Gloucester Place, Windsor, Berkshire, SL4

Set within meticulously maintained gardens, Jasper’s Hyde is a sensational family home offering light and spacious accommodation arranged over three floors. The house has been the subject of sympathetic extension and a comprehensive refurbishment programme to embrace the requirements of modern-day living ? a testament to the current owners’ obvious design flair. Features of note include under-floor heating in the kitchen and bathrooms, air-conditioning in the principal bedroom, the second floor bedroom and kitchen, Cat 5 cabling, a fully monitored alarm, and security cameras.

The covered entrance porch leads to a light-filled reception hall featuring wood flooring that extends across a number of ground floor rooms, providing practicality and a sense of harmony to the living area. Double doors open to the elegant sitting room with an open fireplace and multi-aspect views over the pristine garden; a further set of double doors open out to the extensive kitchen/breakfast room which is undoubtedly a fine feature of the property. Due to a roof lantern and corner bi-folding doors opening out to the south-facing terrace, the room is bursting with light. The dining, social and kitchen zones seamlessly interconnect and offer ultimate style with neutral décor, a curved peninsular, integrated appliances, and sleek cabinets; there is also an adjoining, practical utility room. The family room/gym offers flexibility for family needs and an equally well-proportioned study provides space and convenience for those working from home.

Situated on the first-floor is the principal suite comprising a bedroom with double doors opening out to a roof terrace, a stylish en suite shower room and a dressing room. The three further bedrooms on this floor are equally as light and well-proportioned with a modern family bathroom offering both bath and shower options. The generous second-floor suite features a vaulted ceiling and an on-trend en suite shower room.
