Designed by renowned London practice Nick Baker Architects, this is an exceptional contemporary residence set within a private 1.65 acre woodland setting in the heart of the Chilterns. Hidden behind secure automated gates and approached via a tree-lined driveway, the property enjoys outstanding privacy, seclusion and architectural distinction with energy efficiency and sustainability in mind. Constructed in 2016, the residence extends to approximately 4,845 sq ft, including ancillary buildings, and has been thoughtfully designed to create an effortless relationship between the home and its natural surroundings. <br/>A defining feature of the property is its striking pavilion-style design. The accommodation is arranged across two distinct wings connected by a broad central hallway, linked by a subtle four-step transition that enhances the flow between the social and private areas of the home. From the moment of arrival, the architect's vision is evident, with a raised sandstone terrace leading to impressive double entrance doors and carefully considered sightlines extending through both the interior spaces and surrounding landscape. <br/>Designed to maximise natural light, volume and connection to the woodland garden beyond.
