South-west-facing views across Kingfisher Lake define Sunset House, a contemporary five-bedroom home with direct lake frontage and approximately 1.6 acres of gardens and private woodland. Broad terraces and extensive glazing make the most of the waterside setting, while the interiors extend to approximately 5,547 sq. ft. across two floors. The ground floor centres on a reception and dining room stretching more than 55 feet, with ceilings rising to approximately 13 feet. Pale timber flooring runs throughout, and full-height glazing draws the lake into view from the seating and dining areas. Sliding doors open onto the broad timber deck, extending the space outdoors for summer lunches and evenings beside the water. Adjoining the reception room, the kitchen has dark cabinetry, integrated appliances and a substantial central island with breakfast seating. Windows frame views across the lake and surrounding greenery, with further doors opening onto the terrace. A separate pantry and utility room provide additional storage and laundry space, with access to the side garden. A TV room and a separate lake-facing study sit at the opposite end of the ground floor, alongside a guest cloakroom. Five ensuite bedrooms are arranged on the first floor. The principal suite has a generous bedroom with wraparound windows and a private lake-facing balcony. A bank of fitted wardrobes separates the sleeping and dressing areas, while the bathroom has twin basins, a freestanding bath and a separate shower. Three further bedrooms open onto balconies overlooking the water, including one with a broad terrace extending around the side of the house. The remaining bedroom is currently arranged as a children’s bunk room, with four berths. A long private driveway leads through the grounds to the house, with ample parking for several cars. Lawns and private woodland create a leafy approach, while the lake-facing garden is given over to approximately 1,000 sq. ft. of timber decking arranged over two levels. There is space for outdoor dining and seating immediately beside the water, with open views across Kingfisher Lake.
