Description
An impressive detached Victorian family home arranged over three floors and offering more than 3,500 sq ft of versatile, beautifully balanced accommodation on a sought after residential avenue. The property blends elegant period architecture with generous proportions, high ceilings and abundant natural light, with original features complemented by thoughtful modern updates. Set behind a mature frontage with driveway parking for several vehicles, the house opens onto an exceptional rear garden.
A welcoming reception hall with original flooring and decorative detailing leads to a series of well proportioned reception rooms featuring high ceilings, ornate cornicing and original fireplaces. The dining room and sitting room both enjoy generous bay windows, while the sitting area is enhanced by a log burner, creating a relaxed family space.
The sitting room opens directly into the conservatory, a bright and atmospheric room with full height glazing and uninterrupted garden views.
The kitchen and breakfast room form the heart of the home, offering bespoke cabinetry, composite worktops and a central peninsula. The adjoining breakfast area provides space for informal dining with direct access to the terrace and garden. A utility room and a side door add further convenience. This layout works equally well for everyday family life and entertaining.
The first floor offers five well proportioned bedrooms arranged around a spacious landing. The principal bedroom enjoys a front aspect through a bay window and has its own en suite. The remaining bedrooms are served by a family shower room.
There is a useful loft storage, accessed via pull down ladder and a substantial cellar adding valuable ancillary space.
The rear garden, extending to approximately 130 ft, is a particular feature. Predominantly laid to lawn, it includes mature planting, multiple seating areas positioned for sun throughout the day, a timber garden studio with log burner and a timber workshop offering a range of potential uses. To the front, a generous driveway provides parking for several vehicles, completing this exceptional Victorian home.
