Tucked away in an enchanting position just off Preston Park Avenue, this rarely available period home is without doubt one of the most captivating properties to come to market in recent years. Set back from the road and approached through mature grounds, it offers a charming sense of arrival that immediately sets it apart.While the property would benefit from refurbishment, it presents an exceptional opportunity. Buyers have the chance to create something truly special — whether by extending the existing footprint (STNC) or by restoring the house to an exceptional modern standard while celebrating its many original features.

The generous layout includes a large living room leading through to a formal dining room, a kitchen/breakfast room, and a versatile additional room that can serve as a home office or fifth bedroom. One of the bedrooms and one of the bathrooms are conveniently located on the ground floor, offering flexibility for guests, multigenerational living or future-proofing. Upstairs, you’ll find three further double bedrooms along with an additional bathroom, providing comfortable family accommodation.

The garden sits to the front of the house and enjoys a wonderful south/west aspect, giving it a bright, warm feel throughout the day. While not entirely secluded, the grounds have a charming, almost storybook character — mature planting, winding pathways and a gentle sense of calm that enhances the setting.This is a rare opportunity to secure a period home of real character in one of Preston Park’s most desirable locations, with scope to transform it into something extraordinary.
