Description

This ideally-located Victorian family home in Walton Manor has undergone a top-to-bottom restoration, returning it to its late 19th century-style splendour. The house is unusually light due to its orientation and the bay-fronted windows running to the top of the house. It offers flexible accommodation over four floors including a self-contained annex with separate access. The comprehensive renovation has retained and enhanced period features, such as original fireplaces while adding modern comforts including a luxury period bathroom and kitchen, and high-quality flooring.

A bright lower-ground floor features a large open-plan sitting/dining area with kitchen facilities, a double-bedroom/additional reception with large bay-fronted windows, a shower room, a separate w.c. and a utility room with storage space. This floor can function as part of the family home or as separate guest accommodation.

A south-facing kitchen/breakfast room, equipped with a Rangemaster cooker and featuring Fired Earth tiles, is located on the raised ground floor, overlooking the sunny and peaceful garden. Across the landing, the reception room benefits from bay-fronted windows and an open fireplace. The second floor gives way to two double bedrooms, one south-facing and flooded with light throughout the day, and the other bay-fronted and catching the evening light.

An additional cloakroom is located on the half-landing.

On the top floor, there is a further double bedroom with large Velux windows which is currently arranged as a home office. On the same floor, can be found a luxury family bathroom appointed in a Victorian style with a free-standing roll-top bath, replica period floor tiles, and period fixtures.

The partially-boarded loft offers approximately 12 additional square meters of floor space offering substantial storage.

To the back, the house benefits from a south-facing garden that catches the sun all day long, and which is bordered by white roses and other mature flowering shrubs.
