5 bedroom detached house for sale

This character-filled home offers over 3,000 sq ft of versatile space, beautifully blending Arts & Crafts charm with modern living. A hidden gem on a wonderfully private plot measuring a third of an acre, circa 0.7 miles from the vibrant heart of Westbourne Village.

Upon entering the property via an entrance vestibule, with access to a cloakroom, you’re immediately greeted by a sense of beautiful character. The wide, welcoming hallway sets the tone, with original beams overhead, light oak flooring underfoot, and elegant glass-panelled doors leading through to the main living space.

To the left, the heart of the home unfolds: a spectacular kitchen/living/dining area extending over 38 feet in length. This sociable, open-plan layout enjoys views of the garden beyond, with beautiful arched windows and two sets of bespoke bench seating framing the space. The kitchen itself features a central island, extensive bespoke timber cabinetry, a butler sink, and a striking five-ring gas range oven.
