A rare and expansive family home with over 3,300 sq ft of space, a large garage and off-street parking.

Description

Tucked behind a traditional Victorian façade, this remarkable home unfolds into a series of generous, light-filled spaces designed for both family living and entertaining. Spanning two floors and extending into a converted Victorian laundry, the property offers an unusually broad footprint, creating a home of exceptional scale and flexibility.

The ground floor is arranged to balance everyday practicality with impressive entertaining space. A welcoming entrance hall leads to a bright front reception room with wide bay windows and original details. Currently arranged as a spacious office and design studio, this versatile room also lends itself perfectly to home working or an additional reception area. Beyond lies a modern family bathroom and a spectacular open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area. This vast room combines bespoke cabinetry with expansive preparation and storage space, complemented by exposed brickwork that nods to the building’s heritage. Bi-folding doors open directly onto the landscaped rear garden, ideal for summer gatherings and indoor-outdoor living. A large adjoining utility room and direct access to the garage ensure excellent functionality.

Upstairs, the first floor is anchored by a dramatic vaulted living space with skylights and a contemporary log burner. This versatile room is ideal as a second reception, home cinema, or creative studio, and opens directly onto a private roof garden.

The principal bedroom suite is a showpiece, spanning over 570 sq ft and offering twin fireplaces, air conditioning, and an elegant en-suite with a freestanding bath, walk-in shower, and dressing room. Two further double bedrooms complete the accommodation, each well proportioned and flooded with natural light.

The property also boasts three distinct outdoor areas: a landscaped rear garden for entertaining, a secluded roof terrace for relaxing, and a private front courtyard with off-street parking. The generous garage offers further storage and future development possibilities.
