About this property

  • This spacious and beautifully appointed property offers over 2700 sq.ft of space across four floors and affords attractive interiors with ample charm. The Victorian home is of a handsome red brick construction and is believed to have been built in 1895, with many of its original character features remaining such as wood floors, cast iron feature fireplaces and decorative radiators, picture rails and stained-glass detailing. The house has been significantly modernised with a complementary style in recent years, to include a rear extension, new windows, an upgraded boiler and landscaping to the garden. The result is an elegant home that is both ideal for entertaining at home and well equipped for busy family life.

    There is a lovely open plan kitchen/dining room which serves as the heart of the family home, with French windows opening to the garden for entertaining outside in the warmer months. The kitchen is appointed with handmade fitted storage cupboards and has space for a range cooker. In addition there is a sitting room and a separate 30ft formal reception room opening to a conservatory at the rear. A study? (please confirm) and downstairs cloakroom with w.c. completes the ground floor accommodation. The basement level has been converted and is currently used as a games room.

    On the first floor there is an impressive principal bedroom with built-in storage plus three further good-size double bedrooms, one with an en suite bathroom. A family bathroom and separate w.c. is shared by the additional bedrooms. The top floor includes two more bedrooms and a shower room, with ample storage with the eaves.

    To the front of the house there is a parking space for one car on a private driveway adjoining a pretty front garden set behind traditional iron railings. To the rear of the house there is a delightful town garden which has been landscaped to include a paved patio adjoining the lawn with a path leading through an arched beech hedge to a separate area planted with young trees.
