IF YOU LIVED HERE...

From the moment you step along the smart monochrome encaustic-tiled path and under the arch of wisteria, it’s hard not to be completely charmed. You can feel the love, care, and attention that’s gone into creating a home brimming with character and individuality.
The main living space sets the tone straight away. Light pours in through the bay window dressed with crisp plantation shutters, bouncing off the original wooden floorboards that flow right through the double reception. An original tiled fireplace anchors the room, while coving and a ceiling rose nod politely to the home’s Victorian roots. The deep green walls add just the right amount of cosy ambience.
The kitchen/diner is where things really wow. Exposed ceiling beams give a sense of height, while chevron parquet flooring and beautifully crafted patchwork wood-fronted cabinetry topped with soft grey marble bring warmth and texture. A Belfast double sink, chef’s oven, and exposed brick wall give it all a quietly confident charm, with a geometric tiled splashback adding a final flourish. Throw open the bifold doors, and the garden becomes an instant extension of the space.
Outside, the garden has been designed with the same eye for detail, decked for easy upkeep and framed by moulded concrete planters bursting with bamboo, ferns, and lush greenery. There’s an elevated platform with built-in seating wrapped around a firepit, perfect for evenings that go on longer than planned. You’ll also find a dedicated BBQ area complete with an outdoor sink and an open shower - ideal for muddy boots, bikes, or cooling down on a hot summer day. What more could you want? Well, pull down the screen over the bi-fold doors for a projector and you've even got your own outdoor cinema.
Downstairs, the cellar has been put to good use as a laundry and storage space, keeping the practical stuff tucked neatly away.
Upstairs, four bedrooms sit comfortably on the first floor. The largest, at the front, mirrors the bay layout below, with a cast-iron fireplace, whitewashed floorboards, and calm, neutral tones. The second double, wrapped in warm terracotta with a built-in desk and shelving, makes a perfect home office. Two further bedrooms share the same pale flooring and soft palette - one currently doubling as a very enviable walk-in wardrobe.
The bathroom continues the home’s quietly confident aesthetic - light and airy, with a freestanding bath and shower combination, and soft daylight filtering through the sash window.
This is a house that’s been loved and thoughtfully evolved, not overdone, just beautifully balanced. Full of personality, practical where it matters, and ready for the next chapter of its story.
