This exceptional Edwardian Arts & Crafts residence extends to approximately 4,352 sq ft and has been recognised as a Positive Contributor of Special Interest due to its architectural significance and wealth of original character features.

      Constructed during an era that celebrated craftsmanship and natural materials, the property retains many beautiful period details including solid oak flooring, original floor tiles, a sweeping oak staircase, stained glass windows, exposed beams, original fireplaces and even an original dumb waiter. These features combine effortlessly with the generous proportions required for modern family living.

      The accommodation is arranged over three floors and offers exceptional flexibility. The ground floor comprises an impressive reception hall, a superb dual-aspect sitting room, formal dining room, spacious study/family room and an excellent kitchen/breakfast room with adjoining utility room. French doors from the kitchen open directly onto the gardens, creating a wonderful connection between the indoor and outdoor living spaces.

      Outside, the mature south-facing gardens are a particular highlight and have been thoughtfully landscaped to provide complete privacy. The gardens offer extensive areas for entertaining, dining and relaxation, with a swimming pool benefiting from a retractable polycarbonate cover that naturally retains and generates heat through solar gain. A detached summer house, pool store and garage further enhance the property's appeal.
