With breathtakingly beautiful south-west facing gardens that have Italianate landscaping, a tennis court, gym and
swimming pool, Amarna House sits nestled within stunning gated grounds that create a hugely seductive private enclave.

A self-contained annexe sits above detached garaging while the accommodation of the main house stretches magnificently out over more than 4500sq ft with a duo of reception rooms, a snug, study, superbly appointed kitchen/breakfast room and spacious principal bedroom suite.

Double doors give a grand entrance to a duo of reception rooms where French doors forge a seamless connection with idyllic terracing. An impressively proportioned double aspect main room has the focal point of a wood burner within its fireplace, the second produces an enviable retreat with its tastefully styled fitted cabinetry and views.

Along the hallway, a study is fully fitted with a solid wood desk and cabinetry, and together with the adjacent double aspect snug produces a vast degree of flexibility to cater to your own lifestyle needs. With twin sets of French doors and a superbly fluid feel, a contemporary kitchen/breakfast room adds a natural central heart and hub. A matching utility room keeps laundry appliances hidden from view and two ground floor cloakrooms.

The galleried landing gives each of five double bedrooms their own sense of space. Producing its own wing of the house, a principal bedroom stretches out to further French doors overlooking the gardens, complete with a fitted dressing room and en suite bathroom. Four further double bedrooms supply an ideal measure of flexible accommodation. A smart family bathroom has a full sized bath. Accessed directly from the side of the galleried landing, a hidden second staircase guides the way up to the second floor where a sixth bedroom extends out over an outstanding 32'10ft.

Walled and gated the enchanting frontage offers a degree of privacy and seclusion without compromising on the aesthetic of a quintessential English country garden. Its more than substantial gravel driveway combines with detached double and single garaging to give you a multitude of off-road parking space, while established lawns are bordered and peppered with statuesque trees, hedgerows and fully stocked beds.

Giving plenty of options for a live-in nanny or long term guests, a self-contained annexe with a light filled reception/dining room, kitchen and bathroom extends out above the garaging adding first class secondary accommodation.

To the rear, a truly breathtakingly beautiful south-west facing garden stretches out before you
seamlessly blending with the surrounding landscape. The French doors of the ground floor allow expansive tiered terracing to add an easy flowing extension to your home. Supplying an enviable choice of spots for al fresco dining or the simple pleasure of an afternoon siesta, it incorporates an impeccable outdoor swimming pool while a timber pergola gives dappled shade when you want to recline and unwind after a swim. Bordered by high evergreen hedging, these picturesque grounds reflect the grace and elegance of the house itself with an exemplary central walkway reminiscent of the formal design of an Italianate garden.

Tucked away to the rear, a working vegetable plot is somewhere that anyone longing to grow their own produce will love, while an enclosed full size tennis court sits within the peacefulness of an adjoining field. Its good to note the garden also benefits from a complete automated irrigation system with its own bore hole, which was installed at a considerable cost. A detached timber framed gym has a wall of bi-fold doors and a decked terrace of its own, and a large detached workshop has an adjacent store with a WC. A machinery shed adds a considered finishing touch to this prestigious Saunders Lane residence.
