The home is approached via a sweeping in-and-out driveway, providing parking for several cars. Spanning an impressive 2,624 square feet (244sqm) across three floors, the property offers spacious and flexible accommodation. A charming porticoed porch shelters the front entrance, with traditional stained and leaded light-glazed panels. The wide, welcoming entrance hall is flooded with light from matching stained and leaded windows, with an archway at the end drawing your eye through the house and into the beautifully landscaped garden.
On the right, contemporary partially glazed double doors lead to a cosy sitting room—perfect for curling up with a book from the fitted shelves. At the far end, you’ll find a bright dual-aspect study, complete with custom office furnishings and two workspaces—ideal for those working from home or as a study space for teenagers. On the left, a second reception room with an en-suite shower room and WC is currently used as a gym and boot room but could easily serve as an additional bedroom for a nanny or a semi-independent relative.
The expansive family room, with its exposed brick wall, inset wood-burning fire, and light wood flooring, exudes cool Scandi-chic vibes. Opened up to the sunroom, this space is now a fabulous formal dining area with folding doors that open out onto the mature garden—a perfect spot for entertaining or enjoying a quiet morning coffee. Stylish Crittall-style doors lead back into the sleek, Newley renovated, fully-fitted kitchen with Neff Kitchen appliances and breakfast room, complete with a separate utility area.
Upstairs, a broad staircase with original decorative balustrades takes you to the first-floor landing, illuminated by a large stained glass window. This floor offers four generously sized bedrooms, each featuring wood-effect flooring, as well as a spacious family bathroom with Deco-style fittings, twin hand basins, a double-ended bath, and a separate shower enclosure. On the top floor, a light-filled landing with eaves storage leads to the grand double bedroom, which boasts custom-made wardrobes and an en-suite shower room.
Outside, the front garden is bordered by a red brick wall and wrought-iron railings, with two brick-pillared entrances leading to the block-paved carriage driveway. A small attached garage offers convenient storage for bicycles or motorbikes, while mature hedging and a variety of shrubs provide privacy. The beautifully landscaped rear garden features a terraced lawn, well-stocked flowerbeds, and a paved patio—ideal for al fresco dining. Steps lead up to a secluded ‘secret garden,’ complete with a large decked area—the perfect spot to enjoy a summer evening with friends.
With planning permission granted in February 2022 for a two-storey side extension, two-storey rear extension, and single-storey side and front extensions (Planning Reference 21/03729/HSE), this property offers incredible potential to create a truly extraordinary home.
