INTRODUCTION

Merewood has to be one of the most astonishing and coolest houses in York! The current owners recently partnered with renowned York architect Vincent & Brown to create their vision of modern living - a home of sensational quality, design and attention to detail.

As the electric gates open on arrival, an orchard stands at the right and a view of glorious gardens and grounds awaits. As the driveway swings right, the impressive Merewood façade is revealed - a striking combination of glass, Siberian larch and Corten steel cladding. Taking in the visual effect of floating floors and ceilings on final approach, the scene is set for this peaceful and luxurious home.

Natural limestone tiles feature throughout the house and are complemented by underfloor heating. The spacious open plan kitchen and dining room by Italian designer Giorgetti offers bespoke lacquered cupboards, integrated Miele appliances and stainless-steel work surfaces. () Skylights feature throughout.

Every aspect of day-to-day living is controlled through a mobile app or tablet, allowing the adjustment of heating, security, lighting, media and overall vibe from within the house or remotely. For chilling out, simply press a button and the lighting changes while favourite music is played from hidden surround sound speakers and sub woofers. To relax and watch movies, the projector and screen drop down from the ceiling, the blinds automatically close and 360 degrees of custom audio completes the immersive experience. If preferred, simply admire the wildlife just outside and listen to the sounds that nature creates.

The bedrooms are all of a good size with fitted closets. The bathrooms are very high in specification and include Italian design products by Falper.() To round things off, there is even an indoor sunken garden.

Outside, the gardens and grounds are a haven for wildlife ranging from wild deer to red kites as well as being perfect for playing in, relaxing, picking fruit, partying or simply admiring. The 5 acres and the surrounding area is greenbelt.
Merewood is unique to say the least - a brilliant and astonishing home that is a true pleasure to relax within. It really is a classic example of see it to believe it!
