The dwelling is a modern, dual-aspect house that faces west and east. It has a ground floor, a first floor and a second floor in the roof space. It was built in the 1970s and was extended and redesigned in 2016. There is also an outhouse, which was built in 2016 and serves as a garage and pool house. Many trees and shrubs forming a wall of greenery around the house and outbuilding give the property absolute privacy. The garden covers 1,430m². It begins with a paved area along which you can drive a car up to the garage. Just north of this driveway, a paved footpath edges a lawn of around 200m². On one side of this path, there is a children’s play area and on the other side there is a swimming pool with a terrace. The pathway leads up to the house’s main entrance door. The building’s hipped roof is covered with bluish-grey flat tiles. There are four broad dormers on the first floor and four skylights on the first and second floors. A green roof crowns the garage and the eating area of the main kitchen. A simple cornice runs along the top of the plain elevations, which are coated with white rendering. The ground-floor windows are slightly arched and fitted with louvred pinewood shutters that are painted white and have catches on rods. Eight sets of French windows along the ground floor lead smoothly out onto the two granite terraces and to the front and back lawns.

The ground floor
The house’s oak front door leads into a hallway that connects to a 58m² lounge with a dining area. This living room is bathed in natural light from six windows, which face a terrace eastwards, a sunken court southwards and a swimming pool westwards. The floor is adorned with natural limestone tiles. A kitchen adjoins the lounge. It has a central island unit and a floor area of around 34m². A sliding picture window takes you from the kitchen out to the garden’s east side. A pantry leads back to the entrance hall. On the other side of the hall, inside an extension dating back to 2016, there is a games lounge with a floor area of around 33m². It has dark oak strip flooring and a fireplace insert. It faces the garden’s main area on the west side. The ground floor also includes a guest bedroom, a shower room, a cloakroom and a lavatory. From the hallway, you reach the first floor via a staircase made of natural limestone with a finely crafted iron balustrade that features wrought, gilded leaves and an elegant handrail ending in volutes.

The first floor
The staircase leads up to a corridor. This corridor connects to a first bathroom and a storeroom beside it, then to a lavatory and a bedroom. The bedroom faces south and west and has a walk-in wardrobe with a west-facing skylight. A second bedroom lies beside the first one. It faces west and looks down over the swimming pool and the garden’s main area. On the north side, next to another lavatory, there is a large, high-ceilinged bedroom with exposed beams. It leads out onto a balcony. This bedroom has a storage space and an en-suite bathroom with a shower. Oak strip flooring extends across the whole of this first floor.

The second floor
You reach the second floor via a wooden staircase with the same finely crafted balustrade with decorative leaves. Up here, there is a games room with sloping attic walls and oak strip flooring. A large roof window fills it with natural light. A loft space that has not been converted lies above the large first-floor bedroom.

The basement
The central staircase leads down to the basement. A corridor connects to a steam room with light therapy equipment, a fitted utility room, a cinema room, a lavatory, a boiler room and two storerooms. At the end of the cinema room, a door leads to an extra space, which connects to a sunken court where a flight of steps leads up to the swimming pool terrace. This extra space is a studio apartment made up of a bedroom, a shower room and a lounge with a kitchenette.
