THE PROPERTY
Superbly situated with views over rolling countryside in the charming village of Sutton-On-The-Hill, Ashbourne, is this unique four-bedroom detached timber frame home of laminated post and beam construction, imported from Finland, being completed and signed off in 2018.  

The residence offers a blend of modern living and natural beauty. Set on approximately an acre of land, the grounds were previously used as an organic market garden, with established fruit trees and a borehole water supply that enhances its appeal.

The entrance door opens into a welcoming hallway with natural wood walls and doors leading off to a modern fitted cloakroom and the heart of the property: a stunning open plan lounge, dining and kitchen area. The area features floor-to-ceiling windows and doors that flood the space with natural light and provide spectacular views of the picturesque countryside, along with a central timber staircase. A glazed door leads out onto the southwest-facing veranda, where you can relax and enjoy the serene surroundings.

There is also a utility room off the kitchen area that offers an opportunity to create a sauna.

The first floor is dedicated to comfort, showcasing four double bedrooms. The principal bedroom comes complete with a private balcony and a walk-in wardrobe, ensuring ample storage with the potential to redevelop this space into an en-suite. A modern family bathroom completes the accommodation on the first floor.

OUTSIDE
To the front of the property is shared access from the road leading to a private driveway providing ample parking for multiple vehicles, along with a detached garage.  The home is further enhanced by a reliable water supply from an underground aquifer, accessed via an electric pump from a borehole 110 meters below the surface.

This remarkable property is a must-see, offering a perfect blend of contemporary design and tranquil country living, making it an ideal choice for families seeking a peaceful retreat.
