Description
This beautifully presented, elegant three-storey family home extends to approximately 6,438 sq ft and was built by the renowned master craftsman W.G. Tarrant in the late 1800s. Its attractive brick and tile façade, complemented by an impressive gravelled driveway, sets the tone for this exceptional property. It is set in majestic grounds extending to approx. 0.62 of an acre, providing more than generous parking as well as beautiful kerb appeal.
Inside, the property boasts a wealth of original period features, characteristic of homes of this era. The exceptionally generous accommodation is perfectly suited to the demands of modern living, offering ample space for both everyday life and entertaining, including those all-important summer gatherings.
The house has been thoughtfully extended over the years, enhancing both its space and versatility. A particular highlight is the separate staircase leading to an impressive section of the property, currently arranged as two spacious office areas measuring 21’9” x 18’7” and 19’3” x 18’7”. Ideal for those working from home, this flexible space could also be adapted for a variety of uses, such as a media room, games room, or additional living area.
The hub of every home evolves around the kitchen/breakfast room and this elegant room is no exception to that rule. With triple aspects views and access to the beautifully landscaped rear garden.
The property offers three separate reception rooms, each of generous and elegant proportions. The principal sitting room, measuring approximately 27’4” x 21’1”, beautifully retains the period charm and character that make this home so special.
Leading off the kitchen/breakfast room are a number of practical additions, including a cloakroom, a useful utility room, and a separate shower room—ideal for use in connection with the outdoor swimming pool. There is also integrated access to a double-width garage.
A particularly elegant reception hall, featuring original wood flooring and a striking fireplace, sets the tone for the home. From here, a graceful half-turn staircase rises to a spacious landing, providing access to five well-proportioned bedrooms and the family bathroom. Both the principal bedroom and guest bedroom two benefit from ensuite facilities, with the principal bedroom also enjoying a generous dressing area.
