With open views to the rear and a luxurious finish throughout, this exceptional home offers refined country living within easy reach of both London and Cambridge.

Double doors open into a spacious entrance hall, where a bespoke oak under-stairs wine cellar immediately sets the tone for the craftsmanship and attention to detail found throughout. Marble flooring runs through much of the ground floor, including the showstopping open-plan kitchen.

Fitted by Handmade Kitchens of Christchurch, this beautifully designed space features high-end cabinetry with engraved drawers and integrated chopping boards, marble worktops, and a full suite of Miele appliances. A Quooker tap provides instant boiling and sparkling water, while an InSinkErator and expansive bifold doors make the kitchen as functional as it is stylish, ideal for entertaining and everyday living.

Open to the kitchen, the sitting room is both elegant and inviting, centred around an EcoSmart bioethanol fireplace. For more formal occasions, the triple-aspect dining room provides a sophisticated setting, complete with a roof lantern and a bespoke wet bar, also by Handmade Kitchens of Christchurch, featuring an integrated dual-zone wine cooler. A further reception room offers flexibility, currently used as a generous study but equally suited to a snug or playroom.

The utility room and cloakroom mirror the home’s exacting standards, with bespoke cabinetry and premium fittings including Perrin & Rowe and Gessi taps. The double garage has also been finished to an exceptional standard, complete with underfloor heating, plastered walls, and insulated powered doors, making it equally suited as a gym or traditional vehicle storage.

Upstairs, all four bedrooms are thoughtfully designed, each served by a luxurious family bathroom or en suite. The principal suite is a standout feature, with a vaulted ceiling, apex windows framing countryside views, and French doors leading onto a private balcony, perfect for a quiet morning coffee. A generous dressing room and indulgent en suite add to the sense of retreat, with features including a double-ended bath, integrated bathroom television, and premium finishes. Notably, the bathroom vanity worktops are made from Italian Carrara marble, adding to the elegance.

Throughout the home, thoughtful details elevate everyday living, from dropped cornicing with feature lighting to smart home controls, underfloor heating, a water softener, and high-quality marble-effect tiling in all wet areas.

Set well back from the road, the home offers a generous gravel driveway for ample parking. The rear garden enjoys excellent sun throughout the day and offers beautiful sunset views across open countryside, creating a truly idyllic setting for modern rural living.

Seller Insight
We had the incredible privilege of designing and building this home ourselves, a true labour of love that reflects the way we wanted to live: close to nature, connected as a family, and surrounded by a warm, welcoming community.

From the moment we found this plot, we knew it had something special. The wide-open countryside views, the peace and quiet, and the sunsets, oh, the sunsets. Every evening, the back garden lights up in soft golds and pinks, a view we’ve never once taken for granted. It’s been our daily escape, a moment of calm at the end of each day.

We designed the house with comfort, practicality, and sustainability in mind. In the winter, the mess-free fireplace creates a cosy heart to the home, perfect for curling up and enjoying the season without the fuss. Year-round, it’s a peaceful and energy-efficient space we’re proud of.

The light-filled orangery dining room and adjoining bar area were designed with hosting in mind. Slightly tucked away from the rest of the home, it’s the perfect space for entertaining friends and family, offering both openness and a sense of privacy. We’ve shared so many special evenings here, dinners, celebrations, and long, laughter-filled nights.

At the centre of our day-to-day life is our beautiful kitchen. It truly is the heart of the home, a place where we cook, catch up, and enjoy everyday life together as a family.

Upstairs, our bedroom suite is our personal haven. Inspired by years of ski trips and the time we spent living in Switzerland, the space feels like a retreat. The balcony lets us soak in the beauty of the countryside, the silence, the wind turbines turning gently in the distance, and, again, those unforgettable sunsets.

Graveley itself has been a joy to be part of. It’s a tight-knit, family-oriented village full of spirit and warmth. There’s a monthly social night at the local pub, seasonal events, and thoughtful traditions like the Halloween children’s trail and community beer festivals. Our neighbours have become true friends, and the sense of belonging here is something very special.

We are only selling because work is taking us away for the foreseeable future. It’s a bittersweet decision, but we feel this home deserves a family who will love it as much as we have, who will fill it with laughter, warmth, and new memories.
This house has been our dream home, and now it’s ready for its next chapter.
