About this home

Step inside and you’re welcomed by a home rich in character. Original features have been carefully preserved, from the ornate cornicing and picture rails to the varnished hardwood floors and intricate lincrusta friezes. The living spaces are spacious and bright, with high ceilings and elegant fireplaces that act as focal points.

The kitchen is a real highlight—thoughtfully designed in a traditional shaker style with pale grey cabinetry and quartz work surfaces, it offers a stylish yet timeless finish. An inset Belfast sink sits beneath the window, while a stunning range cooker forms a central feature for those who love to cook. Karndean flooring adds practicality with a touch of warmth, complementing the original cast iron range and the built-in wooden alcove cupboard—both of which remain perfectly preserved. The walk-in pantry and adjoining utility room have been designed to match the kitchen, ensuring a cohesive and well-planned space, complete with Velux windows and patio doors leading out to the garden.

The converted cellar offers additional flexibility and is currently used as a home gym.

Upstairs, three generous bedrooms continue the period theme, while the bathroom has been reimagined with a statement egg-shaped bath. A wooden staircase provides access to a lockable attic room, ideal for hobbies or storage. It is currently used as a fourth bedroom.

Outside, the west-facing rear garden is a wonderful space to enjoy in the warmer months. A stepped lawn is framed by mature planting and traditional stone walls, providing both colour and structure. Wallflowers and climbing plants bring seasonal interest, and there’s ample room for garden furniture and entertaining. The garden also enjoys late afternoon and evening sun, making it ideal for summer barbecues or simply relaxing after a day’s work. A gate at the rear gives convenient access to a quiet back lane.
