Enhancements and upgrades
A home renovated over the past seven years to serve as the ultimate space for modern family living, enhancements have seen the home grow alongside its owners, with games room, bar, outdoor kitchen and gymnasium all added over time.
Welcome home
Admire the lovingly landscaped gardens and grounds at Pear Tree Farm, where box hedging and spiralling topiary set a formal scene, making your way to the entrance hall, where glass windows and door invite the light in.
Part panelled to the lower walls, with shimmering wallpaper above, Karndean herringbone flooring flows out underfoot whilst warmth emanates from the cream, cast iron radiator.
Ahead, freshen up in the convenient cloakroom, furnished with WC, vanity unit wash basin and chrome heated towel radiator, and dressed in alluring Demoiselle wallpaper from Harlequin, with panelling to the lower walls.
Feast your eyes
A vision of open plan living, the entrance hall opens up to the airy and light-filled kitchen-dining family space, the heart of the home. Immediately, on the right, sliding glass doors draw the outdoors in, framing far reaching views out over the decked terrace to the acres of garden stretching into the distance.

Blending country comfort with modern functionality, the stunning Matthew Marsden, bespoke, hand painted oak kitchen is timeless, offering a profusion of storage.
Integrated appliances include a Belfast sink with Quooker tap and Fisher & Paykel
wine chiller within the spacious central island breakfast bar, whilst further appliances include a duo of combi ovens, microwave and induction hob, alongside a dishwasher and a Fischer and Paykel freestanding fridge.
Sociably open, yet conscientiously zoned to allow family to ebb and flow, congregating together and seeking out pockets of privacy and solitude. The cream Chesney wood-burning stove serves as a cosy focal point, bringing loved ones together, whilst the vast glass sliding doors ensure the outdoors is never far away.
Entertaining haven
A pocket door slides open to connect you with the bar and cinema room, currently furnished with a Sony projector and mood lighting. Authentic cinema seating even features snack and drinks holders for a true movie night experience.
Tucked off the kitchen there is also a beautifully equipped Matthew Marsden laundry room, where classic Shaker style cabinetry provides plenty of storage, and plumbing can be found for a washing machine and tumble dryer. There is also a double Belfast sink, full height cupboard for mops and ironing boards, alongside an integrated fridge and freezer. There is also a useful laundry chute, connected to the master bathroom upstairs.
Celebrate with family
From the entrance, turning left leads you along a light and bright entrance hallway, where another external door offers an alternative way in.
Off this hallway lie two formal, peaceful rooms, ideal for entertaining and family gatherings. With ample space for a twelve-seater dining table, views on two sides extend out over the striped, lawned garden.
Grey panelling to the lower walls adds a sense of ceremony in the dining room, where a cream Chesney stove instils the room with warmth and welcome.
Quiet time
Across the entrance hall, the sitting room serves as a tranquil retreat, with an attractive white fire surround encompassing a Chesney log-burning stove. Both the sitting room and dining room feature bespoke, fitted pelmets and blinds, while both enjoy advantageous views out over the verdant garden.
And so to bed
Ascend the carpeted stairs to the first-floor landing, where freshly fitted panelling adds character and ambience. Spacious and bright, the large landing is filled with natural light, and enjoys an open feel.
Make your way through the first door on the right to reach a private and peaceful double bedroom, carpeted in grey and furnished with fitted, ivory-coloured wardrobes and overlooking the fields and quiet lane to the front. As with each of the bedrooms, there is provision for a wall-mounted television.
Next door, also on the right, navy blue panelled walls lend a stately feel to the second of the double bedrooms, where gold handles dress the fitted wardrobes, and private office area, kitted out with built-in desk, drawers, cupboards and shelving. Secreted within the cabinetry, discover a built-in media wall, ideal for X Box and television.
Refresh and revive in the ensuite shower room with recessed LED lit alcove shelving within the tiled walls and furnished with wash basin and push panel flush WC.
Across the landing, a host of ivory fitted wardrobes feature in the third of the double bedrooms. Cream carpet adds a serene feel underfoot, with views out along the quiet country lane, fringed in fields and greenery.
A dressing table features sockets for a wall mounted television above and can also serve as a desk, with drawers beneath. Step up to a carpeted dressing area with built-in storage, where there are further sockets for the addition of a separate dressing table.
Along the landing, sneak a peek at the walk-in storage closet, where more cupboard space awaits, before reaching the refreshment of the family bathroom next on the left.
Wave feature tiling is a focal point behind the roll top, claw foot bath, filled by a wall-mounted tap. To the side, the handy laundry chute makes light work of the washing. Step into the wet-room, walk-in shower, with drench head. Fully tiled to the walls and floor, an inset television features alongside two elegant wash basins and wall-mounted WC. Fitted storage is available for all your lotions and potions.
Across the landing, the sublime and light-filled guest bedroom is accessed via a walk-in wardrobe, fully furnished with storage. Full height windows frame far reaching views out over the garden and topiary-filled courtyard.
Peacefully positioned at the end of the landing, double doors sweep open to reveal the sumptuously sized principal suite.
On the left, the fitted dressing room overflows with storage and offers an enchanting outlook out over the fields and countryside. On the right, enter the private study, where fitted furniture is topped in solid wood worktops for a stylish finish. There is also a media wall with television.
Emerging into the main bedroom, the high, vaulted ceiling amplifies the airiness of the room, where light streams in through full height windows looking out over the acres of land and countryside beyond. Air conditioning ensures an ambient temperature even in the height of summer.
A Chesney log burner features in the sitting area of the bedroom, subtly zoned by a low wall to create a restful retreat, and ensuring the television screen can still be seen from the bed.
Sink into the foaming waters of the roll top bath of the pristinely pannelled ensuite, to renew and recharge; also furnished with twin wash basins inset within a vanity unit topped in marble, and a partitioned WC.
Leisure time
Outside, almost five acres of expansive garden has been carefully cultivated to create the ultimate relaxation and entertaining space for those fortunate enough to reside at Pear Tree Farm.
Nestled separately from the main house, the fantastic games room offers privacy and independence for younger members of the family. Sliding doors provide instant access out to the garden, whilst the addition of a cloakroom with a WC and wash basin, hints at the potential to convert this self-contained and spacious den into an annexe apartment for extended family members.
Conveniently, the home also includes two double garages, each equipped with electric up-and-over doors, heating, and electricity. Adjacent to the garages are two workshops, providing ample space for various projects, along with a dedicated bike store.
Furthermore, a detached, fully furnished office offers great views over the garden, creating an inspiring and serene workspace.
The highlight of the garden is undeniably the outdoor kitchen with its porcelain tiled floor and full height sliding doors that open gracefully to the patio. A skylight floods the space with natural light, while amenities such as a pizza oven, granite worktops, and a Chesney stove make it perfect for year-round use.
Primarily laid to lawn, the garden preserves your privacy and connection to nature whilst also serving as a magical space for children to play in peace and safety. Soak up the sunset from the luxury of the hot tub, or rest and recline on one of the different terraces or patios.
Low-maintenance perennial borders, and box hedging all enhance the aesthetic appeal of Pear Tree Farm.
