Set in the very heart of Sunninghill Village, this exceptional one-off bespoke renovation and extension of a charming 1800's detached cottage offers an elegant fusion of period character and contemporary living.
Behind its attractive, heritage façade lies a thoughtfully reimagined home designed for modern family life. The property provides four true double bedrooms, including a well-appointed principal bedroom with en-suite shower room, alongside a stylish family bathroom finished to a high specification.
The ground floor is both spacious and versatile, featuring two generous reception rooms ideal for both formal entertaining and relaxed living. To the rear, the home opens into an impressive open-plan kitchen/dining/family space, perfectly suited to modern lifestyles. This light-filled area benefits from two sets of bi-fold doors, seamlessly connecting the indoors with the garden. A separate utility room and downstairs WC adds further practicality.
The kitchen and utility areas are beautifully finished with quartz worktops and fitted with premium Miele appliances, boiling water tap and wine fridge, while the bathrooms showcase Villeroy & Boch sanitaryware complemented by Porcelanosa tiling, creating a refined and luxurious feel throughout.
This home has been comprehensively upgraded with quality and efficiency in mind, including multi-zonal underfloor heating across the entire ground floor, a new Vailant boiler and heating system, all new plastering, and new flooring throughout. Low energy lighting has been installed across the property, while an Aquabion water softener system (requiring no salt replacement) adds further convenience.
Externally, the property continues to impress. A spacious patio leads onto a raised yet level lawn, ideal for outdoor entertaining and family use. A standout feature is the substantial, hand-built outbuilding, currently arranged as a home office/gym, complete with electricity and heating - perfect for flexible modern working or leisure.
The exterior has been finished with a high-quality silicone render, ensuring a low-maintenance finish with no requirement for repainting. To the front and side, generous gravel driveways provide ample off-street parking for multiple vehicles, in line with planning requirements.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully executed home that perfectly balances its period origins with the demands of modern living, all within one of Sunninghill’s most desirable village locations.
