Rich in original character, the property showcases beautifully preserved Minton tiled flooring, high ceilings, ornate cornicing, picture rails, original panelled doors, sash and bay windows, servant bell system and striking turret-style frontage, whilst substantial investment by the current owners has transformed the home with a new heating system, contemporary and luxurious Easy Bathrooms suites, and an outstanding triple-aspect open plan living kitchen diner featuring a stunning Wren Shaker kitchen with Calcutta marble worktops, matching large breakfast island, integrated appliances, Range cooker and anthracite bi-fold doors opening onto the gardens. This is a truly substantial family home offering an abundance of flexible accommodation, outstanding outside space and exciting further potential including loft conversion possibilities and a potential building plot (subject to necessary permissions.

The inner hallway leads to a stylish ground floor shower room, utility room with access to the gardens, understairs boiler cupboard and a second staircase, before opening into the spectacular extended living kitchen diner with its triple-aspect design, family seating area and dining space. A side entrance provides access to the driveway through a newly constructed porch.
To the first floor, a generous split-level landing serves five excellent double bedrooms and a luxurious four-piece family bathroom, whilst the master bedroom enjoys a beautifully appointed underfloor heated ensuite shower room. One bedroom also benefits from a separate WC and access to a loft room, with additional loft spaces offering excellent scope for further development.
