Maynard Road is a striking balance of Victorian architecture and contemporary craft-led design. Thoughtfully reimagined by Forgeworks, there is a sensitivity to material, texture and place. Set behind a private gate and approached via a welcoming courtyard, the home unfolds with an assured elegance flush with the accoutrements of modern living. Original brickwork, exposed steelwork and carefully restored elements now sit alongside expansive glazing, natural timber, and concrete forming a harmonious interplay between old and new.
Inside, the living spaces are composed with quiet confidence. A spacious entrance hall gives way to a sitting room of generous proportions, where light pours in from sash windows and the atmosphere is grounded by exposed materials and thoughtful detailing. Everyday life unfolds around the open-plan kitchen and dining area, designed for both family life and entertaining, with a seamless connection to the garden. A built-in seating nook is carefully positioned beneath a wide picture window, offering a quiet place to pause, dine, or read, while drawing in views of the garden and soft natural light throughout the day. Above, exposed timber ceiling joists lend warmth and texture, gently softening the architectural lines of the space. This natural timber contrasts beautifully with the clean geometry of poured concrete worktops.
Upstairs, the bedrooms echo the home's calm and composed interiors, each one offering a quiet retreat framed by lofty ceilings and soft palettes. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive in scale and feel, benefitting from wide views and generous storage. Bathrooms are sleek and understated, using a muted palette of stone and ceramic, with clean lines and tactile finishes that reflect the broader architectural language of the home.
A separate brick-built workshop at the rear of the garden offers additional flexibility, ideal as a creative studio, home office, or conversion project. The garden has been landscaped with planted borders and zones for outdoor living.
