A Statement in Style Elegant Victorian Duplex with Boho-Chic Potential in a Landmark Victorian Residence
Set serenely back from the prestigious Stratford Road, behind a sweeping gravel driveway and embraced by landscaped gardens, lies this spectacular two-bedroom, two-reception Victorian duplex, bursting with original character and ripe with opportunity. Nestled within a striking detached Victorian villa dating back to 1859, this expansive home effortlessly blends period grandeur with the potential to craft a contemporary, Boho-Chic lifestyle retreat.
From the moment you approach Nutfield House, the building’s timeless Victorian façade sets the tone, elegant, imposing, and full of history. Once a grand family estate, it has been sympathetically transformed into just four generous apartments, maintaining a rich tapestry of heritage features including soaring ceilings, ornate cornicing, and oversized sash windows.
Ascend via the communal staircase to your private entrance and be welcomed by the home’s voluminous interiors.
The first floor opens with a well-proportioned, fitted kitchen that presents an exciting opportunity for bespoke renovation, a space brimming with potential to become the true heart of the home. Whether you're a passionate home cook or love to host, this kitchen offers the ideal foundation to craft your culinary haven. Picture sleek countertops, open shelving, ambient lighting, and thoughtful design touches that reflect your personal style.
Flowing naturally from the kitchen is a characterful dining room, where large windows frame serene views of the beautifully maintained communal gardens. This inviting space sets the scene for every occasion —from elegant evening soirées with candlelit ambiance to casual weekend brunches with friends or relaxed family dinners. The soft natural light and leafy outlook make it feel both refined and welcoming.
For those with an eye on the bigger picture, there's outstanding potential to remove the adjoining wall (subject to the necessary permissions), transforming the kitchen and dining room into a vast open-plan entertaining space. Imagine a seamless blend of cooking, dining, and lounging, a social hub designed for modern living, where conversations flow as easily as the wine, and every gathering feels effortlessly special. This is a home that invites both creativity and connection, just waiting for its next chapter.
The adjacent reception room is a truly voluminous space, stretching nearly 19 feet in length and brimming with potential. Bathed in natural light and rich in character, it offers the perfect canvas to create a stunning formal living area one that could effortlessly blend timeless elegance with a contemporary Boho-Chic flair. Whether you envision plush seating, layered textures, statement lighting, or curated art pieces, this expansive room invites you to craft a, space that is both stylish and soulful. Ideal for entertaining or simply unwinding, it promises to be the heart of the home once transformed.
A spacious bathroom completes the first floor, offering an exciting opportunity for transformation. While currently more traditional in its finish, the space holds wonderful potential to become a serene, spa-like retreat. With the right refurbishment, it could be reimagined as the perfect Zen zone, ideal for unwinding, recharging, and bringing a sense of calm and contemporary style to this charming home.
Upstairs, the second floor continues to impress. The expansive landing, formerly a tranquil reading area, lends itself beautifully to a cosy home library, meditation space, or even a chic study nook.
Two generously sized double bedrooms sit just beyond, one complete with a private W/C and both bathed in light through delightful, architecturally distinctive windows that echo the charm and character of the Eaves storage wraps around the upper level, while exciting potential exists to reconfigure the layout to include a luxurious en-suite bathroom or walk-in wardrobe, subject to the necessary permissions.
Yet, this is not just a home, it’s a lifestyle. Imagine the possibilities, stripped floorboards, layered textures, eclectic lighting, houseplants basking in the sunlight, and curated pieces collected from travels abroad, all seamlessly integrated into this incredible Victorian shell.
To the rear of Nutfield House lies a delightful outdoor oasis—a beautifully landscaped communal garden that gracefully wraps around the property. Mature, secluded lawns provide a sense of tranquility and privacy, while established trees, flowering shrubs, and vibrant planting create a lush tapestry of flora and fauna, offering residents a serene haven to relax, unwind, or simply enjoy nature’s beauty. A true extension of your living space, perfect for alfresco gatherings, morning yoga, or an impromptu picnic under the trees.
