This modern house is a sleek, architectural masterpiece that seamlessly blends indoor and outdoor living. The exterior is characterized by clean lines, large glass panels, and a combination of natural materials, giving it a sophisticated yet warm appeal.
Inside, an imposing entrance/dining hall with a vaulted ceiling and porcelain tiled flooring makes a truly emphatic first impression. The dining area accommodates a large dining table and includes a built-in, glass-fronted wine rack, a double-aspect log burner and bi-fold external doors that open onto an outdoor dining terrace.
Steps down from the dining area lead to the stunning, contemporary kitchen/breakfast/family room which is fitted with a 3m long stone island unit with under-counter seating for six, built-in Miele appliances, an instant hot water tap and a built-in wine fridge. From here, double aspect bi-folding doors open onto another outdoor entertaining area, creating a seamless link with the outside and making this house perfect for entertaining and al-fresco dining.
Overlooking the rear garden is a sumptuous, double aspect sitting room with log burning stove, wood flooring, and bi-fold doors opening out onto the rear terrace.
To the front aspect is a spacious playroom/office with bi-folding doors and a ground floor guest suite with en-suite shower room and French doors leading to its own patio area. Completing the ground floor layout is a cloakroom with a double cupboard for storage, a marble sink and towel warmer.
From the main entrance hall, a striking American white oak staircase with glass balustrades ascends to a spectacular wrap around landing with fully glazed apex window offering views to the front across the open fields and village.
There are four bedrooms and a family bathroom on the first floor, as well as two en-suite bathrooms. The luxurious main bedroom suite offers an elegant space with a sunken bath, double size shower, twin basins, a walk-in wardrobe and doors opening onto a private balcony and roof garden for private sunbathing and relaxation. This bedroom has been wired for speakers and offers a four-way lighting system for mood lighting. The second bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room, while the remaining two double bedrooms to this level are serviced by a modern family bathroom.
Outside
The grounds that total approximately 0.5 acre are a particular feature of the property. To the front of the house, a large driveway providing off road parking for numerous vehicles and access to the double garage. Set above the double garage is an impressive, one-bedroom self-contained annexe/apartment offering a comfortable and stylish living space comprising an open plan kitchen/dining/sitting room together with an en-suite bedroom. This useful space is further complemented by a fully glazed elevation offering the most beautiful far-reaching views to the distant horizon.
The rear garden features a variety of terrace areas that complement the property’s modern aesthetic feel and offers a unique ambiance for outdoor dining and entertaining.
The rear garden is predominantly laid to level lawn, enjoying a delightful southerly aspect and a true sense of privacy and seclusion.
Set towards the back of the plot is a purpose-built and fully insulated home office/garden studio with full internet, electric heating, a bar and engineered oak flooring. This superb outbuilding offers a versatile space that caters to various needs and activities depending on personal requirements.
Situation
The property stands in a secluded position and is accessed via a private track off the desirable Soames Lane. The village of Ropley is approximately one mile away and boasts an active community with a primary school, church, hall, village shop with post office, recreation ground and sports club. The Georgian market town of Alresford is approximately 4 miles to the west, offering a range of boutique shops, restaurants and public houses as well as the well regarded Perins Secondary School. Further west is the Cathedral city of Winchester (approximately 12 miles) providing more comprehensive facilities, as well as a number of first-class state and private schools, including St. Swithuns. The market town of Alton and Winchester offer mainline railway stations to London Waterloo and the A31 provides a route to the A3 and M3 motorway linking to London and the south. To the east is the well-renowned independent school, Bedales, which is approximately 8 miles from Long Acre.
