An opportunity to live in one of Brays most exclusive locations has presented itself in the form of this unique and beautiful six-bedroom property, set adjacently to the desirable Fisheries Estate.

The detached property is set in nearly 8,000 sq ft and is located at the end of a private cul-de-sac in a premier position.

The house has been lived in by the current owner for nearly 40 years and it is definitely a “one-off”, as it was designed by a respected architect and constructed with many well thought out features. The swimming pool and full leisure complex, including Jacuzzi and changing room with shower, is definitely one of the stand-out highlights!

Although there are 6 bedrooms, one is positioned on the ground floor with an adjacent shower room, which should be of particular interest to those seeking ground level accommodation for older relatives or guests. As there is also a study next door, one could turn this into a reception room, transforming this space into a completely self-contained dwelling.

On the other end of the scale, taking up the whole of the third floor, is the most spectacular room (considered bedroom 6), which is laid out more as an annex on its own. It is surprisingly spacious and light and comes with a full shower room and additional cloakroom. This room would be perfect for older children or teenagers, seeking a bit more privacy and independence.

Like most homes, there is also the possibility of changing the orientation and extending, should you wish, subject to the usual planning consents.

Simply, if you are seeking an unusual home that has been exceptionally well-built in a premier location with excellent transport links, then this property strongly warrants a viewing.

ACCOMODATION

GROUND FLOOR

Upon entering, you are met with an impressive and bright entrance hallway which houses a bespoke sweeping wooden staircase with glass balustrade.

Modern Kitchen/Breakfast Room fitted with high-quality integrated appliances

Adjacent Utility room 

Dining Room opposite the kitchen, with views over the landscaped gardens

Drawing Room with double sided fireplace and bi-folding doors which open directly into the conservatory

Double Aspect Family Room which houses the other side of the fireplace and comes with a bespoke media/display unit. This room also interlinks with the conservatory, so along with the drawing room, can offer an exceptionally large entertaining space.

The conservatory is question is larger than average, at 32ft in length, and offers exquisite panoramic garden views.

To the front of the house is a double aspect bedroom, which has built in wardrobes and is adjacent to a shower room.

Next door to the two, is a study, which could either be used in its literal sense, or could work out as an additional downstairs bedroom or playroom.

The extensive Leisure Complex is certainly the stand-out feature of the house. With a glass roof and surround, it also offers panoramic views and opens up directly onto the garden via two sets of bi-folding doors. This complex houses a large indoor heated swimming pool, jacuzzi spa pool, and a separate seating area for relaxing, which is also useful as it enables one to be able to watch young children when swimming.

The changing room is conveniently located next door.

Behind this, is the shower room and separate toilet.

FIRST FLOOR

Master Bedroom with separate walk in wardrobe. This is one of the biggest bedrooms that I’m sure many have seen, and it is very bright owning to the fact it is triple aspect. The walk-in wardrobe is equally very large and follows on through to a generous 4-piece bathroom suite with double aspect windows and extensive built in storage.

Bedroom 2 is double aspect and comes with a bay window and an ensuite bathroom

Bedroom 3 comes with built in storage and has an unusual raised area for the bed, accessed via 3 carpeted stairs, which gives a sort of “throne” effect.

Bedroom 4 looks out onto the rear gardens and has built in storage.

Family bathroom

2 fully fitted inter-linking dressing rooms

SECOND FLOOR

Bedroom 6 houses the whole of the third floor. It has sky lights throughout and comes with both a shower room and a separate cloakroom. It would be a perfect space for a teenager or older child seeking more privacy. However, this space could equally be used as a gym or games room or anything that you wished it to be as it is such a versatile space.

FRONT OF THE HOUSE

The house is architecturally unique, and this doesn’t stop with the exterior.

To the front is a large paved driveway, which provides parking for at least 6 cars and leads up to a double garage that can also be accessed internally from the house.

The drive is surrounded by well-maintained gardens with numerous trees and mature planting which really does deliver an appealing entrance to the property and makes it stand out far above the rest.

REAR OF THE HOUSE

Although there is a paved terrace, the gardens are principally laid-to-lawn and are specifically bordered by mature trees and greenery in order to maintain the houses privacy.
