This substantial Edwardian-style detached house sits in the sought-after Streetgate area and offers generous family living over a large footprint. Substantially extended to provide six reception rooms, including a dramatic full-width orangery and a bright snug, the home balances period character — bay windows, decorative fireplaces and stained-glass doors — with more modern fittings such as a shaker-style kitchen and Silestone worktops.
Arranged over principal living floors with four double bedrooms upstairs, the layout suits family life and home working: there’s a dedicated office, multiple formal and informal reception spaces and a large boarded attic offering scope for further adaptation (subject to any required consents). Outside, a gated paved driveway and an approximately 50-foot garage plus tack room deliver exceptional storage and parking; the rear garden is divided into paved, lawn and raised decked areas and is private and well enclosed.
Practical points to note: the property is freehold and offered with no onward chain, which can speed completion. Broadband speeds are average for the area and council tax is above average. The house sits in a very affluent neighbourhood with good local schools and amenities, making it an attractive long-term family home, but any buyer planning major alterations should allow for planning or listed-building considerations given the period character.
