Exceptional Five Bedroom Stone-Built Contemporary Country Home Set Within Approximately 0.75 Acres with Paddocks, Development Potential and Peaceful Countryside Setting | Bodkins, Helmdon
The Home
Bodkins is a home that has been designed with flair and imagination. Built by the current owners just five years ago, this beautiful stone-built residence combines timeless materials with modern efficiency, resulting in a home that feels both impressive and welcoming from the moment you arrive.
Approached via a private drive and cul-de-sac, the property immediately stands out with its attractive exterior. Stepping inside, a wide and inviting entrance hall sets the tone, with a sense of light and space that continues throughout.
At the heart of the home lies a striking open plan kitchen, living and dining space, designed for modern living and effortless entertaining. This expansive room is flooded with natural light and opens beautifully onto the rear garden through bi-folding doors, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. A wood burning stove adds warmth and character to the living area.
In addition to the main living space, the property also benefits from a separate living room, a dedicated study, and a downstairs shower room with W.C., offering further versatility for family life and working from home.
A separate utility room, complete with additional kitchen space, adds practicality while keeping the main living areas refined and uncluttered.
Underfloor heating runs throughout the ground floor, enhancing both comfort and efficiency, while the layout flows naturally between spaces, making the home as functional as it is elegant.
Upstairs, five generously sized double bedrooms provide excellent flexibility for family life and guests. The principal suite is particularly impressive, with the added benefit of an adjoining dressing room.
Impressive forty foot attic, fully boarded with power and with plumbing for radiators. Reinforced ceiling to accommodate possible staircase, providing conversion opportunities subject to the necessary consent.
The Grounds
Set within approximately three quarters of an acre, the grounds are a defining feature of this home. The south-facing garden has been designed to be both low maintenance and highly enjoyable, providing the perfect setting for outdoor dining, entertaining or simply unwinding in the sun.
Beyond the formal garden, the property benefits from two paddocks, opening up a range of lifestyle opportunities. Whether for equestrian use, children’s outdoor space or longer-term potential, this is a rare and valuable addition.
Backing onto open countryside, the setting is wonderfully peaceful, with a true sense of rural living.
Further enhancing the practicality of the home, there is parking for six or more vehicles, a car port with power, and additional power and water connected to the outbuildings, along with power to the front gate.
There is also possible potential for a building plot within the grounds, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
