Upon entering Lillieshall House, you’re greeted by a welcoming entrance hallway that sets the tone for the home’s blend of charm and practicality. To the left, the kitchen stands out as a bright and functional space, designed with light wood cabinets, colourful green tiling and a striking chrome double cooker with a matching backsplash and extractor hood. This well-equipped kitchen also offers space for a family dining table, along with plumbing for a washing machine, tumble dryer and dishwasher. A door leads directly to the garden, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living.
To the right of the hallway, the living room invites relaxation with its warm wood laminate flooring and matching timber details, including skirting boards, a dado rail and a classic fire surround framing an open decorative fireplace. Dual-aspect windows fill the room with natural light, making it a comfortable and spacious gathering place for the family.
Completing the ground floor is a convenient WC, fitted with a toilet and sink, perfect for day-to-day practicality in this charming two-and-a-half storey home.
The first floor boasts two spacious double bedrooms, each thoughtfully designed for comfort and charm, and a delightful family bathroom. In bedroom 1, the focal point is a decorative fireplace, featuring a wooden surround and black inset that harks back to the home’s period character. The soft cream walls and plush carpeting create a warm and inviting ambiance, while the large front-facing window allows an abundance of natural light in, highlighting the room’s spacious feel. The en-suite shower room adds a touch of luxury, complete with a modern electric shower, sleek tiled cubicle and classic white fixtures, offering convenience and privacy.
Bedroom 2 has a vibrant personality, thanks to its bold floral feature wall in red and white, which lends the space a lively yet sophisticated touch. The neutral carpet and walls balance the room's design, while the large front window helps create a bright and uplifting environment. With its generous size, the room is both cosy and versatile, making it equally suited as a relaxing retreat or a stylish guest room.
