Standing proudly within a substantial private plot, this six‑bedroom Victorian detached residence represents a truly exceptional opportunity. Held lovingly within the same family for more than 50 years, the property now awaits a new custodian ready to restore its grandeur and shape its next chapter.
This is a home of character, craftsmanship, and possibility - a rare combination in today’s market. A wealth of Victorian period features enriching every corner of the property including: ornate cornicing and plasterwork; high ceilings enhancing light, scale and grandeur; period fireplaces - focal points in many rooms; original timberwork; working shutters and parquet flooring - these authentic details provide a rich foundation for sympathetic modernisation, subject to the relevant consents.
Designed for family life on a grand scale this home offers six bedrooms ideal for multi-generational living, four reception rooms, perfect for entertaining or creating dedicated family spaces, large breakfasting kitchen with adjacent utility room giving access to the magnificent private rear garden.
Set within an expansive plot, the gardens are a standout feature - sweeping lawns framed by mature planting, secluded seating areas and natural pathways, space for outdoor dining, play or future garden structures - all providing a sense of privacy and tranquillity rarely found so close to town amenities.
After five decades in the same family, the property is now ready for thoughtful upgrading and modernisation - homes of this calibre, with such provenance and potential, seldom come to the market.
