Henwood Drive, Boars Hill

The house was built in the 1930s and has been skilfully and sympathetically modernised by the vendors, making a very stylish and modern home with light, neutrally appointed interiors which are easy to personalise. The bright, airy layout is entirely open plan on the ground floor, with excellent flow: the front door opens to a relaxing snug and adjoining sitting room, and onwards to the highlight of the home, a stunning kitchen and dining room. There is plenty of storage in wall and base cabinetry, plus a large central island that doubles as informal seating and food preparation space. The space is warmed by underfloor heating, while the dining area overlooks the garden and can be opened to the outdoors via a set of bifold doors; it is lit from above by a sizeable roof lantern. Adjoining the kitchen there is a utility room for laundry machines and a cloakroom with WC. An open oak staircase in complementary wood adds to the feeling of light, leading up to the first floor. Here, the three bedrooms are arranged around a central landing, including a fabulous principal bedroom with a vaulted ceiling and exposed timbers, and a balcony accessed through folding doors. There is also a walk in en-suite shower. The second of three well proportioned bedrooms includes a bath, bespoke vanity unit and wc. The middle bedroom has a large velux roof light, and fitted wardrobe.

This property has 1.13 acres of land.
