Description

No expense has been spared and no detail overlooked in the creation of this stunning and technically advanced contemporary residence. It was originally a Wesleyan Mission Hall built in 1869 but has been extended and completely redesigned with underfloor heating throughout, as a unique property with leisure and entertainment in mind. The property is located in the charming hamlet of Ewell Minnis, on the edge of the Alkham Valley in the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and nestles in more than half an acre of grounds. On a 0.601 of an acre plot, it is approached via a pair of imposing solid wood automatic gates that open onto a very spacious driveway, bordered by a lawn with a charming circular lily pond, that leads to the double garage with remote control doors and the contemporary front door. This opens into a wide corridor with hard wearing luxury commercial vinyl sheet flooring and access to a large double bedroom with a high vaulted ceiling, an original stained glass window and wiring for air conditioning. The heart of the home is the vast and impressive light and bright family living space with large seating and dining areas, two sets of wide patio doors to the fabulous terrace, two lantern skylights, automatic blinds, air conditioning and a cross beam. The attractive German kitchen includes units with under worktop lighting as well as mood lighting that ranges from high level lighting for cooking to diffused lighting for dinner parties. The units house a Bora induction hob with a downdraft extractor and additional extractor facilities, two built in ovens, a combi microwave, a full height larder fridge, a wine cooler and a dishwasher as well as a Quooker tap for boiling, iced and fizzy water. There is also a very large and concealed walk-in larder with wired shelving and a fitted utility room with a water softener and loft access. Double sliding doors open into the extremely well-equipped and vaulted ceiling cinema/lounge with excellent cinema seats, an intelligent lighting system with various mood lighting options including theatre lighting. There is air conditioning and black automatic blinds on the windows that come into operation when the room is used as a cinema. However it is actually triple aspect with a trapezoid window and doors to the terrace so it can also be used as a separate sitting room. Roca sanitaryware can be found in the luxury family bathroom that includes a bath and a separate walk-in shower as well as heated mirrors with automatic lights. There are four further double bedrooms including one currently used as a dressing room and another as a study with access to a boarded attic. There is a large double with patio doors to the terrace, a balustraded mezzanine floor above the ensuite shower room and it is wired for air conditioning. The stunning, dual aspect main bedroom has a high vaulted ceiling with a trapezoid window, automatic blinds, air conditioning, a gorgeous oval bath adjacent to the patio doors that open onto the terrace and swimming pool as well as a large dressing room and an ensuite double shower with heated mirrors. Outside the superb porcelain terrace wraps around much of the property and includes gable lighting and numerous electric sockets so you never have to worry about extension leads and makes a great place to sit and relax looking over the very quiet and secluded garden. The terrace is bordered by a vast lawn surrounded by impressive trees and shrubs with rainwater soakaways and water taps at various external locations so there is no need for hosepipes. The terrace leads round to the fabulous swimming pool, which is surrounded by a glass and aluminium balustrade, so is very safe for children and pets and it is heated by an energy efficient air source pump. The energy efficiency continues as the hot water is heated by discreetly hidden solar panels that also generate a level of income. A  white limestone patio interspersed with paving slabs leads to the external entertainment area with its porcelain terrace and amazing stainless steel outdoor kitchen with porcelain work tops and full power.  There is a smoker,  a Draco barbecue grill and additional cooking facilities. There is a superb insulated cabin with two sets of patio doors to the terrace, a pine interior, a large and well-equipped bar with a fridge and a spacious seating area as well as radiators, a log burner and intelligent lighting. As well as the double garage, there is off road parking for numerous vehicles, a gym/office and a tractor mower shed as well as a charming summerhouse with a gravel patio. The property has hard wired WiFi everywhere inside and outside the property, there are numerous CCTV cameras around the house and grounds, alarm systems, underfloor heating in many of the rooms and intelligent lighting throughout the house, terrace and entertainment areas. All the systems are controlled by an app on your mobile device so you have remote control access from anywhere in the world.
