Ensconced within just over 2.5 acres of capacious gated grounds Chilworth House proffers a stunning sense of tranquillity and exclusivity. Behind the handsome double fronted facade of this superior Chobham residence a beautifully curated contemporary residence unfolds over a magnificent 5958sq ft with breathtaking aplomb. Superb light wells, a sweeping helical staircase, cinema and media/games rooms, a wine store and gymnasium have all been impeccably incorporated, while outside a luxurious self-contained barn conversion offering a further 2002sq ft generates prestigious secondary accommodation.
Immediately hinting at the superior lifestyle on offer, high secure double gates sweep open to reveal the impeccable grounds and gardens of Chilworth House. Peppered and framed by elegantly planted flowerbeds and conifers that subtly delineate the exemplary barn conversion from the main house, an expansive gravel and brick paved driveway stretches up to the double fronted facade of an outstanding home that exudes a graceful sense of understated luxury.
Sage green window frames lend a subtle contrast to the rustic tones scattered throughout the stretcher brickwork, while a distinguished covered doorway welcomes you into a central entrance hall where the sweeping curves of a helical staircase lend a stunning introduction.
On the ground floor a trio of superior reception rooms and a refined double aspect study unfold around you creating a wealth of spacious in which to relax and entertain. The pared-back aesthetic that flows cohesively throughout enhances the feeling of calm and restfulness while the rich tones of feature heritage hues, polished tiled floors to hallway and timber detailing lend a warming balance to a succession of light filled rooms.
With an expanse of bi-fold doors filling your gaze with the gardens and uniting you with the south-west facing terracing, the interconnecting drawing room and kitchen/dining room are equally suited for family life and days spent entertaining. The considerable double aspect drawing room has the inviting focal point of a wood burner within the clean lines of its chimney breast and a discerning dash of colour from British Racing Green accent walls. Its commendable dimensions open into an enviable kitchen/dining room where a polished tile floor runs underfoot, painted Shaker cabinetry houses a wealth of first class Siemens appliances and a central island has plentiful bar stool seating.
Across the entrance hall an additional family room gives you every excuse to spend time together and the study supplies a peaceful haven when working from home.
Beautifully illuminated by the considered use of light wells that run along its sides, the lower ground floor is a triumph. A supremely well appointed and tastefully designed wine store creates a natural hub for evenings spent in the cinema room and a prodigious media/games room has ample space to accommodate a full size snooker table. Twin sets of French doors open onto the first light well from the media/games room, while french doors connect the other to a superb gymnasium. A deluxe bedroom suite is ideal for overnight guests or staff and a fully fitted utility room perfectly complements the kitchen.
Follow the captivating curves of the central staircase up to the first floor and you'll discover a wonderful galleried landing that effortlessly heightens the sense of light and space that flows around you. Beneath high sloping ceilings four double bedrooms echo the consistent design themes of the lower floors while double aspect windows and skylights permit a lovely degree of light to filter gently in. With french doors opening onto a Juliet balcony the principal bedroom allows you to admire the natural beauty of gardens from the comfort of your own bed. Its fitted dressing room provides storage without encroaching on the aesthetics and a sophisticated en suite is arranged in a discerning tile setting. A second bedroom has a luxury en suite of its own, while the additional two rooms share a fabulous family bathroom with an indulgently large rainfall shower and a bathtub beautifully inset into the bay window.

Adding a striking contemporary twist to its timber clad facade, the industrial design themes that feature within the detached barn conversion generate a stunning modern day home that architecture lovers will adore. Sleek and stylish, its fluid layout sees a spacious living/dining room connected to a mezzanine kitchen via open tread wrought iron staircases that give an open plan yet delineated feel to the space. Giving a host of possibilities for self-contained guest accommodation or as a secondary income, this inspired annexe includes an additional family room, double bedroom and shower room on the ground floor, while upstairs there is a full width reception room and a marvellous main bedroom with a large and utterly sleek en suite that has a wetroom shower, double ended bath tub and sultry tiling.
Whilst the barn conversion has its own dedicated parking area, patio and idyllic garden, the breathtaking gardens of the main house provide a wonderful rural oasis of their own. The trio of bi-fold doors on the ground floor makes it effortlessly easy for the landscaped terracing to become an easy flowing extension of its impressive foot print giving an idyllic spot for al fresco dining. The vast lawns and greenery that stretch out before you add to the tranquil feel giving you ample chance to take a stroll in the summer sun, feel your shoulders relax and sit in the dappled shade of ancient trees. A gravelled topiary bordered path adds a classical feel to the natural landscaping, while a tractor shed and log store sit discreetly out of view.
