If you lived here...

You’d not only have a generously sized two bedroom property but also the potential to expand and add value. Many neighbouring properties have large loft and/or rear extensions. The house has 829 sq ft of space over two floors with an abundance of space on the ground floor which has a 24ft long living room and a separate kitchen. Originally two rooms, the stunning living room has generous period proportions and features including ceiling roses and cornicing, and two cast iron fireplaces. It divides naturally into a lounge area and a dining zone, and has plentiful natural light thanks to a large front bay window and a rear window with garden views. William Morris Strawberry Thief wallpaper on the chimney breasts add character and connects the room visually to the kitchen where the same wallpaper can be glimpsed through the doorway. The week-equipped kitchen is a welcoming space lined with smart fitted cabinets that provide plenty of storage and worktop space, and house integrated and freestanding appliances. A door at the end leads to the rear garden via a convenient utility area with a separate WC and garden views; a pleasant place to do your laundry.

The first floor is home to two bedrooms and the bathroom. The main front bedroom has two large windows and plenty of space for a kingsize bed and bedroom furniture, whilst the second double bedroom has garden views. Both are carpeted for comfort and feature cast iron fireplaces. All four fireplaces in the property are functional. The bathroom is serene and spacious, with a bath, a separate shower cubicle, and a washbasin and WC console. Natural light from the large window is maximised by the stylish simple decor that includes white metro tiled and herringbone pattern flooring. Outside, the sunny west-facing landscaped garden is a lovely place to relax, dine or entertain. The paved terrace adjacent to the house is a sheltered spot, and the lawn is bordered by beds with beautiful mature planting.

A word from the owner...

"i've loved bringing this home back to its former glory while making sure it has a contemporary edge -- it has very much been a passion project! I got great satisfaction redesigning the kitchen and bathroom to make the best use of each space (and adding a utility and downstairs loo too!), adding four working fireplaces, and creating a haven in the back garden perfect for enjoying breakfast on a sunny weekend or a BBQ with friends and family.

I've chosen décor that invokes a calm, understated feel whilst reflecting the heritage of the house, and my decorator has even used photos of the house in his portfolio. Above all, my favourite thing has been making sure everything is finished to a high standard while feeling like a home: And there's nothing quite like sitting in front of the fire on a chilly evening snuggled on the sofa.

I'm moving as my partner and I are getting married. Much as we love this house, we're relocating outside of London to be closer to family. I hope the person who buys this home enjoys it as much as I have, and continues to give it the love it deserves."
