Property perusing, scrolling one’s way through estate agency websites – whether in fantasy mode or on a genuine quest – is a very Wallpaper* way to pass a Sunday brunch time or extended train journey. With each explored house or photo-toured duplex apartment, mental mood boards begin to form, new lifestyles are imagined, furniture pieces and artworks put in place. Kitchen dinner parties are planned, rooms remodelled and rearranged. Sometimes a wall might be knocked through.
On the first floor, an expansive reception room with a private balcony overlooks the landscaped gardens. The principal bedroom, located on the top floor with two balconies, features a stylish dressing area and access to an ensuite bathroom featuring a Roca bathtub and walk-in, waterfall shower.This beautifully converted Victorian church stands in a lovely stretch of open countryside in the village of Blackmore End.
The reception hall is approached through a heavy solid oak door onto a slate-finished floor. A bespoke staircase leads to a minstrel gallery. At the centre of the ground floor is a beautifully designed kitchen/dining room with an extensive range of modern units anchored around a substantial island with breakfast bar. This area is open to the principal living space, which includes a log burner and is overlooked by first- and second-floor galleried landings, linked by an exposed feature staircase.
On the first floor there are three individual bedrooms, two currently used as fitted dressing rooms with bespoke furniture, a laundry room and a sumptuously appointed bathroom. The second floor is given over to the principal bedroom suite which features a galleried landing overlooking the main living space, a large dual-aspect bedroom and ensuite bathroom with fitted dressing area.
Outside, lime trees line the driveway, which leads to a substantial parking area. Beyond are extensive lawns and a sunken paved terrace, south-facing and ideal for alfresco dining. The lawns continue at the side of the house, where a detached, air-conditioned garden cabin and the air-source heat units for the house are located.
