Built in 1991, it was purchased by the current owners in 2017 who then instigated a comprehensiveremodel and refit where not just the cosmetics were included in the program of works. The aim was to future proof the house with a refurbishment that provided the peace of mind that only an exceptionally thorough job is equipped to do. The house was also extended, the garden room wasadded as was the gym with a principal bedroom suite above.To the main structure the roof was replaced, new PVC windows (many with fitted blinds) and remote-controlled Velux skylights were installed; the garden room skylights have fitted rain sensors and thosein the high ceiling of the principal bedroom (it rises dramatically to the roof's apex and has a real 'wow' factor), have remote control blinds. Internally the house has been tastefully decorated using a select palette of colours bringing a sense of calm and flow to the accommodation. Joinery was replaced; there are contemporary oak doors with striking black ironmongery (the black of the handles echoed in the sockets and switches around the house), both staircases (there are two) feature a bespoke oak and smoked glass balustrade, internal flooring was renewed and, in many rooms, features hard wearing and practical Karndean. In the hall, the oak doors are complemented by an oak bench with upholstered seat, above which is an arrangement of a high shelf and hooks for coat storage.Indicative of the attention to detail employed the refurbishment went right back to basics. The house was rewired, there is LED lighting throughout (many fittings are dimmable) and outside the house isilluminated at night (again, all LED). It was also replumbed and a new central heating system installed, continuing the strong and consistent design aesthetic, black radiators tie in visually with the handles and switches.
