The Property

Lobby & Entrance Hall: A striking entrance, freshly re-skimmed and redecorated, with bespoke wall panelling and solid oak herringbone flooring laid with brass trim insets. Hand-carved skirting and architraves reinforce the heritage detailing, while a bespoke stair runner sets an elegant first impression. The initial lobby space is separated from the entrance hall via the first of two stunning bespoke archways with Crittall-style glazing, laid in new floor tiles.

Drawing Room: An imposing reception room with Victorian cornicing and ceiling roses, central fireplace fitted with a woodburning stove, and sash windows with curved arches set within the bay window, overlooking the gardens. Re-skimmed walls and brass-finished sockets add period authenticity.

Sun Room: A bright and inviting accessed from the drawing room, with half-vaulted glazed roof, windows and a door onto the terrace, creating an excellent reading or breakfast room.

Study: A beautifully decorated workspace, overlooking the driveway. The inclusion of Corston solid brass and bronze sockets elevates the detail, while proportions allow for a library or professional office setup. Two tall arch windows are stylishly finished with new plantation shutters, while a working woodburning stove sits within the fireplace between two full height bookshelves, the right of which is actually a large secret door; concealing a useful shelved storage room behind.

Open Plan Kitchen/Dining/Sitting Room: The central hub of the home, reconfigured by knocking through the wall between the lounge and dining room, now forms a generous and versatile open plan space. A newly created archway, modelled on the original, enhances the symmetry and flow, while bespoke Crittall style steel & glass doors add architectural splendour. The kitchen includes a Rangemaster stove with matching extractor & black subway splashback tiles, dishwasher, space for an American style fridge/freezer, and extensive cupboard storage with granite countertops. A practical U-shaped arrangement of units is set beneath two wide windows overlooking the garden, fitted with a Belfast sink and drainer.

At the heart of the room, beneath the reinstated Victorian cornicing and ceiling roses, the dining area offers excellent proportions for entertaining, comfortably accommodating a large table. This space enjoys direct flow to the sitting area, filled with natural light from French doors that open to the rear garden. With oak herringbone flooring continuing seamlessly throughout, woodburner set within the fireplace and a cast iron radiator with antique brass fittings, this space is beautifully appointed.

Utility Room & WC: Practical and separate, with ample storage & Belfast sink, space for laundry appliances and external access to the drive, with a further door to the redecorated WC. The utility also includes a newly laid flat roof.

First Floor Landing: Wide and well-lit, freshly decorated with bespoke panelling, leading to the bedroom suites. A seating area at the top of the stairs offers a perfect reading nook, beneath the shuttered window.

Principal Bedroom Suite: The ultimate retreat – a large master bedroom with new fitted carpets. Walls have been removed to create a large private dressing room & ensuite bathroom, now fitted with bespoke joinery and finished to an exceptionally high standard. A roll-top bath, walk-in shower and marble-effect tiling complete the look, while new carpets and ceiling detailing ensure warmth and elegance.

Second Bedroom Suite: Another substantial double with its own newly fitted ensuite shower room. This room offers the proportions of a Victorian home, privacy, and luxury for visiting guests.

Bedroom 3: A generously spacious double bedroom with newly re-skimmed walls, fresh decoration, dual-aspect sash windows and built-in wardrobes.

Bedroom 4: A further sizeable double, also redecorated and presented with the same attention to detail. Includes a cast iron radiator, dual aspect sash windows, oak flooring and pendant lighting.

Family Bathroom: Reconfigured into the tower space. A completely new installation, with traditional style pedestal basin, WC, LED mirror and bath with overhead shower, surrounded by marble-effect tiling. Finished in soft grey tones with oak flooring, echoing the home’s period elegance. A door opposite the bathroom on the second floor landing accesses the attic (with treated timbers), which provides copious storage space.

Outside

The property sits within nearly half an acre of wrap-around gardens, enclosed by mature hedging and trees for privacy. Lawns stretch around the house, intersected by shaped hedging and specimen trees, with a contemporary summerhouse nestled to the rear. Directly outside the kitchen at the rear lies a broad stone terrace, finished with tiles and block paving. This area includes space for an outdoor kitchen, dining and multiple seating zones, all perfectly oriented for afternoon sun.

Beyond, the lawn offers space for play, planting or landscaping. The whole garden is designed for both privacy and grandeur, with a circular box hedge adding a central feature to the lawn. At the front, a sweeping driveway provides ample parking for multiple vehicles and access to the detached double garage with additional store room behind, ideal for storage, workshop or hobby use.
