Welcome to the impeccable and elegant finishing touches of Deers Leep, a detached 4-bedroom sustainable new-build home, situated in the peaceful village of Underbarrow, Kendal.
Designed with the modern family in mind, Deers Leep is flawless throughout with sleek open plan living, 4 en-suite bedrooms, effortless contemporary finishes in the form of underfloor heating, air source heat pump, triple glazing and a thick insulated construction making a home that is not only substantial but also sustainable and affordable to run.
Take the shared access driveway to the left and park in front of the large, attached garage, where there is ample space for visitors and residents. Local Lakeland stone has been married with a more modest Millboard composite cladding, evocative of the original farm buildings that stood here previously. Finished with a traditional slate roof and large glazing that reflect the surrounding countryside hues, settling it firmly into the landscape.
Make your way to the front door and step into the spacious hallway, ideal for welcoming guests and on busy mornings when getting the children ready for school.
Effortless, hardwearing and easy to maintain, large sleek ceramic grey tiles flow seamlessly through the downstairs complete with underfloor heating that warms throughout.
Follow the crisp flooring to the left and into the open-plan living space comprising a classic kitchen, dining and lounge. Light abounds from the glazing in the form of double doors and large picture windows that capture the peaceful exterior and make for an open and airy space.
It is an excellent place for hosting, where large gatherings will happen in abundance, but also a room that can be enjoyed on the day-to-day with a central dining table creating a natural divide between cooking and relaxing.
The high-spec kitchen that sits to one end of the expansive room boasts a large island with Neff induction hob and cooker hood, additional storage space, a wine fridge and seating for informal meals and homework. Upper and lower cabinetry allows for cooking paraphernalia and pantry goods to be stored next to the full-height built-in separate fridge and freezer. In addition, find a large sink with Quooker tap and waste disposal unit, integrated Neff microwave, oven, warming drawer and dishwasher close at hand.
Note the plug sockets that have been fitted with a busy home in mind - perhaps add a TV to the wall in the kitchen and a few comfy chairs.
To the other end of the room relax and hunker down into large sofas in front of the wood burner where families can come together, play games and watch movies.
Return to the hallway and take the first door into the utility room - an extension to the kitchen with Bosch washer and dryer, additional sink with water filter and ample cabinets to store coats, boots and bags. A door leads out to the garden creating a fantastic flow for laundry, gardening and retuning from walks, where muddy items can be dealt with easily.
Pop your head into the adjacent room to find a spot for guests to refresh and revive in the convenient downstairs loo with handmade solid teak vanity unit set under a stone basin. Finally, there is a versatile space that could be an office or toy room. Imagine everything in one place and simply closing the door to the mess.
Conveniently, the last door opens straight into the garage so there's no fear of the wet weather being a problem as you can park and walk straight into the home with ease.
Serene Slumber
The attention to detail continues up the elegant floating ash staircase, complete with glass balustrade, where here you can fully appreciate the lofty ceilings that entice you up to the first floor. Place a chair, to the right, at the top of the stairs beside the large glazed apertures that allow the light to flood onto the spacious landing and create a picture-perfect reading nook. Plush neutral carpets lead underfoot into the 4 double bedrooms.
Each capacious room, found through oak veneered solid fire doors, promises a peaceful slumber with those picturesque country village views that Cumbria is so well-known for, an abundance of space for freestanding or built-in cupboards (the choice is yours) and stunning Villeroy & Boch en-suites. Large walk-in showers, sleek contemporary floor to ceiling tiles, underfloor heating and elegant solid teak vanity units topped with ceramic basins make these en-suites something to shout about. The principal suite also boasts a dressing area and, in the bathroom, a freestanding tub to soak tired limbs and a double vanity for easy mornings.
Gardens and Grounds
Deers Leep is easy to maintain both inside and out with a garden that wraps the home. Newly planted shrubs will turn into hedgerows adding privacy, a manicured lawn makes for the ideal spot for picnics and bathing and BBQs can be savoured on the patio.
You have the opportunity here to make it your own by adding fencing, additional planting and pots filled with pretty seasonal flowers encouraging the wildlife to visit or keep it simple for easy upkeep.
The large garage with up an over electric door, offers plenty of storage, not just for vehicles but with so much space there is room for a workbench, bikes or other sporting and gardening equipment. It also houses the home's 'controls' for Wi-Fi, ground source heat pump and underfloor heating as well as an electric car charging point.
