Nestled within the desirable Aldersbrook Estate, this expansive five-bedroom period home boasts over 3,450 square feet of potential living space, including a vast loft area ripe for development (subject to planning permissions). The property is set behind secure gates and features an inviting exterior with a turret-style side elevation and a spacious front garden that provides ample off-street parking.
Upon entering, you'll be greeted by a wide hallway adorned with porcelain tiled flooring and elegant cornicing, setting the tone for the character-filled interiors throughout. High ceilings, tall sash windows, decorative covings, picture rails, and original fireplaces combine to create a home rich in historical charm.
The ground floor offers two large reception rooms bathed in natural light from their bay windows. Each room retains its original features such as intricate ceiling mouldings and feature fireplaces, making them perfect for both entertaining and relaxed family life. The heart of the home is found in the bespoke kitchen fitted with quartz worktops and high-end Neff appliances, which opens into a spacious family dining room overlooking the rear garden with large French doors. Unique touches like a built-in tropical fish aquarium add to the tranquil atmosphere of this area.
The practicality of the ground floor is enhanced by a separate utility room and a modern shower room. Additionally, there’s a cellar that provides useful storage or potential for further enhancement.
On the first floor, five ample double bedrooms await, highlighted by an impressive principal suite with a lovely bay window and an original fireplace. The fully tiled family bathroom features both a Jacuzzi bath and walk-in shower for added comfort.
