This remarkable five-bedroom stone-built contemporary home is set on approximately 0.75 acres of land, offering a unique opportunity for renovation and development in the tranquil countryside of Helmdon. Constructed just five years ago, this residence artfully blends traditional materials with modern design, providing a welcoming ambiance from the moment you arrive.
Accessed through a private drive, the property showcases an appealing façade that invites exploration. Inside, the spacious entrance hall leads to an expansive open plan kitchen, living, and dining area that is designed for both comfort and entertaining. The room is bathed in natural light and features bi-folding doors that connect seamlessly to the rear garden—ideal for indoor-outdoor living. A wood-burning stove enhances the inviting atmosphere of the living space.
In addition to the main living area, there’s a separate lounge and a dedicated study, along with a convenient downstairs shower room and W.C., making it well-suited for family life or remote working. The utility room adds practicality while maintaining an uncluttered living environment.
Underfloor heating throughout the ground floor contributes to year-round comfort and energy efficiency. Upstairs, five generously-sized double bedrooms offer flexibility for family use or guests; the principal suite includes an adjoining dressing room for added convenience.
The substantial forty-foot attic space provides further potential for conversion into additional living areas (subject to necessary permissions), with existing plumbing and power already installed.
The grounds enhance this property’s appeal significantly. Featuring low-maintenance landscaping in the south-facing garden perfect for outdoor enjoyment, it benefits from two paddocks which present various lifestyle opportunities such as equestrian use or play areas for children—these could also represent future development potential.
With parking available for six or more vehicles along with powered car port facilities and outbuildings equipped with electricity and water connections, this home offers great practicality. Additionally, there may be possibilities to develop a building plot within its grounds (pending planning consent).
Backing onto open countryside ensures a peaceful rural setting while still being close enough to local amenities in Helmdon.
