Property Description
Positioned behind a post and rail fence with landscaped frontage and open countryside beyond, Wishfield House is an exceptional six-bedroom modern detached home that captures the grace of traditional Georgian architecture while offering the comfort and convenience of a modern family home. Stone sills and symmetrical proportions to the front elevation create a timeless presence, while inside, the home opens out into a series of beautifully finished rooms perfect for family life, entertaining, and flexible working.
Step Inside
A traditional stone-flagged footpath leads to the entrance, where a bright and welcoming hall features a striking oak and glass staircase, crafted to a wider-than-standard design that enhances the sense of openness and luxury. Travertine tiled flooring underfoot and a discreet understairs WC reflect the attention to detail and practicality found throughout the home.
To the front, two well-proportioned reception rooms sit on either side of the hall. The sitting room is a wonderfully bright space, enjoying a triple aspect with a bay window to the front, bi-fold doors to the rear patio, and side glazing that enhances the feeling of openness.
A contemporary inset wood-burning stove with natural timber mantle and Silestone hearth adds a striking focal point to the space. Opposite, the second reception room is currently used as a spacious study but would work equally well as a snug or playroom, depending on the needs of the family.
To the rear of the hall, the home opens into a superb open-plan living kitchen – the true heart of the home. This thoughtfully designed space includes a generous dining area and a relaxed seating zone, perfect for gathering with friends and family. Whether it’s morning coffee with the doors open to the garden, lively weekend breakfasts, or larger celebrations, the space adapts with ease.
A full range of modern shaker-style cabinets are topped with a mix of quartz and block oak work surfaces, with quality integrated appliances and an instant hot water tap for effortless functionality. Full-width bi-fold doors open directly onto the stone patio, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection that makes the space ideal for entertaining through the seasons.
Just off the kitchen, a practical utility room continues the style with matching cabinetry and quartz surfaces, along with external access to the rear garden – ideal for managing the demands of busy family life with style and ease.
The first floor is approached via the beautiful feature oak and glass staircase, which continues onto a bright landing with matching balustrade, setting a sophisticated tone that flows throughout the upper levels of the home.
There are four spacious double bedrooms on this floor, each offering well-considered proportions and modern styling. The large principal suite is a standout feature - a generous en suite shower room, vaulted ceiling and a set of bi-fold doors that open onto a stunning glazed balcony. From here, far-reaching views over open farmland create a wonderful sense of space and privacy, making it an ideal spot for morning coffee or unwinding at the end of the day. The room also benefits from air-conditioning, ensuring a comfortable retreat year-round.
Of the remaining bedrooms, one also benefits from its own en suite, while another is currently configured as a fully fitted dressing room, featuring fitted wardrobes and a central feature island – a luxurious space that could easily be reverted back to a bedroom if preferred.
A family bathroom serves the remaining rooms, fitted with a modern vanity unit, WC and bath, completing the first floor with style and comfort.
The staircase continues to a smaller second floor landing, where two further spacious bedrooms complete the accommodation. Both are currently used by the owners as a second home office and a media/games/gym room, but they offer excellent flexibility and could easily be used as guest accommodation, or hobby spaces.
Each room features roof windows that bring a pleasant sense of space and light, and both are cooled by a shared air conditioning unit, ensuring year-round comfort. This floor provides an ideal retreat for teenagers, or anyone seeking quiet space away from the main living areas.
The home is efficiently heated via an air source heat pump, with underfloor heating throughout the ground floor, offering sustainability, energy efficiency and day-to-day comfort. Zoned heating controls allow for temperature management in different areas of the house.
