THE DEAL
Luxury done right, is done to last. Add in exquisite craft, massive proportions and the finest materials around – the result is family living at its absolute peak. Executed by PaulMarc’s. One of Mar Lodge’s very best.

Hit and miss brickwork. Sleek curves. Rich greenery. Heavyweight pivot door. Step inside – sun streams through oversized windows, dancing off a feature pond – filling a double-height void. For a first impression, nothing comes close.

Defined while free-flowing – living, dining and kitchen flip the script on entertaining. Calacatta Monet marble as the statement. Textured plaster and bespoke joinery to accent. All the top-end Miele, in-built gas burners, butler’s area, bar, gas-log fire and sun from all sides to amplify occasion. Glass doors slide – inside and out become one.

Fully fitted barbecue kitchen. Circular skylight. Powder room. Outdoor shower hidden by curved brickwork – all joining a shimmering, heated pool that soaks in northern sun.

Sweeping vista from above, fern garden below – up and downstairs masters offer dressing rooms, extensive storage and first-class ensuites. Oversized robes and two more lavish bathrooms serve bedrooms 3, 4 and 5. Two-user office, kids’ study areas, open retreat, downstairs lounge.

4-car garage – 6 total behind electric gates. 16kW solar with batteries. Control4 automation. 3-phase power. Saturn and San Marino natural stone. Ceiling speakers. Ambient skirt lighting. Camera security. Full-height doors. No indoor-outdoor threshold. Ducted vacuum. High-end heating/cooling. Large laundry. Extra powder room.

North-facing masterpiece – Mar Lodge exclusivity. Moments to elite schools, village cafés, parks and city transport.

SEALS THE DEAL
Statement skylights, casting rays across a spiral staircase. Art through craft, luxury through detail.
