Exceptional Extended Family Home with Stunning Open-Plan Living, Sunroom & Versatile Accommodation | Flora Thompson Drive, Brackley
The Home
Situated on one of Brackley’s most desirable residential roads, this outstanding family home delivers a wonderful sense of space, style and versatility, perfectly suited to modern family life and entertaining. The property has been thoughtfully improved and beautifully maintained, creating a home that feels welcoming, spacious and special from the moment you step inside.
The spacious entrance hall sets the tone immediately, featuring a striking curved staircase, a large cloakroom and a useful storage cupboard. The downstairs W.C. is full of character, finished with a wooden countertop and Belfast-style sink, blending traditional charm with everyday practicality.
At the heart of the home sits the exceptional open-plan kitchen, a true focal point designed for both cooking and socialising. The space showcases a central island with breakfast bar, tiled splashbacks and an elegant combination of cream and navy cabinetry. Integrated appliances include raised Neff double ovens, a Bosch dishwasher, LG fridge freezer, large hob with extractor and extensive storage throughout. A particular highlight is the bespoke drinks area, complete with dual wine racks, built-in wine fridge and display shelving for glassware, creating a stylish space for entertaining or relaxing in the evenings.
The kitchen flows seamlessly into the impressive sunroom, flooded with natural light from a central skylight and wide bi-fold doors that open directly onto the garden. With tiled flooring, an eco-fuel burner and ample space for dining and lounge furniture, this wonderful room offers a perfect setting for everyday living and hosting alike.
A grand dining room is accessed from both the hallway and the sunroom, providing a fantastic space for more formal occasions. Wood flooring, a feature fireplace and generous proportions make this an inviting room for family gatherings and dinner parties.
To the front of the property, the main reception room, currently used as a piano room, offers a cosy yet stylish retreat. A large bay window fills the room with natural light, while built-in shelving flanks the media area, providing attractive storage and display space. This versatile room would equally suit use as a lounge, reading room or snug. Completing the ground floor is a well-appointed utility room with wooden worktops, inset sink, built-in storage, space for laundry appliances and side access to the garden. The boiler is neatly housed here. Underfloor heating runs through all tiled ground floor areas, adding comfort and efficiency.
The part-converted garage offers the best of both worlds, retaining a garage area with electric up-and-over door while also providing a versatile additional room currently used as a home office. This flexible space is ideal for remote working, hobbies or studio use.
Upstairs, the landing is bright and airy thanks to a long front-facing window and also benefits from a spacious airing cupboard with shelving and hanging space. The home offers a flexible four/five bedroom layout. The principal suite is accessed via a generous dressing room, which could alternatively be used as a fifth bedroom, creating a private and peaceful main bedroom arrangement. A second large double bedroom features bespoke fitted wardrobes and its own modern en-suite shower room with walk-in shower, heated towel rail, wash basin and W.C. There is a further stylish double bedroom and a comfortable single bedroom, currently used as a home office, ideal for growing families or home working. The family bathroom is fully tiled and fitted with a shower over bath, vanity unit with storage, W.C., wash basin, mirrored cabinet and heated towel rail.
The current owners have obtained planning permission to create an annexe attached to the rear of the utility room. Further details and plans are available upon request.
The Garden
The south-east facing wraparound garden is a true highlight of this exceptional home. Bi-fold doors from the sunroom open onto a generous patio area, perfect for alfresco dining and summer entertaining.
The garden continues with a well-kept lawn, mature planting, low walling and fencing that combine to create a private and tranquil setting. A pebbled seating area offers an additional outdoor zone, while access from the garden into the part-converted garage/home office adds further practicality.
