Description Set in a desirable residential location, this imposing Edwardian semi detached residence has been thoughtfully extended to create an elegant and generously proportioned family home. Retaining much of its original character and charm, the property is distinguished by high ceilings, tall sash windows, original panelled doors, timber flooring, and a selection of attractive fireplaces throughout.

The heart of the home is a bespoke, fully fitted kitchen with ample cabinetry, high quality appliances, and stylish finishes ideal for family life and entertaining alike.

Upstairs, the first floor galleried landing offers a delightful sense of space and light, leading to four generously sized bedrooms. The principal suite benefits from a private dressing lobby with built in wardrobes, linking the bedroom to a well appointed en suite bathroom. A further beautifully designed family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms, each of which is well proportioned and full of natural light.
