Hillbrow House is a beautifully presented detached Edwardian residence offering extensive and flexible accommodation arranged over four floors, ideal for multi-generational living. Extending to approximately 5,533 sq. Ft., the house retains classic Edwardian proportions with high ceilings, attractive period features throughout and outstanding far reaching views.

The main house is entered via a welcoming reception hall leading to three elegant reception rooms: A double aspect drawing room, a dining room with a door onto the terrace and a sitting room with a large bay window, all featuring fireplaces. The bespoke Martin Moore kitchen/breakfast room is a standout space, centred around a large granite-topped island with integrated dining, complemented by fitted units, integrated appliances and space for informal seating. The kitchen enjoys superb north-facing views and leads through to a utility room, with a cloakroom completing the ground floor.

A particular highlight is the lower ground floor, which is accessible via the main house and also has its own direct garden access. As such, it can operate (as a leisure space for the main house) or as a self-contained apartment if required, and previously served as independent accommodation, making it ideal for extended family, guests or ancillary use. The lower ground floor comprises a kitchen/dining area, a living room, a bedroom, and a shower room, with additional basement storage.

The first floor offers four double bedrooms, including one with en-suite, alongside a family bathroom and separate shower room. The second floor is home to the principal suite with a bespoke dressing room and luxurious bathroom, plus a sixth bedroom or study, also with its own en suite bathroom.
