***GUIDE PRICE £1,400,000 - £1,500,000*** A beautifully renovated and extended four-bedroom Victorian home, combining contemporary design with period character, set on a peaceful no-through road backing directly onto a designated nature reserve. Offering exceptional privacy and a stunning green outlook, this remarkable property enjoys a unique setting within Zone 2 London.
The quality of the refurbishment is immediately apparent, from the attractive York stone entrance steps to the meticulously restored original features found throughout the home.
The welcoming entrance hall leads into an elegant double reception room where exposed timber flooring, original doors, intricate ceiling mouldings and period skirting boards have been carefully restored and reinstated. Bespoke cabinetry, a Chesneys limestone fireplace and a Charnwood wood-burning stove create a warm and sophisticated living space.
To the rear, a full-width extension has transformed the property into a spectacular open-plan kitchen, dining and family room, perfectly designed for modern living and entertaining. The bespoke shaker-style kitchen features a central island, quartz worktops, integrated appliances, engineered oak flooring and underfloor heating. Thoughtful design touches, including exposed brickwork and decorative panelling, add both character and style as well as the addition of air conditioning.
Additional ground floor accommodation includes a utility room, guest WC and a charming internal courtyard. This versatile space allows natural light to flood the centre of the home while also providing side access, secure bicycle storage and a private area for al fresco dining or summer barbecues.
Bi-fold doors open onto the beautifully landscaped rear garden, designed for year-round enjoyment with a generous patio, premium artificial lawn and a backdrop of mature trees. Beyond is an impressive oak-clad, fully insulated garden room, currently arranged as a home gym but equally suited as a studio or office.
The first floor hosts a luxurious principal suite complete with bespoke dressing area, walk-in wardrobe, air conditioning and stylish en-suite shower room. A further spacious double bedroom, currently used as a guest and media room, sits alongside the well-appointed family bathroom featuring both a bathtub and separate walk-in shower and underfloor heating.
The loft has been expertly converted to create two additional double bedrooms, served by a contemporary shower room, with useful built-in storage and wardrobe space incorporated into the landing. Both top floor bedrooms also feature air conditioning.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional turnkey home finished to an exacting standard throughout. Ideally suited to families and professionals alike, the property effortlessly blends timeless Victorian charm with the comfort and practicality of modern living.
