Although this residence has everything you’d want for modern family living, it also retains much of its traditional charm, including ornate fireplaces and detailed cornicing.

Enter the grand hallway through storm doors and a stained glass front door to experience the formal lounge with its large bay window and a fireplace that’s the focal point of the room.

The Canadian oak flooring and Portuguese limestone theme of the lounge continues in the family room, which is the perfect space in which to unwind, while the elegant dining room has ample space to seat eight or more for dinner.

The quirky kitchen has a variety of wall, floor and tower-mounted units in a white finish with vibrant, red granite worktops, and integrated appliances. There’s even an adorable window seat overlooking the back garden.

Also on the ground floor, you’ll find a hand utility room and a shower room.

Climb a grand, sweeping staircase to a generous landing with striking, stained glass features, to the upper floor.

The master bedroom is a luxurious and relaxing space, with wall panelling and a large bay window, wardrobe space and an en suite shower room.

There are three further double bedrooms and a single bedroom, currently used as a home office, as well as generous attic space.

Surrounded by gardens with luscious greenspace beyond, this home has a large driveway, a paved area to enjoy in the summer, a greenhouse with space for seating, out-sheds, a garage and a magnificent lawn area.
