"Our home is a calm, elegant haven where the city noise melts away the moment you step inside. It’s peaceful, warm, and full of light, the kind of place that makes you exhale and slow down. Mornings are best spent with coffee in the conservatory, watching the birds and clouds drift by, or tucked into the living room’s cosy bay window where the house feels alive around you. The kitchen is the heart of it all - always buzzing with life - while the conservatory is where we gather for long meals, watching the rain or sunshine on the glass. In winter, the open fireplace wraps the house in comfort; in summer, the terrace becomes a sun trap for tea or BBQs."

The home

An extraordinary, semi-detached five-bedroom home with off street parking. St Martins Road has been extensively renovated throughout and is offered with no onward chain. Highlights include a newly installed custom designed Harvey Jones kitchen, remodelling of the bathrooms with Witt and Berg showers and free-standing copper bath and a conservatory extension on the back of the house. The kitchen wall has been knocked through to create an open plan kitchen diner featuring two cooking ranges, a restored Victorian range and a Lacanche cooking range, integrated white goods and underfloor heating running across to the living room, the kitchen and downstairs bedroom/study. Off the conservatory / kitchen dining space there is a large room, this is a versatile space which can be accessed separately through the garden with potential to become a studio or office space.

Period features have been added back into the home with all fireplaces renovated and replaced with original pieces sourced as far as York, cast iron radiators have been installed, the stain glass windows have been triple glazed and all windows replaced. Original floorboards have been retained and restored. On the ground floor, a guest bathroom under the stairs has been added with an antique cistern sourced from the lake district a tap from a castle in France. Making your way upstairs a skylight has been added to the stairwell, creating wonderful natural light all the way down the landings and internal section of the house.

The middle floor features three bedrooms including the master which overlooks the garden, the smaller bedroom leads out to a balcony which overlooks the front of the home. The two top floor bedrooms have been remodelled with eaves storage added and an additional dormer to add more light into one of them.
