Welcome to your own slice of architectural mastery, poised elegantly in the picturesque northeast of England. This 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom detached residence, a proud creation of Harpers Developments, is a testament to superior craftsmanship blending local traditions with a bold, contemporary aesthetic.
At Stonley Fields, the discerning homeowner is greeted with an opportunity to finalise a masterpiece. Buyers are invited to lend their vision to the finishing touches, allowing for a personalised ambience within a home that's structurally complete and full of high-specification features.
Indulge in the comfort of underfloor heating throughout, courtesy of an eco-friendly air source heat pump, and the luxury of quality kitchens featuring integral appliances. Wet room-style shower rooms and freestanding baths exemplify the luxurious appointments within, while fitted dressing room storage adds a layer of convenience to elegance.
The architectural design pays homage to the region's vernacular, employing local stone and Siberian Larch cladding. Zinc roofs offer a modern twist and promise longevity, ensuring this home stands the test of time.
Internally, the property is a canvas for luxury living. Three expansive lower ground rooms offer versatility: envision a semi-self-contained living quarter, a trio of generous double bedrooms—one en-suite—or perhaps a leisure suite with gym and spa facilities opening onto a private terrace ready for a hot tub or sauna.
The journey through the home is as magnificent as its destination, with a central galleried and vaulted entrance hall making a statement, seamlessly connected by a steel centre spine staircase.
The upper ground floor is a celebration of light and space, where dual aspects bathe the open-plan reception area with natural warmth. A modern two-way fireplace anchors the living space, complemented by a kitchen that's both a chef's dream and an entertainer's delight. Additional rooms on this level afford flexibility, serving as bedrooms, studies, or snug retreats.
Ascend to a private sanctuary on the first floor: a master bedroom suite with expansive dressing quarters and en-suite facilities that rival a five-star spa. An additional large en-suite bedroom caters to family dynamics of all kinds.
The exterior of the home mirrors the grandeur within. A large integral garage, a gated driveway, and surrounding gardens offer both aesthetics and functionality. Landscaping is yet another facet open to personalisation.
