Rowley Fields Farm, an unlisted marvel, is built of rendered brick adorned
with a slate roof. Since its acquisition in 2006, the current owners have
meticulously renovated, modernised, and extended the house, transforming the
grounds into a breathtaking masterpiece.
The house is a haven of modern conveniences, fully automated with Creston
Control systems, two media servers, DAB radio distribution, Sky HD, Freeview,
and a Niko Lighting system. Each room is data hardwired, a testament to the
seamless integration of technology. The woodwork, a symphony of oak panelling,
doors, architraves, skirting, and cornicing, is complemented by brass
ironmongery.
The bathrooms, WC’s, floor and wall tiling throughout are crafted from marble,
limestone, or travertine, while the worktops are of natural stone. All
sanitary ware is designer, a nod to the elegance and sophistication that
defines this residence.
The main house, garaging, and annex collectively span 13, 000 square feet,
nestled within 12 acres of private, landscaped grounds. The approach to the
house is a grand affair. Automated ornate wrought iron gates, flanked by
sweeping rendered walls, afford privacy and stature, while the CCTV system,
accessible from any television screen throughout the house, ensures security.
The gravel drive, flanked by lavender, leads to a roundel with a central
fountain, a welcoming sight for residents and guests alike. A stone pathway
ushers you to the front door, located on the east side of the house, opening
onto an elegant, oak - panelled entrance hall with a central staircase ahead. To
the right of the hall lies the drawing room, complete with a fireplace and
wood floors, leading to an office and an ornate library, which connects back
to the hall. A cloakroom, incorporating 18 carat gold fittings from Gessi’s
Mimi range, and a snug are also accessible from the hall.
The rear of the house, designed for open plan family living, consists of a
beautiful bespoke Mark Wilkinson kitchen, a formal dining area, and a garden
room. Each of these spaces offers wonderful views of the grounds and lake
beyond, while a Bower and Wilkins speaker system ensures an immersive auditory
experience. The garden room features an original well at its core, glassed
over and lit internally to produce a stunning centrepiece, and a mirror vision
television built - in.
The newly extended part of the house, benefiting from zoned underfloor
heating, includes a spacious family room with infrastructure fitted for a bar,
a large screen with surround sound, and Ipod docks. Beyond this lies a 10 - seat
soundproofed cinema with electrically operated Lazy Boy reclining seating, and
a recording studio. A corridor leads to the swimming pool complex, featuring a
cloakroom, whirlpool, sauna, and two walk - in showers. The pool, approximately
12. 5m x 6. 5m, has a childproof cover, a projector, and a 12ft dropdown screen.
A circular staircase leads to a comprehensively fitted gym above, equipped
with Ipod docking stations and a Bower & Wilkins speaker system.
The main staircase rises from the hall to a stunning, light - filled landing
with three copper etched decorative radiators and a balcony immediately ahead.
The balcony is accessible from both principal bedrooms, each featuring large
bay windows, panoramic views of the lake and grounds, and built - in automated
up and down TV screens. The larger principal suite includes a beautifully
appointed en suite bathroom and dressing room with fitted cupboards. In
addition to the principal bedroom, there are seven further bedrooms, three
with dressing rooms and six with en suites. The eighth bedroom has a
dedicated, but not en suite, family bathroom. All key bedrooms are pre - wired
for audio connectivity, as are selected ground floor rooms. The hot water
system is designed to provide constant water pressure, ensuring that all 10
showers in the house can run simultaneously.
Integral to the house, accessed from the south side, is a 4 - bay garage built
to accommodate 4 Bentleys. A second automated entrance along The Arnesby Road
leads to the garage, which also includes an additional tractor bay leading
directly onto the garden. The plant room, located within the garage, contains
the ground source heat pumps, which provide central heating and hot water via
the lake, minimising utility costs for a house of this size. The annex,
located in the south - west corner of the house, comprises a large, open - plan
living kitchen with bifold doors, a bathroom, and a bedroom.
Outside, the dominant feature within the garden is the beautiful lake, which
sits full - square behind the house. The lake, covering 0. 84 acres, has a
central island, providing a haven for local wildfowl, including Canadian Geese
and a host of resident wildlife. Adjacent to the house are stone terraces,
offering sheltered areas for alfresco dining. One of these, adjacent to the
annex, features a fire pit and BBQ area. Along the southern boundary, adjacent
to a third entrance from the Arnesby Road, lies a tennis court.

this magnificent estate. Encompassing 0. 84 acres, the lake cradles a central
island, a sanctuary for local wildfowl including Canadian Geese and a myriad
of resident wildlife. This natural oasis, which sits majestically behind the
house, forms a tableau of serenity and beauty, a testament to the harmony
