Description
High Bank House is a most imposing and very special modern home extending to over 3,500 sq.ft, occupying a generous plot and a private and peaceful position in this highly sought-after and well-served South Cambridgeshire village.

Originally constructed in 2018, High Bank House is a magnificent detached residence providing exceptional accommodation of impressive proportions and offers maximum space and flexibility.

Highbank House occupies a most desirable position within this exclusive development of just five homes, and benefits from a generous mature plot with a high degree of privacy.

The principal entertaining space comes in the form of the spacious, open-plan kitchen/dining room. The kitchen, individually designed by Nicholas Anthony, is comprised of a range of soft grey handleless eye and base level units, with quartz work surface and full height quartz splashback. The kitchen is fully fitted with integrated Siemens appliances including double eye-level oven and warming drawer, full height fridge and freezer, eye level coffee machine and 5 ring induction hob with extractor hood. There is also a substantial central island unit with wraparound quartz work surface, recessed butler style sink with Quooker instant boiling water tap and plenty of useful storage, together with bin storage as well as Siemens dishwasher and Caple wine cooler. The quartz work surface wraps around and further extends to create a 3 seater breakfast bar. The kitchen boasts two sets of bi-folding doors to the front aspect which allows an abundance of natural light.

Off the kitchen there is a separate utility room and plant room which leads to side access to the rear garden. The utility room has a range of eye and base level storage units with laminate work surface over, inset stainless steel sink with mixer tap over and space for washing machine and tumble dryer. The plant room houses the immersion heater and technical controls for the underfloor heating which runs throughout the entire property as well as all other control panels and electrical resources.

The morning room which is located to the rear of the property is a very special space and boasts quite a remarkable and unique double height, oak framed feature window enjoying views over the rear garden. Wall lighting creates an ambient space and the vaulted ceiling allows the room to be flooded with natural light. Engineered oak flooring further compliments the oak framed feature window.

An interesting contrast can be felt in the formal living room which is also a very generous space yet manages to exude cosiness owing to the current owner's additions of a new stud wall with inset TV point- perfect for relaxed evenings and slow weekends. This room also enjoys views over the rear garden which can be accessed through bi-folding doors. Engineered oak flooring adds to the soft cosy feel.

There is also a further family room/snug adjacent with a feature wood burning stove and dual aspect windows to front and rear aspect, as well as a useful library room which has been improved by extensive storage and display cabinetry with window to front aspect.

A solid oak staircase with glass balustrade leads to the first floor where 5 double bedrooms are located off the central galleried landing area where the double height oak glazed windows to the front and rear aspect can be fully appreciated.

The principal bedroom suite is located to the rear of the property with high ceilings and ambient wall lighting, together with fitted sliding wardrobes as well as a further storage cupboard. A pair of double glazed sliding doors lead to a timber decked terrace area enjoying views over the rear garden. The master en-suite is a luxuriously appointed and very generous fully tiled bathroom with tiles by Porcelanosa, Duravit bath with tiled bath panel, large rainhead shower with further handheld attachment and glass screen. Feature wall hung Duravit "his and hers" double basin unit with extensive soft-close storage under, chrome heated towel rail and wall hung Duravit WC with recessed chrome flush plate. There is a Velux window and ambient fitted wall lights.

There are three further generous double bedrooms two of which have access to the en suites and one to the family bathroom which have also been fully tiled with high quality Porcelanosa tiles and generous shower enclosures with large rainhead shower and further handheld attachments, wall hung Duravit basin unit with soft-close storage drawers under, downlights, fitted mirror and chrome heated towel rail.

All bedrooms benefit from fitted wardrobes, high quality carpets and a range of eye level and Velux windows to maximise natural light. Bedroom 5 is located adjacent to the principal bedroom and is currently being used as a very large dressing room.

The family bathroom is fully tiled with high quality tiles and features a large bath with tiled bath panel, glass screen and wall-mounted handheld shower attachment as well as separate shower control and mixer tap, feature recessed toiletry shelf, basin vanity unit with soft-close storage beneath, wall hung WC with recessed chrome flush plate, wall-mounted chrome heated towel rail and feature ambient wall lighting.

To the front of the property an attractive brick wall encompasses the pebblestone driveway which in turn leads to a block paved pathway and turfed area to the front of the property. There is a double garage with electric timber up and over rolling doors with light and power. Gated side access via a paved pathway leads to the very generous rear garden which is principally laid to lawn with an extended paved patio area. The garden is bordered by tall mature trees which provides the highest degree of privacy. The air source heat pump is located to the side of the property.
