Nestled behind a mature front garden, this impressive double-fronted detached residence offers a rare opportunity for renovation and investment. On the market for the first time in over four decades, this substantial property spans 5,434 square feet across three levels, providing ample space for customization to suit modern lifestyles. Upon entering, you are greeted by a grand entrance hall featuring a striking fireplace, setting the tone for the home’s character. The layout includes multiple entertaining areas such as a drawing room, dining room, and family room, complemented by a spacious kitchen and breakfast area that opens into an informal living space. A separate laundry room and guest cloakroom add practicality to the design. The first floor features a large principal suite with an en-suite bathroom and extensive dressing area, alongside another bedroom suite with its own bathroom. Two additional bedrooms share a family bathroom on this level. The second floor hosts two more bedrooms and an additional bathroom, along with generous eaves storage that could be further utilized. The outdoor space is equally noteworthy, boasting a beautifully landscaped west-facing garden that stretches 157 feet—ideal for outdoor gatherings or potential expansion of living space (subject to necessary permissions).
