Description
Spanning four spacious floors, the home offers five bedrooms, four bathrooms, and beautifully proportioned living spaces, blending timeless character with high-quality modern finishes.
Step inside through the welcoming entrance hall, where original tessellated floor tiles, a sweeping staircase with half landing, and a stunning stained glass window immediately set the tone for this exceptional home. From here, doors lead to all principal ground floor rooms.
To the left, a 30ft open-plan living and dining room offers elegant, flexible space for both entertaining and everyday living. Rich with original features including ornate ceiling cornices, ceiling roses, and traditional window shutters, the room is further enhanced by Karndean flooring and a wood-burning stove set within a beautiful fireplace.
To the right of the hallway, a versatile second reception room serves perfectly as a study, snug, or ground floor bedroom, offering additional flexibility to suit changing needs. The cloakroom is cleverly divided into a coat and shoe storage area, with a sliding door opening to a WC and basin for guest convenience.
At the rear of the house is the heart of the home—an impressive kitchen/breakfast room that has been stylishly refitted to suit modern family life. Featuring a large central island, Silestone Quartz worktops, integrated dishwasher, and space for a range cooker, this space is as practical as it is beautiful. At one end, a cosy snug area invites quiet moments with views over the garden, and underfloor heating ensures comfort throughout. A walk-in pantry/utility sits just off the kitchen, with stairs leading down to the main utility room on the lower ground floor. This practical space offers fitted units, a sink, appliance space, and direct access to the rear garden, as well as housing the gas boiler and hot water cylinder.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom enjoys a dual aspect and features a generous en-suite with quadrant shower, vanity basin, WC, and heated towel rail. The second bedroom, also a double, benefits from its own compact en-suite shower room—perfect for guests. A third double bedroom overlooks the garden and is served by the luxurious family bathroom, complete with a freestanding roll-top bath, stylish vanity units, and elegant fittings. A dedicated linen room provides excellent built-in storage and hanging space.
The second floor presents two further bedrooms. Bedroom four includes its own en-suite shower room, while bedroom five—a dual-aspect room currently used as a hobby and sewing room—could serve a variety of purposes, including as a playroom or study. A spacious walk-in storage area is also located on this level.
Over the past decade, the property has undergone comprehensive renovation, including rewiring, new plumbing, installation of a gas central heating system, double-glazed sash windows throughout, new bathrooms and kitchen, underfloor heating, Karndean flooring, two additional en-suites, and full replastering, ensuring the home is not only beautiful but also highly efficient and low-maintenance.
Outside, the home continues to impress. From the roadside, a stone-pillared entrance leads to a generous stone-chipped driveway, offering ample parking and turning space. A substantial open-fronted double car port provides covered parking for two vehicles. The front garden is attractively landscaped with well-kept borders and centred around a beautiful spring-flowering magnolia tree.
To the rear, the private landscaped garden is a true retreat. With lawns, stone walkways, seating areas, and an ornamental pond, it offers both tranquillity and space for entertaining. A charming summerhouse, timber storage sheds, and a superb 14ft x 14ft workshop with light and power provide further value and versatility. To one side of the house, a gated storage area is ideal for keeping logs, bins, or tools neatly out of sight.
56 St Nicholas Street is a rare find—a fully restored, character-filled home that balances historical charm with contemporary living. Spacious, elegant, and move-in ready, it offers a wonderful opportunity to enjoy life in a highly regarded location, with every detail thoughtfully considered and beautifully executed.
