A useful utility and boot room lead to the rear.

Adjacent is a library/guest room with built-in cabinetry and en suite room. A cozy snug with a feature bay window and flame-effect gas fire (Calor gas) provides the perfect retreat overlooking the garden. The lower floor offers a range of impressive lifestyle spaces. Off the spacious hallway, you’ll find a gym with a sauna, shower, and steam room, a dedicated media/cinema room with a sound studio, and a professional-grade golf simulator room. The first-floor landing stretches the depth of the house, leading to generous double bedrooms, including the primary suite, all with en suite bathrooms, with two of the rooms featuring dressing rooms. One of the rear-facing bedrooms enjoys a private balcony overlooking the garden. A further bedroom/office completes the first-floor accommodation. Outside Electric gates provide access to a spacious driveway, ample parking, a detached double garage, and a double cart-lodge with light and power.

The heated swimming pool, set slightly elevated, is surrounded by paving and complemented by a charming pool house complete with a kitchenette – perfect for summer entertaining. The gardens, predominantly laid to lawn, are framed with bush and flower borders, and a Mulberry tree stands as a nod to the home’s name, making this property an ideal haven for families or passionate gardeners alike.
