Enjoying privacy in its unspoiled one-acre plot, an Edwardian detached house of tremendous character and gravitas.
One of Costain’s earliest houses in Kingswood, a substantial family home of over 5,000 sq ft with an impressive frontage to this prestigious, private lane.
Whilst recognisable as a Costain house, the property has an individual design and was built around 1910. The house was placed in its generous plot of just over one acre, so as to enjoy the utmost privacy and South-West aspect and views over its gardens from the principal rooms.
The house retains tremendous character whilst having been refurbished over the years to meet the needs of the owners’ growing family. The house has spacious reception rooms and there are five bedrooms on the first floor, each with fitted wardrobes and served by three bath/shower rooms. Two additional bedrooms and a huge attic space on the second floor offer untold potential.
Beautiful gardens encompass the house with many fine trees and mature shrubs which provide all-season natural screening and display. The gated driveway culminates in a parking and turning area with a detached double garage. There is plenty of gardens storage buildings.
Available for the first time in 40 years, this exceptional family home is well presented throughout while offering its new owners scope for further improvement in this high-value location.
In one of Kingswood’s most prestigious locations in this quiet, private lane the property is set amidst similarly substantial homes each in expansive, leafy gardens.
