Description

4 Greenhill Terrace is an exceptional and notably substantial Victorian terraced house, thoughtfully modernised and sensitively enhanced by the current owners. The result is a beautifully presented home where elegant period detail sits harmoniously alongside high quality contemporary finishes. Intricate cornicing, handsome mantelpieces and solid oak wood floors have been carefully preserved, ensuring the property retains its inherent character while offering the comfort and efficiency expected of modern living.

The front door opens into a welcoming entrance foyer, leading through to the reception hall from which the principal living spaces flow. The elegant south-facing living room is a highlight of the ground floor, featuring a generous bay window, ornate cornicing, a striking stone mantelpiece and superb oak flooring. The hall also provides access to the beautifully appointed kitchen, designed by the current owner to offer excellent storage, generous work surfaces and a highly practical layout. Positioned to the rear, the family room provides a wonderfully comfortable everyday living space, with direct access to the terrace and garden beyond. A large utility room, bathroom and extensive storage complete the ground floor accommodation.

A fine staircase rises to the first floor, where three bedrooms are located. The principal bedroom is notably generous and adjoins a further well-proportioned bedroom currently used as a dressing room, together with a luxurious en suite shower room. A further double bedroom and an impressive bay-windowed living room, offering superb flexibility as an additional reception space or bedroom, are also found on this level, along with a separate WC.

The second floor provides four further spacious double bedrooms, each with built-in storage. All are served by a well-designed Jack and Jill shower room featuring a steam shower. The primary bedroom on this floor, presently used by the owners as an additional living room, enjoys a large south-facing bay window and direct access to the en-suite shower room.

Externally, the house enjoys excellent privacy, with mature hedging to the front, along with useful storage and an electric car charging point. To the rear, a generous patio leads onto the garden, which offers ample space for mature planting, a large storage shed and further scope for landscaping.
