Set on a substantial mature plot in a comfortable suburban setting, this six-bedroom stone-built detached house combines traditional Gothic Revival character with large, flexible family living spaces. The property offers three reception rooms, an impressive open-plan dining kitchen, and a principal suite with vaulted ceiling, suited to families wanting generous room proportions and interior drama. A second-floor sauna and integrated leisure spaces add a rare touch of luxury for a home of this age.
Externally, the plot provides extensive driveway parking, electronically controlled gated access, and a detached double garage with workshop and built-in bar — practical for vehicles, hobbies, and entertaining. Landscaped lawns and patios create strong indoor–outdoor flow from multiple reception rooms and the kitchen, supporting alfresco dining and family recreation.
Practical points are straightforward: the house is freehold, gas‑central heated with double glazing, rated EPC C and constructed around 2000. Council Tax is Band G, which will be a higher ongoing cost, and the size and period detailing mean running and upkeep costs should be allowed for. Overall, this is a substantial, well-appointed family home offering space, style and scope for modern family life.
