5 bedroom house

Ribbledene is an individually designed Arts and Crafts inspired luxurious family home sitting perfectly in a 1/4 acre plot on The Drive in Brockhall Village.
This impressive and imposing 5 bedroom home has been hand crafted without compromise and has brick and render elevations with a canopied arch porch between two feature bays.
Accessed from the impressive grand entrance hall, there are two reception rooms, study and impressive open plan living / dining kitchen with utility room to the ground floor. To the first floor are 5 double bedrooms, Master with dressing area and ensuite, second bedroom with ensuite and three double rooms sharing the beautifully finished and equipped house bathroom. Externally there are substantial gardens to front and rear, a detached double garage and copious amounts of parking. This house is truly a unique proposition and inspection will not disappoint.

In the later years of the 19th century, a group of dedicated artists sought to revive the classical skills of medieval craftsmen, whilst also celebrating the honesty and integrity of the way in which buildings and furnishings were made in this bygone golden age. This became known as the Arts and Crafts movement, in which early Gothic and other imaginative styles were championed by great creative talents such as Ruskin, Pugin and William Morris.

Ribbledene has been hand crafted and is beautifully constructed in the Arts & Crafts style with a superb high quality contemporary interior. Behind the elegant front door is the large symmetrical entrance hall with access to all ground floor spaces. A solid Oak bifurcated staricase benefitting from astro programmed back lighting dominates this space leading to the first floor galleried landing. The cloakroom and WC are situated on either side of the entrance.

The ground floor is designed to meet all the needs of busy family life. The heart of this beautiful home is the open plan kitchen/breakfast/family room, with access to the garden through bi-fold doors. Note the utility room and store opening off the kitchen. Other ground floor accommodation includes a separate sitting room with a bay window, a study with a bay window and a dining room with French doors opening onto a large patio ideal for more formal entertaining. The dining room, kitchen/breakfast/ family room and patio all combine to create a large party area.

Of the five bedrooms, two have luxury en-suite wet rooms and the master bedroom also contains an expansive dressing room. The other bedrooms are served by the large family bathroom which has a walk in wet room and also a bath.
