Description
This house is truly unique and has been refurbished by the current owner to create a family home with a difference. A 1930’s double fronted house which offers spacious accommodation throughout.
The hallway is in the centre of the house, to one side is the kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with a contemporary range of cabinets with space for table & chairs, a log burning stove creates a lovely warmth to the room. The other side of the hallway is the sitting room, a beautifully proportioned triple aspect room with cedar flooring and a wonderful open fire with an Arts & Crafts mantle, inspired by the Philip Webb design in Standen House. The bay window in this room has a pelmet, inspired by the fireplace at the Bestwood Lodge as a template. The dining room is at the back of the house with an incredible fireplace mantle by William Burgess, double doors leading into the garden and a further set of double doors into the kitchen. Saloon doors lead through from the kitchen to a fabulous bar, study and utility.
On the first floor there are four beautifully proportioned double rooms, all of which benefit from being double aspect – allowing them all to be flooded with natural light, there is also a lovely family bathroom with seperate shower cubicle in addition to the claw foot bath.
