Home Of The Day – ‘The Eaton II’, Hayfield

Of all the brand new homes we see every day, the WhatHouse? team likes to pick a favourite that stands out from the crowd and today it’s a luxury home from former WhatHouse? Housebuilder of the Year Hayfield at its development in Clophill, Bedfordshire.

‘The Eaton II’ is a substantial family home which, in line with Hayfield’s company policy, is zero carbon ready, with underfloor heating to the ground floor powered by an air source heat pump. This and the high standard of materials and build quality make it a very energy-efficient choice compared to a second-hand house. It’s a five-bedroom property which has a bonus over the neighbouring house of the same design, ‘The Eaton I’.

There’s a statement central staircase in the welcoming hallway, and straight ahead are double doors leading to the bright, expansive kitchen/breakfast/family room. This in turn has a bi-folding glass doors and French doors leading to the rear garden. Also off the kitchen is a utility/boot room with its own door to the outside. At the front of the house are separate dining and living rooms, both with bay windows and the latter with a fireplace. Also downstairs are a cloakroom and a private study with increased sound-reducing insulation. Upstairs, the principal suite comes with a dressing area with fitted wardrobes, as well as a luxury en suite with Minoli floor and wall tiling, as well as a designer Laufen suite, including walk-in shower, stand-alone tub and twin basins. Bedroom two also has its own en suite. The further three bedrooms share the beautiful family bathroom. This home comes with plenty of parking space and an EV charging point.

The special feature of this property is above the detached triple garage, where there’s a self-contained flat with kitchen/dining/sitting room, bedroom and shower room.

‘The Eaton II’ is priced at £1.475million. ‘The Eaton I’ (with double garage and without self-contained accommodation) is priced at £1.3million.
