A striking, contemporary village house with excellent
eco credentials, offering beautifully appointed accommodation of around
2,250sq.ft with four double bedrooms, attractive gardens, ample parking & lovely views
in a sought-after location.
Silver Birches is a striking contemporary home offering spacious accommodation, which is flooded with natural light and enjoys a private setting on the edge of this sought-after Howardian Hills village.
Constructed with energy efficiency in mind, using modern SIPs technology, the property has been thoughtfully designed to offer excellent energy efficiency, superior levels of insulation, and year-round comfort. It combines modern performance with a superb layout and highly versatile layout, which has been designed to capitalise on the flow of natural light throughout the day.
Silver Birches benefits from oil-fired central heating, which is underfloor throughout the ground floor, windows are double-glazed and there is solar hot water system. Another notable feature within the house is the Vent-Axia ventilation system, designed to enhance indoor air quality and improve energy efficiency. By continuously circulating fresh, filtered air while reducing excess moisture and condensation, the system helps create a healthier and more comfortable living environment.
At the centre of the house is an impressive double height hall, with a statement staircase to one side, leading to a galleried landing, but the heart of the home is a stunning, 34ft open-plan dining/kitchen/living space with electric AGA and direct access onto the garden and a west-facing covered terrace. The overall living accommodation totals approximately 2,250sq.ft and also includes a utility room, a total of four double bedrooms (two downstairs), two shower rooms (one en-suite) and a house bathroom upstairs. One of the first-floor bedrooms could easily be used as an additional reception room and opens onto a covered balcony with west-facing views. For anyone with mobility issues, the property enjoys step-free access, a disabled access shower room as well as two of the bedrooms being on the ground floor.
Outside there are attractively landscaped gardens, which enjoy an excellent level of privacy and year-round colour and interest. There is an abundance of gravelled parking, and a recent pre-planning application indicates that there should be no issue in obtaining consent for a double garage, if needed.
With its inviting atmosphere, quality craftsmanship, and emphasis on sustainable living, this is a property which is perfectly suited to those seeking both character and contemporary convenience in a desirable countryside setting.
