If you live here...
With an impressive 2,250 square feet of polished living space (not including the garden outbuilding), this expansive five-bedroom home is a masterclass in scale, versatility, and style.
From the moment you step inside, the thoughtful layout and exceptional proportions invite you to explore. The interconnecting reception rooms are ideal for entertaining, with internal sliding doors allowing you to create open-plan flow or cosy separation as needed. Period charm comes from the ornate beading, ceiling roses, and high ceilings, which contrasts well with the contemporary touches and the abundance of natural light.
The large kitchen/diner is the heart of the home, fitted with sleek units, modern appliances, and a stylish breakfast bar—perfect for relaxed family mornings. A ground-floor bathroom and utility room add practicality to the design.
Upstairs, the first floor has three generously sized bedrooms with built-in storage and a smart family bathroom. The converted loft provides two further bedrooms—one with an ensuite—and a separate study, making it perfect for home working or a quiet retreat.
Step outside and discover the rear garden complete with outbuilding, offering an additional space for an activity of your choosing.

A word from the owners...
"This has been our beloved family home for over 30 years — a place filled with warmth, laughter, and countless cherished memories. It’s where we raised our children, celebrated birthdays, and shared everyday moments that have meant the world to us. Now, with our children grown and starting their own lives, it’s time for us to turn the page and downsize — but it’s not easy to say goodbye. One of the things we’ve always been proud of is the character of the house itself. The beautiful Victorian features give it a timeless charm — high ceilings, generous rooms, and a sense of solidity that’s hard to find in modern homes. We’ve kept it lovingly maintained, always making sure it felt welcoming and well cared for. The location has been equally special. With the park just across the road, peaceful walks have always been a joy. The bus stop is only steps away, the train station is nearby, and Stratford — with its shops, restaurants, and excellent transport links — is just a five-minute drive, offering convenience without compromising the quiet character of the neighbourhood. The local schools — both junior and senior — have served our family well, and the area has a lovely sense of community that’s hard to find. We truly hope the next family who lives here finds as much happiness in this home as we have. It’s more than just a house — it’s a place to grow, to feel safe, and to make memories that last a lifetime."
