Character Two Bedroom Home in the heart of Stamford with private driveway and garden
A beautifully renovated and characterful two-bedroom period townhouse, built in 1904, with private parking, an established rear garden and a wealth of period features, situated within Stamford's Conservation Area.
Built in 1904 of traditional brick and slate construction, 22 Queens Walk occupies a desirable position within Stamford's Conservation Area. The property is approached via a private block-paved driveway providing parking for one car, with further on-street parking available. The handsome brick façade is softened by established wisteria, creating an inviting first impression.
The property has been thoughtfully renovated, retaining its period character whilst introducing a refined and contemporary finish. High ceilings, sash windows, stripped wooden doors, exposed brickwork and feature fireplaces sit alongside considered modern fittings and a neutral palette.
The accommodation opens into a welcoming double-aspect open-plan sitting and dining room, with windows to both the front and rear creating an excellent sense of natural light and space. Wooden flooring extends throughout, while a focal brick-built hearth houses an Aga log burner with slate hearth, providing an attractive centrepiece to the room. There is ample space for a dining table and chairs, fitted shelving and generous understairs storage.
To the rear, the light and well-designed kitchen has been thoughtfully planned to combine functionality with understated style. Finished in neutral tones, it features a range of integrated appliances including a Bosch oven and gas hob, together with a Lamona fridge freezer and sink. There is also space and plumbing for a washing machine. A glazed rear door opens directly onto the garden, providing a natural connection between the kitchen and outside space.
The first floor provides two bedrooms and a beautifully appointed bathroom. The principal bedroom is a generous double with two sash windows, which flood the room with natural light. A feature fireplace provides a focal point, with ample space for freestanding storage.
Bedroom two is a small double, currently utilised as a single bedroom, and benefits from access to the loft.
The bathroom has been finished in a sophisticated palette of neutral tones, creating a calm and elegant setting. It comprises a bath with shower over, wash basin, WC and heated towel rail, with contemporary styling complementing the wider renovation.

Beyond, an area of lawn is enclosed by established borders, with a charming summer house providing additional versatility. External power and water are available, together with useful rear access.
22 Queens Walk offers a rare combination of period character, considered modernisation, private parking and an established garden, all within a highly desirable Conservation Area setting in the heart of Stamford.

What I really love about 22 Queens Walk is how easy it would be to live here. You can walk into Stamford for a coffee, do your shopping or enjoy dinner without needing the car, but when you come home, the house feels calm and private. The renovation has been done beautifully, without losing the character that makes a period home so appealing, and I particularly love the contrast between the fresh, contemporary interiors and the established garden. It is such a peaceful little space to sit and enjoy, and I think that combination of town life and your own quiet corner is what makes this house so lovely.
