Summary
This opulent residence, with its timeless charm and stately presence, is a true embodiment of the grandeur and elegance of the Victorian era and arguably one of the finest examples of Victorian architecture in the area. Steeped in history, the residence was originally built in 1897 as a 'gentleman's villa' and has since been sympathetically extended over the years to create the superb property that now stands, boasting over 3,000 square feet of charming accommodation and still retaining many period features. 

Description
From the classic covered porch, upon entering the property, you'll step into a foyer that exudes old-world charm, with its grand staircase, stained glass windows and beautifully preserved Minton flooring. A guest cloakroom is located off the hall.

The house showcases high ceilings, large windows that allow natural light to flood in and fireplaces that add warmth and coziness, creating an ambiance of comfort and luxury.

The living spaces are both vast and inviting, with multiple reception rooms that provide the perfect setting for hosting formal gatherings, intimate family evenings, or quiet moments of contemplation. The two original reception rooms include both the sumptuous drawing room (with beautiful bay window seating and wood burning stove) and a formal dining room, perfect for hosting elaborate dinner parties and celebrations, enjoying a stunning open fireplace and period surround. Later additions include the home office (enjoying dual aspect views of the garden), snug with fitted book casing and generous family room. The family room is a fantastic space, designed to be both comfortable and functional, where families come together to relax. This versatile space offers a cozy and inviting atmosphere for a variety of activities, from movie nights to game days, and even a potential 'teenage suite' complete with built in wardrobes.

A useful utility room adjoins the kitchen and offers space for washing/drying facilities as well as housing the boiler (installed in 2022).
