The Square, Stonehouse, PL1

You are welcomed into this exceptional home through an inviting porch that immediately sets the tone for the quality and character found throughout the property. The porch opens into a spacious main entrance hall, where two elegant French doors feature exquisite inset stained glass, a beautiful nod to the property’s heritage. The craftsmanship continues with detailed period architraves and decorative mouldings that frame the space perfectly, creating a warm and refined first impression.

The entrance hall is both practical and stylish, offering two useful storage cupboards ideal for coats, shoes, and household essentials. An attractive archway provides a natural flow through to the impressive kitchen and dining area, while additional doors lead to the lounge and formal dining room. The layout has been thoughtfully designed to combine period elegance with modern convenience, ensuring that the home works beautifully for both everyday family life and entertaining.

The kitchen/dining room is truly the heart of the home — a stunning open-plan space that combines contemporary design with a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. Bi-folding doors extend the living area seamlessly onto the private rear garden, making this an ideal setting for summer gatherings or tranquil evenings outdoors. The kitchen itself has been finished to an exceptional standard, with a comprehensive range of high-gloss wall and base units complemented by luxurious granite work surfaces. Every detail has been carefully considered, from the sleek handleless cabinetry to the stylish under-counter lighting and polished chrome fittings.

A full suite of high-quality integrated appliances ensures both functionality and style. These include a Neff induction hob with an innovative rising extraction system, two Neff double ovens, a Beko fridge/freezer, Beko dishwasher, and a Capel wine cooler, perfect for those who enjoy entertaining. A classic Belfast sink sits beneath a large window overlooking the garden, while inset spotlights and tasteful décor create a bright, contemporary finish.

A door from the kitchen leads through to the utility room, designed with practicality in mind. This useful space provides additional work surfaces and storage, as well as plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer. A fitted sink and drainer unit, low-level WC, and shelving make this an ideal area for laundry, cleaning, or keeping household items neatly tucked away. A window to the side elevation allows for plenty of natural light, ensuring the room feels airy and functional.

The lounge is an inviting and elegant living area, enjoying a dual-aspect outlook to both the front and side elevations. Large windows flood the room with natural light, enhancing its generous proportions and showcasing its beautiful period features. A striking feature fireplace with an open fire provides a stunning focal point, perfect for cosy winter evenings, while intricate ceiling rose detailing adds to the room’s timeless charm. Neutral décor and soft tones create a calm and welcoming space ideal for relaxing or entertaining guests.

The formal dining room offers another versatile living area, currently presented as an elegant dining space but easily adaptable to suit a variety of needs. This room also features a period fireplace and a built-in storage cupboard, with a window to the front elevation ensuring the room remains bright and airy. Its generous size means it could serve equally well as a fourth bedroom, home office, study, or comfortable snug, depending on your lifestyle.

Upstairs, the landing continues the home’s period detailing, with charming wall panelling and decorative finishes that echo the property’s heritage. A large front-facing window fills the stairwell with natural light, giving the upper level an open, airy feel. From here, doors lead to the principal suite, two further double bedrooms, and the beautifully appointed family bathroom.

The principal bedroom occupies a superb position at the rear of the property, enjoying dual-aspect views over The Millfields. French doors open directly onto a private balcony, offering a delightful spot for morning coffee or evening relaxation while overlooking the surrounding greenery. The bedroom itself is spacious and tranquil, providing ample room for wardrobes and furnishings while maintaining a sense of luxury and comfort.

The en-suite shower room has been designed and finished to an exceptional standard, featuring a walk-in glass shower enclosure, low-level WC, and a stylish vanity basin with storage beneath. Underfloor heating ensures warmth underfoot, while fully tiled walls and an obscured window to the side elevation create a bright yet private atmosphere. Chrome fittings, recessed lighting, and a sleek mirror complete this elegant and contemporary space.

Bedrooms two and three are both generous double rooms, each offering built-in furniture, front-facing windows, and a continuation of the home’s elegant styling. These rooms are ideal for family members, guests, or as flexible spaces for hobbies or working from home. The careful preservation of period features, combined with soft modern décor, creates a timeless yet comfortable feel throughout.

The family bathroom mirrors the property’s overall sense of quality and attention to detail. Beautifully finished, it features a panelled bath with overhead shower, a low-level WC, wash basin, heated towel rail, and a large mirrored splashback that enhances the feeling of space. The room is fully tiled and includes underfloor heating for added comfort. An obscured window to the side elevation allows natural light to filter in while maintaining privacy.

Outside, the private walled gardens provide a serene retreat and a sense of exclusivity. The carefully landscaped space offers areas for outdoor dining, relaxation, and gardening, with well-maintained borders and mature planting adding colour and texture throughout the seasons. The bi-folding doors from the kitchen open directly onto the patio, creating a perfect extension of the indoor living space.

To the front, the property benefits from ample off-road parking, allowing for several vehicles, and the walled boundary ensures both privacy and security. The combination of traditional architecture, modern convenience, and thoughtful design makes this home truly exceptional.

With three double bedrooms, a master en-suite, and beautifully proportioned living spaces, this detached home perfectly balances period character with contemporary luxury. The high specification finishes, attention to detail, and versatile layout make it ideal for families, professionals, or anyone seeking a home that combines style, comfort, and charm in a prime location.
