Grand Eight-Bedroom Estate with Pool and Guesthouse on Hadley Common

A long gravel drive leads through secure electric gates to the distinctive red-brick façade. Inside, a wide entrance hall with a magnificent turning staircase sets the tone for the volumes that unfold throughout the house. To one side lies an elegant drawing and dining room, and to the other a wonderfully calm sitting room and a day lounge arranged for everyday living. The kitchen and breakfast room continue the sense of clarity, fitted with bespoke cabinetry and high-spec appliances, while a powder room and cloakroom complete this level.

The first floor is anchored by a striking principal suite with a ensuite bathroom and a large dressing room. Three further bedrooms occupy this floor, each with its own ensuite and dressing area. The second floor provides an additional three bedrooms, all ensuite; one includes a private sauna.

The lower ground floor brings together the more private and recreational spaces, including a fully equipped cinema room, a salon, a further bedroom suite, a utility room, plant room, luggage store and a wine room. There is also a separate annex with its own entrance, kitchen and living/bedroom space, with its own shower suite, providing flexible accommodation for staff, guests or a home office. A triple garage and ample guest parking sit behind the secure gated entrance.

Within the grounds, a self-contained guest/pool house offers a reception/bedroom, a kitchen and two shower rooms, making it ideal for visitors.

The exterior has been designed for both privacy and pleasure, with sweeping lawns, a large terrace for summer dining, a 50ft heated swimming pool, a decked gazebo and an outbuilding for storage and the pool plant.

The house is equipped with a comprehensive specification, including Control4 home technology, RAKO lighting, underfloor heating throughout, air conditioning, a Grade 4 security system, with 24-hour monitoring video surveillance, marble, porcelain and oak flooring, and bespoke kitchen and bathroom design.
