Nestled in the heart of the picturesque countryside of Cambridgeshire, just 10 miles from Cambridge and 3.5 miles from Ely is this brand new, bespoke five bedroom detached home seamlessly blends modern luxury with rustic charm. Positioned on a expansive 1.2 acre south facing plot, the property offers a tranquil retreat from the hustle and bustle of urban life, providing an idyllic setting for families or those seeking a serene rural lifestyle with uninterrupted views of the broad skies and rich fields that characterise the area whilst still being just a stone's throw away from the popular city of Ely. Both Ely and Cambridge offer main line rail links to London (direct), excellent schools such as King's of Ely and various cultural, shopping and entertainment venues. Your family will enjoy generous living spaces, natural light from large areas of glazing and bespoke sliding doors, luxury materials and high specification.

The house is approached via a long, private gravel driveway leading to a spacious frontage with ample parking. The exterior features a timeless combination of oak cladding and traditional masonry, complemented by handmade Cley roof tiles. Oak rafter feet create open eaves, a large vaulted window and double-glazed flush sash UPVC windows flood the interior with natural light. The 6-meter sliding doors offer floor-to-ceiling views of the surrounding countryside and provide seamless indoor-outdoor living.

Upon entering, you are greeted by a grand entrance hall with a vaulted ceiling and an elegant oak staircase with glass panels. The ground floor boasts an open-plan layout, designed to maximize space and light.

The heart of the home is the bespoke, kitchen/living diner fitted with high-end appliances, solid oak doors, and quartz worktops. The ceiling is double-boarded for soundproofing against above bedrooms, and the space includes a large central island with a breakfast bar. The dining area features 6 meter sliding doors with reflecting glass (to reduce heat from the sun) and stunning views to the rear. If that wasn't enough, there is also a ceiling speaker system designed to enhance the entertainment experience.

In addition to the kitchen/living diner you have a separate, generous living room perfect for cozy evenings to relax and unwind. There are several windows facing the south-facing patio, flooding the room with natural light.

Another room on the ground floor comprises a private study/playroom or potentially a fifth bedroom with a generous built-in cupboard which could potentially be converted to an en-suite (with electrics in situ) at a later date if desired.

Adjoining the kitchen you will find the spacious utility room with additional storage, laundry facilities, and access to the rear garden. Off of the Utility room you will find a stylish guest cloakroom with contemporary fixtures and fittings.

The first floor is accessed via the staircase from the entrance hall, leading to a bright landing area with uninterrupted views of the countryside through the exquisite vaulted windows. There is a huge amount of attention to detail that's gone into this build, including a generous ledge adjacent to the landing corridor above the opening which has a power socket, a prime location for a Christmas Tree lighting up the vaulted windows during the festive season.

The master suite features a spacious bedroom with panoramic countryside views, a dressing room with fitted wardrobes and drawers, along with an en-suite bathroom with tiled flooring and a walk-in shower. The bedroom also includes a Velux window with an electric blind.

All the remaining bedrooms are completed with bespoke, fitted furniture (wardrobes/drawers) providing ample storage for the prospective purchaser.

Last but certainly not least (internally) you will find the well-appointed family bathroom with modern fixtures, including a separate walk-in shower and a free-standing bath with velux window above, the specification of this bathroom is truly breathtaking and must be viewed in order to be fully appreciated.
