Sarum Lion Road, Palgrave

Step inside this utterly bespoke, fully refurbished detached home where architectural finesse and exceptional design fuse seamlessly to deliver a bold, modern lifestyle statement. Every inch has been thoughtfully curated to create an elegant yet functional environment that truly sets this home apart.

You're welcomed into an oversized reception hall with natural light spilling across pale-toned walls and a feature staircase, crafted from slatted oak—floating visually while anchoring the space with style. This central axis leads you into two distinct reception areas: A living room with concealed sliding doors for intimate evenings, and a separate family room designed with flexibility in mind.

Bi-fold doors stretch wide into the adjoining garden room, where full-height windows wrap around the sides and a glazed roof showers the space with natural light. The monochrome palette and slate feature wall offer a modern edge—yet the space remains inviting and bright, creating a compelling juxtaposition between cool minimalism and warmth.

The heart of the home lies in its spectacular kitchen/dining suite—a true showstopper. Designed with entertainers in mind, the dual-island layout provides a sleek, functional flow, while plinth lighting glows softly beneath handleless cabinetry. Quartz worktops wrap around the room, integrating seamlessly with premium Siemens appliances, including an induction hob set beneath a ceiling extractor. Sliding doors at both ends allow light and air to flow freely, opening out to the garden and blending indoor-outdoor living effortlessly. There’s also direct access to the side garden, allowing for flexibility in entertaining or relaxed family evenings.

Completing the ground floor is a smartly designed utility/shower room, fully fitted with hidden laundry storage, a walk-in shower, mirrored cabinetry and rear garden access—ideal for returning from outdoor activities or simply washing up after a sunny afternoon in the garden.

Upstairs, the accommodation is equally impressive. The principal bedroom suite is the definition of indulgent design—divided into four zones that include a central walk-in wardrobe, 'his & hers' rainfall showers, a dramatic bathroom area with freestanding tub, and twin vanities flanking a picture window.

Bi-fold doors open out onto a private balcony with elevated countryside views—an inspiring spot for morning coffee or evening reflection. Three further double bedrooms continue the theme of stylish comfort, each offering generous proportions and plenty of natural light, serviced by a sleek family bathroom with walk-in shower and contemporary fittings.

Outside, the lifestyle offering continues. A gravel driveway provides ample parking for multiple vehicles, including a high-speed electric vehicle charging point, powered by 3-phase electricity. The rear garden is an oasis of calm, fully enclosed with manicured lawns, curated borders, and a paved terrace perfect for summer dining or weekend lounging.

Quietly positioned yet supremely private, this home delivers on every level—from aesthetic to amenity—offering a rare opportunity to own a truly one-of-a-kind contemporary property that balances design excellence with everyday luxury. Viewing is not just recommended; it’s essential.
