroy and Boch en suite bathrooms.
The principal suite is an exquisitely cool and tranquil sanctuary. In this bedroom large mirrors reflect light from equally large windows, giving an impression of more space and additional rooms. The walk-through dressing area allows for clothes and accessories to be stored and displayed so you can select the perfect outfit before entering the bathroom. The bath has a solid surround which is ideal for a few candles or a glass of wine while you bathe. A separate shower cubicle is just the thing for busy mornings, and a large double sink with his ‘n‘ hers taps adds to the feeling of personal space.
The three remaining bedrooms on this floor are also quite luxurious. Very generous sizes, all with tall windows allowing in lots of natural light, and all with en suite bathrooms. Two of these suites also have dressing areas while the third has stylish built-in wardrobes that fill the width of the bedroom.
Returning to the landing, a second set of stairs leads upwards to the next equally spacious landing with an arched feature window and view over the driveway.
Flexibility and Independence
On this floor there is a fifth bedroom suite. The sloping of the eves around the bed gives this room a very cosy feel, while the Velux window directly above makes this the perfect room for dreamers to gaze at the stars before falling asleep. In the morning, wake to the sunlight overhead and walk through the dressing area to the light and bright en suite bathroom.
As you leave the bedroom suite there are three further rooms to explore on this level. The first is the second guest cloakroom, opposite this is a reception room which would be ideal as a cinema room or possibly a gym. The third room is a studio room with a large open space and a kitchenette in the recessed area. This top floor would provide excellent private space for an au pair/ nanny, an older child looking for independence, or visiting friends/ family.
Secluded Outside Space
Returning to the ground floor you can select to enter the back garden from the lounge, family room or utility room. The curved patio area runs the width of the house, so no matter what the occasion, guests can filter outside to enjoy the Kate Gould designed garden. A lush green lawn dominates the garden, with mature bushes and trees in the borders ensuring that you are not overlooked by distant windows.
Luxury and Practicality
While undeniably beautiful this spectacular home is also extremely practical. One of the first things you notice is the absence of radiators, with underfloor heating throughout you have complete flexibility of room design. The Lucent Lighting system allows you to adjust room lights at the touch of a button, you can create specific pre-programmed settings for mood lighting that can again be activated with a single touch. As you‘d expect, the windows are all double glazed but as a nod to tradition and charm they are sash in design. With an EPC rating of C, you can feel comfortable that your home is energy efficient.
Out and About
If you‘re feeling active the local golf and tennis clubs are both a short distance away. Or for something more leisurely, you can take a stroll around the woods or Monken Hadley Common.
Hadley Wood train station is also nearby and can take you in to Central London in 30minutes. Alongside the train station you‘ll find a small, select range of shops, perfect if you need a pint of milk, a quick cut and blow dry or a cheeky cappuccino. Back to listing
