This exceptional family home, held within the same family for over 80 years, has been meticulously restored to blend historic character with contemporary luxury. Every detail has been carefully considered, creating a truly unique living experience.
At the heart of the home is a bespoke kitchen featuring handmade Kitchens of Christchurch cabinetry in Farrow & Ball Skimming Stone, with a striking House of Hackney Prussian Blue peninsula. Veined white quartz worktops exude understated luxury, while herringbone wood-effect tiled flooring adds warmth. Integrated Samsung and Bosch appliances, underfloor heating, and smart controls complete this flawless space.
The breathtaking reception room is a showcase of timeless grandeur, anchored by two stunning Nero Marquina black marble fireplaces with granite hearths. Handmade cornicing, Acanthus ceiling roses, and restored original floorboards enhance its period charm, while a bespoke Paladin Neo-Georgian cast iron radiator in pewter adds a sophisticated touch.
A sense of elegance greets you in the grand entrance hall, where a high ceiling and meticulously restored staircase, painted in Prussian Blue, create an immediate impact. The polished hardwood bannister and cast iron radiator set the tone for the refined aesthetic that flows throughout the home.
The property includes a stylish downstairs WC featuring a striking black marble basin, Lusso chrome tap, and a wall-hung toilet with chrome fixings. A well-appointed utility area houses a brand-new Vaillant boiler, installed in 2024, along with plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer. Smart heating is managed through a Nest system, with a separate thermostat for the kitchen?s underfloor heating.
Upstairs, the main and middle bedrooms are a perfect blend of period detailing and timeless appeal, with original sanded floorboards, handmade Acanthus ceiling roses, and sandstone fire surrounds with black cast iron inserts. An additional bedroom offers a charming retreat with wooden flooring, ideal as a guest room, nursery, or home office.
The main bathroom is a spa-like sanctuary, featuring a Lusso freestanding matte white acrylic bath, brushed steel taps, a custom-painted vanity unit, and a mirror with integrated lighting and Wi-Fi speaker connectivity. A stainless steel shower with marble-effect herringbone tiles and Warmup underfloor heating complete this luxurious space. The ensuite bathroom continues the theme of contemporary luxury, boasting a wall-hung Lusso toilet, a Lusso walnut cabinet with stone top, a stainless steel bath with a Lusso stone shower, and underfloor heating by Warmup.
The hallway and landing are a true showcase of craftsmanship, with a staircase carefully replicated to preserve its historic charm. Handcrafted newel posts and handrails by Nicholas Brothers Wood Turners complement the solid handrail painted in Prussian Blue, while a skylight over the stairwell fills the space with natural light.
