The kitchen is arguably the highlight of this impressive family home, an alluring hub of the home, featuring bi-fold doors that open directly onto the deck and offer expansive vistas of the rear garden and countryside beyond. It boasts an extensive collection of bespoke solid oak and light and dark grey cabinetry and high-end integrated appliances include a full-size Bosch refrigerator and freezer, an integrated Bosch dishwasher, and two conveniently placed Bosch ovens. A sophisticated Bosch combination electric and steam oven with app control, a stunning Silestone worktop with twin Belfast sinks and a Quooker tap providing instant filtered cold, hot, and sparkling water along with boiling water, finished with elegant tiled splashbacks. Natural light floods the kitchen diner, particularly illuminating the central island, which also features a Silestone work surface with a Bosch five-ring gas hob, ample under-counter storage, and a practical butcher block extension. Also within the kitchen is a useful walk-in pantry cupboard, fitted to the same high standard as the kitchen and includes further wall cabinetry, inset oak trays and open shelving. To the end of the kitchen there is a tiled snug area which also overlooks the rear garden, an ideal retreat for the kids. Adjacent to the kitchen there is a separate wine room/prep area, further fitted with a collection of oak units, alongside two integrated full height wine fridges, a Belfast sink and oak work surfaces. This room also provides further coat storage and there is a door out to the side of the property.
Located off the hallway, the well-appointed laundry room offers generous storage, including integrated laundry bins, a discreetly concealed central heating boiler, designated space for stacked washing and drying machines, durable oak countertops with tiled splashbacks, a Belfast sink, and a mixer tap with a hose attachment.
Completing this level are a conveniently located guest WC, a dedicated study to the front of the property and a private home gym with bi-folding doors out onto the decking area.

Ascending to the first floor, a light and airy landing with a contemporary glass balustrade overlooks the welcoming entrance hall. This spacious landing serves as a central hub, providing access to the various bedrooms and the main bathroom, as well as the staircase leading to the second floor.
The principal bedroom is a welcoming retreat, complete with its own balcony displaying stunning views over the countryside beyond and a sizable walk-through dressing room, fitted with an array of wardrobes and drawers to either side, leading to a generous en suite bathroom. The en suite holds a freestanding bath, a substantial twin sink vanity unit, a discreet low flush WC, and a fully tiled double shower equipped with both a rainfall showerhead and a handheld attachment.
The stylish family bathroom presents a modern five-piece suite, comprising a fluted freestanding bath with a mixer tap and handheld shower, a concealed cistern WC, twin countertop wash basins mounted on contrasting wall-hung vanity units, a spacious walk-in double shower and two warming heated towel rails.
Two additional bedroom suites at first floor level each boast walk-through luxury dressing rooms and three piece en suite shower rooms. The fourth bedroom also enjoys its own en suite facilities, while the fifth bedroom is conveniently located opposite the main family bathroom.
A staircase leads to the second-floor games room, which incorporates built-in storage solutions and houses approximately half of the property's hot water cylinder system.

Adjoining the games room is a dedicated home cinema room, complete with eight reclining seats, Kef surround sound system, a large 120-inch screen and projector, alongside a built-in bar area with storage below.

Outside
Access to the property is granted via automated double electric gates that open onto a driveway leading past the manicured front lawn, the garages, and a secure bike store, culminating in a convenient turning circle directly in front of the residence. Well-established ornamental beds and borders provide a vibrant display of colour throughout the year.
A substantial quadruple garage offers excellent utility, equipped with electric heating, power outlets, lighting, durable rubber flooring, and twin automated electric roller doors. Significant storage space is also available in the loft space above.
A generously sized storage building provides excellent space for storing bicycles and garden equipment, with attractive timber cladding and a sustainable living roof that blends seamlessly with the garden.
A particularly appealing feature of Woodlands is the rear garden, which is beautifully overlooked from the covered deck extending from the rear of the property.
