Approaching the home, you're greeted by a brick-paved driveway flanked by a well-stocked, raised flowerbed. The sleek anthracite front door opens into a charming porch, featuring patterned tiled flooring and painted brick, setting a tone of modern elegance from the moment you arrive. A glazed door leads into the welcoming hallway, which provides access to the family bathroom and all three bedrooms.
The heart of the home is the bright and inviting lounge, flooded with natural light from a large front-facing window. A feature electric log-burning stove creates a cosy atmosphere, while warm wood flooring flows seamlessly into the adjacent dining room. Here, a charming exposed wood archway adds character, and dual-aspect windows offer picturesque views of the surrounding grazing fields, occasionally visited by longhorn cattle.
The dining room leads to the modern kitchen, a space designed for both beauty and function. Floor-to-ceiling French sliding doors provide breath-taking views of the landscaped garden, while cream units and a traditional-looking stove with a five-ring gas hob offer a perfect blend of classic and contemporary design. A separate utility room provides practical space for laundry and storage, and a convenient cloakroom with a modern WC completes the ground floor.
The property features two double bedrooms and one single. The main double bedroom overlooks the rear garden and includes a fitted wardrobe with mirrored sliding doors and a private sliding door leading directly outside. A second double bedroom is located at the front, while the single bedroom is situated to the side. The stylish family bathroom boasts a panelled bath, a vanity basin, and a walk-in shower with both rainfall and handheld showerheads, finished with a heated towel rail and modern fixtures.

A True Paradise at the Rear
The true magic of Highdrive lies in its captivating outdoor space. The current owners have completely reimagined the garden, dividing it into enchanting "rooms" for you to explore. A golden gravel sitting area provides the perfect spot for morning coffee, while a meandering path leads you through a formal lawn & wide borders bursting with a curated selection of low-maintenance perennials.
Mature shrubs & trees provide structure and shade, while an archway with climbing plants leads to a dedicated David Austin rose garden. Beyond this, you'll discover a productive section featuring raised vegetable beds, a greenhouse & a lovely summerhouse-the ideal spot for quiet reflection. The garden is a haven for year-round colour and produce, with four apple trees, damson, pear, and a variety of soft fruit bushes including raspberries, gooseberries, and blackcurrants. Early spring brings a stunning display of snowdrops, daffodils, and bluebells, ensuring a beautiful view no matter the season.
A Perfectly Placed Location
Situated in Walford Heath, Highdrive offers the best of both worlds. The property sits on a quiet country lane, surrounded by grazing fields, providing an unrivalled sense of peace and privacy. Yet, you are just a five-minute drive from the large and historic village of Baschurch.
Baschurch offers a fantastic array of local amenities, including two excellent schools (Baschurch CE Primary School and The Corbet School), pubs, a small supermarket, a post office, a garage, and a doctors' surgery. This blend of rural charm and urban convenience makes Highdrive a truly exceptional place to call home.
