Property Details
Description
Named after its backdrop of Copper Beech trees, Copperleaf is a four double-bedroom, two-bathroom detached home, offering approximately 1,300 sq. ft. of accommodation over stepped levels. Designed to maximise its setting, it features a distinctive yet understated form that blends harmoniously with its surroundings. A double-height entry hall, positioned mid-level between the living space and lower-level bedrooms, creates a dramatic sense of arrival. It draws the eye through the building to the rear garden, where mature trees form a picturesque backdrop. The main living space, positioned at garden level, features a stunning open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area with a soaring double height ceiling. Expansive glazing floods the space with natural light, offering an uninterrupted view of the leafy surroundings. The design prioritises connection to nature, with natural materials with oak flooring and panelling and a soft, neutral palette enhancing the sense of warmth and calm. The lower-ground level houses three double bedrooms, ensuring a quiet and private retreat, alongside a family bathroom and utility room. The fourth bedroom, located on the upper level, provides flexibility as a study or additional living space. Copperleaf incorporates high levels of insulation, an MVHR ventilation system with heat recovery for energy-efficient climate control, and thermally efficient glazing. These features ensure year-round comfort while significantly reducing energy consumption.
The rear garden is designed as a natural extension of the home, offering a private courtyard setting framed by mature trees, including Copper Beech, Sequoia, and Lebanese Cedar, creating a rare and established feel for a new-build home. A wisteria covered backdrop adds to the charm, bringing seasonal colour and additional privacy. The property benefits from off-road parking for three vehicles, complete with an electric vehicle charging point, ensuring both convenience and future-proofed sustainability.
