About the property
Occupying a superb plot in the highly regarded St James Close, a mature private road renowned for its individually designed homes, Haere Mai is a substantial detached residence enjoying an exceptional degree of privacy. Positioned towards the end of this exclusive cul-de-sac, the property commands delightful views across adjoining farmland and mature woodland, while being moments from the heart of Birdham village.
The property has been thoughtfully extended and enhanced with a loft conversion to create a versatile family home offering generous and well-balanced accommodation.
A welcoming reception hall provides an impressive introduction. At the heart of the home is a stunning open-plan kitchen, dining and family room, flooded with natural light and designed for modern living. The contemporary kitchen is beautifully appointed with an extensive central island, sleek quartz work surfaces and quality cabinetry, while the adjoining utility room offers further practicality with direct access to the garden. The dining area enjoys an immediate connection to the outside, making it ideal for entertaining, whilst the dual-aspect sitting room provides a relaxing retreat, complete with a wood-burning stove. A generously proportioned dual-aspect study offers an excellent work-from-home space or additional reception room.
An inner hallway with attractive herringbone parquet flooring leads to the ground floor bedroom accommodation. The dual-aspect principal suite enjoys fitted wardrobes and a four-piece en suite. A second double bedroom is served by a family bathroom. The first floor, created through a skilfully designed loft conversion, provides two further double bedrooms, both served by a shower room, complimented by a spacious landing.
Outside and to the front of the property, a substantial gravel driveway provides extensive parking and leads to a detached double garage with a pitched clay-tiled roof and electrically operated door.
Gardens and outbuildings
Outside, the gardens are a particular highlight, wrapping around the property to create a series of beautifully landscaped spaces offering colour, privacy and year-round interest. An extensive Indian sandstone terrace adjoins the living accommodation, complemented by established planting, generous lawns and attractive brick-and-flint walling. A charming timber garden room, currently arranged as a craft studio, provides valuable additional space.
Beyond a wrought iron gate lies a delightful ’secret garden’ – a tranquil retreat enjoying uninterrupted views across open fields to mature woodland, with a secluded brick-paved terrace perfectly positioned to enjoy the setting.
