Mayfield is a truly exceptional and versatile family home that has been thoughtfully extended and meticulously refurbished. Discreetly set back from Glasshouse Lane behind a generous gravelled driveway, the property immediately commands attention with its handsome red-brick elevations, elegant portico entrance and beautifully maintained grounds extending to a generous plot.
The accommodation extends to in excess of 3,400 sq ft across three floors and is complemented by a wealth of distinctive spaces designed for modern family life, from a spectacular games room and glazed garden room to a separate wing that is currently operated as a successful business but offers compelling potential for reconfiguration (subject to necessary consents) as a self-contained annexe, multi-generational accommodation or holiday let - complete with its own private courtyard.
Ground Floor
The property is entered via a welcoming reception hall that sets the tone for the quality of the finish found throughout. The sitting room is a generous and characterful space, featuring French doors leading out to the garden and excellent proportions that make it equally suited to relaxed family evenings or more formal entertaining.
Adjacent to the sitting room is a well-appointed study, again featuring a fireplace and sash windows framing views across the grounds, an inspiring space for those working from home.
At the heart of the ground floor is a recently refurbished and beautifully appointed kitchen, dining and family room. The kitchen has been fitted with a high-quality range of contemporary cabinetry and integrated appliances, combining both practicality and style. The space opens seamlessly into a generous family dining and sitting area beneath a striking roof lantern that floods the room with natural light throughout the day. Sliding doors lead directly out to the rear terrace and garden, creating an effortless indoor-outdoor connection ideal for family life and entertaining alike. A separate utility room provides further practical convenience.
From the kitchen and family room, a glazed garden room with an impressive fully glazed orangery roof acts as a stunning transitional space, connecting the rear terrace to the courtyard and the main house to the games room.
The games room is a spectacular entertaining space of considerable proportions, with large built-in display cabinetry, a separate seating area, a shower room and sliding doors leading to a private walled courtyard. On its own, the games room can comfortably hold a full-size pool table and has the ability to be further extended into the garden room through bi-folding doors for larger gathering and to connect the space to the rear terrace. This suite of interconnected rooms and outdoor spaces creates a truly exceptional flow of accommodation, perfect for those who love to entertain on a grand scale.
Home Business or Annexe Potential
Adjacent to the games room with its own independent external access is a separate reception and utility space, currently operated as a successful beauty and hair salon. With elegant herringbone flooring and professional salon fittings, this space lends itself perfectly to a variety of alternative uses.
Combining this space with the adjoining games room, which has its own external entrance, private courtyard and en suite facilities, presents an outstanding opportunity to create a one-bedroom annexe, semi-independent accommodation for a dependent relative, or a high-quality holiday let with excellent income potential, subject to the necessary consents.
First Floor
The first floor provides four well-proportioned bedrooms, each individually styled and offering generous proportions. The principal first floor bedroom is beautifully presented with built-in wardrobes and an ensuite shower room.
A second generous double bedroom on this floor boasts large sash windows framing views out over the garden. This bedroom, along with the two further bedrooms on this floor, is served by both a charming family bathroom with a freestanding roll-top bath and a separate shower room, both beautifully appointed.
Second Floor
Occupying the entire second floor is the principal bedroom suite a private retreat of exceptional quality. The bedroom is a generously proportioned room with dual-aspect windows, charming eaves detailing and a separate dressing area. It is complemented by a striking ensuite bathroom featuring an intricate patchwork of decorative encaustic tiles, a freestanding roll-top clawfoot bath and skylight above. A built-in nook provides additional sleeping or sitting space, making this suite as versatile as it is beautiful.
Outside
The grounds at Mayfield are nothing short of spectacular, offering a series of distinctly different outdoor spaces that together create an exceptional setting rarely found within this sought-after residential address.
To the front, a generous gravelled driveway provides ample parking for four or more vehicles and creates an impressive first impression. The octagonal UPVC summerhouse is a charming feature, perfectly positioned as a garden retreat or reading room.
The grounds are arranged across several distinct zones, flowing seamlessly from one to the next. A large stone-paved terrace runs along the rear of the house, providing an ideal space for al fresco dining and relaxed outdoor entertaining. Beyond, a lawned garden is bordered by mature planting, established trees and well-stocked beds, creating a wonderfully private and tranquil setting. A charming fishpond with water feature adds a calming focal point, while a children's play area, complete with climbing frame and slide, ensures the garden is as practical as it is beautiful.
The cobbled courtyard to the side of the property, enclosed within warm red-brick walls, provides an atmospheric and intimate entertaining space ideal for year-round outdoor dining.
