About this property

1920s detached property which has been extensively modernised and extended to provide a wonderful balance of contemporary, open-plan living with more formal reception spaces, set behind wrought iron gates with established and secluded south-west facing gardens.

This stylish house has 1920s origins with some period features including high ceilings and picture rails but has been extensively upgraded and extended to provide a marvellous open plan kitchen/breakfast/family room with a vaulted ceiling, roof lights and expanses of glass whilst still having three more formal reception rooms.

The wide entrance hall has attractive tiling with all the rooms flowing from this space with a beautiful full height feature stained glass window at the rear offering outlooks to the garden. To the left is a useful study whilst to the right is the formal dining room with bay window. The double aspect sitting room has French doors with beautiful outlooks over the rear terrace and garden beyond and all three reception rooms have period fireplaces.

The kitchen/breakfast/family room is a standout feature of the house with a dramatic vaulted ceiling, wide expanses of glass and roof lights and stunning shaker style cabinetry with integrated appliances, a Smeg range cooker, Samsung fridge/freezer and a generous island unit with breakfast bar. There is plenty of space for a dining table and chairs as well as a sofa and the tiled flooring is replicated on the terrace giving a real feeling of bringing the outside in. Off the kitchen, there is a useful utility room with access out and a downstairs wc from the hallway.

The elegant staircase opens into a wide galleried landing with four double bedrooms accessed from here. A double aspect principal bedroom to the front has a generous en-suite bath/shower room with the remaining three bedrooms using the well-fitted family bath/shower room

Outside
