Designed and created in 2012 by the present owner, this is the finest example of single storey living we have had the pleasure to bring to market. With an American influenced design, this stunning home offers exceptional space and practicality all presented to the highest of standards. Located in the heart of Solihull, at the head of a private gated drive, with just three properties, this fabulous home enjoys unspoilt views across open fields to the rear.

Built to exacting standards of design and technology, the property is equipped with underfloor heating throughout, an integrated speaker system, air conditioning in all main areas and “Control4”, the best intelligent smart-home system that conveniently and easily controls the day to day running of the property including lighting, security, audio/visuals, and heating. The interiors have been elegantly styled to create a luxurious chic ambience, with soft colour palettes, walnut cabinetry and doors throughout, gorgeous drapes and fitted blinds, beautiful Porcelain tiled flooring, luxury sanitary wear, superb feature lighting, and televisions to all principal rooms.

Approaching across a generous block-paved driveway, you immediately get a sense of the unique design and large plot that this exceptional property occupies. Neat box hedges border mature hydrangeas and camellias, creating a lovely splash of colour that draws you towards the central entrance. Two large glass panels and double glass doors lead into the light and airy porch. Double walnut doors lead into the incredibly wide and spacious reception hall, where porcelain flooring and clean, crisp décor set the theme that continues throughout this home. Architecturally designed with space in mind, the central entrance into the reception hall has created two wings of the property, both culminating in principal rooms at each end. The guest WC is fitted with a walnut cabinet housing the hand basin and WC and features a stunning iridescent circular mosaic design on the wall above. There is also a fully fitted cloakroom with rails and shelving. The office is fully fitted with walnut cabinetry and quartz countertops and offers plenty of space for two or three workstations if needed. At one end of the reception hall, double walnut and glass doors lead through to the incredible open-plan breakfast kitchen. This masterpiece has been created with exceptional style and complete practicality in mind. An exceptional feature above the central island is the high vaulted apex roof light with one of two custom-designed Canadian contemporary chandeliers.

In terms of the layout, there are three distinct areas. The first is the spacious dining area with floor-to-ceiling walnut cabinetry housing the TV and offering ample storage in addition to the kitchen cabinetry. There's space for a large family dining table below the second chandelier, and you can enjoy views of the rear garden through the large double French doors, creating a superb area for dining and entertaining. Moving into the main kitchen area, there is a generous central island with stylish curved cabinets, housing a deep Blanco sink, compactor, InSinkErator, Quooker system, and flush-mounted pop-up sockets. The beautiful quartz countertops contrast perfectly with the walnut cabinetry, and the wall and floor cabinets wrap around three sides of the kitchen, offering a vast amount of workspace and housing two further Blanco sinks, a second InSinkErator, Miele induction hob, Miele ovens, pan-warming drawer, microwave, and Elica extractor fan. The Miele fridge and freezer are both oversized and wide-bodied, offering exceptional space. The third area of the kitchen features a tall custom-built breakfast bar with deep quartz countertops and charger sockets below. With a set of bi-folding doors, this is a fabulous space to enjoy casual dining and seating with open views across the gardens, water features, and open countryside beyond.

Leading from the kitchen is the incredibly well-equipped laundry, offering ample space and practicality. Continuing the walnut and quartz theme, it features a tall bank of floor-to-ceiling units on one side with a second Miele fridge, and on the other side, a large workspace with Blanco laundry sinks and Franke mixer taps. Housed below the workspace are the Miele washing machine and tumble dryer. There is also access from the kitchen to the plant room and internal access to the garage. The high-pressure water system and Worcester Bosch boiler are both located in the plant room, and the garage is equipped with a Supramatic electric roller door and loft storage above.

Moving back through the spacious reception hall to the end of the second wing, double walnut and glass doors lead into the impressive living room. With its exceptionally high ceilings and triple aspect French doors, natural light floods into this room, offering delightful, unspoiled views across two separate terraces and the open countryside. The true focal point of this room is the beautiful inset gas fireplace, adorned with Swarovski-style crystals, resting on a quartz and limestone hearth below. Another noteworthy feature is the custom-built bar area, set within a wall recess and fashioned with stylish walnut wall and floor cabinetry, an integrated drinks fridge, a rough-cut limestone tiled splashback, and a spacious quartz countertop for preparation.

Designed with versatility in mind, the generous third double bedroom suite is presently being used as an additional reception room. This fabulous room features a beautiful gas fireplace, built-in walnut cabinetry, and desk space with quartz tops and upstands, making it suitable for a variety of purposes. Double French doors open directly to the south-facing terrace, offering a view of the impressive water feature. Leading off this room is the superb en suite, equipped with a Laufen hand basin set into a walnut cabinet, a low-level WC, and a fantastic shower enclosure with a tall glass concertina door, a rainfall showerhead with a handheld attachment, seating, and stunning feature mosaic tiling.

The principal bedroom suite is exceptional and comprises three main areas leading off the entrance. Pocket doors on one side lead to the spacious luxury en suite. This well-proportioned bath features fabulous dual dressing areas on both sides, each incorporating inset Laufen hand basins, walnut cabinets, inset mirrors with LED lighting, and dressing tables with quartz countertops. In the centre of the bathroom, you'll find the state-of-the-art freestanding Teuco Italian bathtub, which incorporates hydrotherapy technology. Behind the bathtub, there is a feature tiled wall with a shelving recess. To each side of this area, there are two frosted glass doors. One leads to the low-level WC, and the other opens to the large walk-in shower with an oversized rainfall showerhead, a handheld attachment, and a seating area. Opposite the en suite, and again featuring pocket walnut doors and sensor lighting, is the superbly well-designed dressing room. Ample floor to ceiling open cupboards, shoe drawers, and hanging rails offer excellent storage.

Moving past the en-suite and dressing rooms, we reach the principal bedroom. High ceilings and dual aspect windows with French doors offer plenty of natural light and delightful unspoilt views into this tranquil space. To one side French doors lead to your own private side terrace to enjoy the morning sun, and to the opposite side of the bedroom is a further dressing area with two sets of triple floor-to-ceiling fitted wardrobes.

There is another beautifully presented guest bedroom featuring a superb range of high-gloss, floor-to-ceiling fitted wardrobes. The large picture window is beautifully dressed with sumptuous drapes and fitted blinds. As with all bathrooms, the en suite is luxuriously presented, with a walnut cabinet housing the WC and Laufen hand basin. The large shower cubicle features gorgeous tiling with a mosaic feature panel.

Outside

You cannot fault the exceptional location of this property. It's hard to believe you are just a short walk from the centre of Solihull, yet you feel a million miles away in the secluded private rear gardens, with open countryside stretching as far as the eye can see. Just like the property itself, the garden has been cleverly landscaped for low maintenance but with a high-impact design. The beautiful and very spacious limestone terraces glisten in the sunlight, bordered by smartly planted deep beds that create a natural border to the countryside beyond. Three stunning cascading pools elevate this garden design to a new level. With the backdrop of neat box hedges, mature jasmine, camellia, Japanese anemones, and pittosporum, to name just a few, it becomes the most wonderful space to enjoy al fresco dining and entertain family and friends.

The borders are adorned with ornamental cherry trees, acers, and silver birch trees. The planted patio areas near the property contain a mature herb garden and some superb fig trees. The property is beautifully situated within its grounds, offering a 360-degree wraparound from front to back. As you move towards the side terrace, you'll notice the large overhang created over the apex of the principal bedroom, providing a canopy against the elements. This terrace also enjoys open views, and neat stone gabions create a smart natural border between the terrace and the field. As you move to the side, there are two large double gates for easy access to the rear garden. On the opposite side of the main terrace, you'll find two discreetly placed storage sheds, and a further inner courtyard allows access to the garage and laundry area, offering the perfect outdoor space for drying clothes. Every detail has been carefully considered in this outdoor space, including superb outdoor lighting and even a water irrigation system.
