Welcome to Churt Place, a home where architectural poise meets effortless, intelligent living in a setting of absolute seclusion.

Elevate your standard of living

From its elevated, hilltop setting, Churt Place, a bright and effortlessly modern home commands both presence and peace: Set against a backdrop of trees, open to light, and designed to let the landscape in.

Where once a 1970s house stood, a bold new vision took shape, carefully deconstructing the past to make way for something entirely fresh. The result, completed in 2016, is a home that celebrates space and stillness, with a crisp white exterior, smart symmetry and an interior that flows with light and purpose and that is perfect for family living.

Behind the scenes at Churt Place

Beneath the timeless elegance of Churt Place lies a sophisticated infrastructure designed for seamless living, total comfort, and exceptional control. Every detail has been considered to ensure the home works beautifully around daily life – whether you’re hosting, relaxing, or away on travels.

A fully integrated Crestron control system brings together lighting, blinds, audio, and visual technology into one intuitive interface. Wall-mounted panels and rf remotes provide effortless local control, while the system can also be operated remotely via iPhone or iPad – giving you access to lighting, climate, and entertainment from anywhere in the world.

Lutron lighting sets the mood at the touch of a button, while motorised curtains and blinds adapt effortlessly to the changing light. Throughout the house, an extensive audio-visual distribution network delivers high-quality sound and screen entertainment to every key room, with support for multiple sources including Sky Q, Apple TV, and multimedia streaming services like Spotify and Tidal.

The dedicated home cinema is a standout feature: A 70” TV, projector with 120” screen, and immersive 7.2 surround sound are paired with electrically operated cinema seating and a starlit ceiling to bring movie magic home.

Climate comfort is assured year-round thanks to a suite of advanced systems. A ground source heat pump provides efficient heating and optional summer cooling, while a solar hot water system supports sustainable living and pool heating. A ventilation system in the lounge and cinema offers heat recovery, complementing an air source heat pump that contributes to cooling the home during warmer months.

Security and peace of mind are equally well considered. Electrically operated front and side gates include automatic lighting, while electric locking for the front and back doors can be controlled remotely. A fully serviced burglar alarm and comprehensive external CCTV system add further reassurance. The innovative Waterguard system automatically shuts off the water supply in the event of a leak – ideal for extended time away.

With 24 audio zones (including outdoor areas), and intelligent systems operating quietly in the background, Churt Place offers not just luxury, but the ease and elegance of a truly modern home.

Electric gates open to sweeping driveway, which curves around past the front of the home, where there is ample parking, over a rill water feature, and along the side of the home passing through a symmetrical tree-lined honour guard, before culminating at the impressive four-car garage with apartment complex above.

The breakfast room continues the relaxed, sociable feel, designed for everything from slow Sunday mornings to evening get-togethers. Two Miele wine fridges keep drinks perfectly chilled and close at hand, whether you're hosting or simply winding down at the end of the day.

Tucked just off the kitchen, the utility room keeps daily life running smoothly, with dedicated space for laundry and an additional fridge freezer for overflow essentials. With direct pedestrian access from the driveway, the utility room makes for a handy day-to-day entrance.

Warmth emanates from the inset-gas fire in the dining room, which flows off from the kitchen on the opposite side to the breakfast room. In winter, turn on the fire with a flick of a light switch and bring warmth to the party when wining and dining family and friends.

From the dining room, stairs lead down to the lower level of the home.

Bifolding doors seamlessly glide back to provide instant access from the sitting room to the sparkling waters of the swimming pool and terrace beyond. Spacious and serene, with wood panelling hugging the curving wall beneath the library above, visible beyond the glass balustrade, the sitting room is a work of art made for everyday living.

Classic comfort emanates from the contemporary wood-burning stove. A family favourite, for both entertaining and relaxation with a concealed television that ascends when required, the sitting room is a space for all seasons, cosy and warm in winter, light and airy throughout the summer months, with instant access to the pool.

Poolside pleasures

Step outside and the world expands into six and a half acres of sunlight, birdsong and a landscape designed to relax, recharge and celebrate.

Softened by thoughtfully planted trees and edged with a generous stone terrace, the lawns are the perfect place for lounging, dining or simply soaking up the peace.

Practicality has its place here too. A rainwater harvesting system with bore hole top-up keeps the garden irrigation flowing, while patio speakers, garden lighting, and even lightning conductors ensure comfort and safety whatever the season. The automatic gates, controlled remotely or from inside the house, complete the sense of privacy and effortless living.
