Set on a substantial 0.28-acre plot in a Conservation area, this spacious 5/6-bedroom semi-detached house blends period character with practical family living. Two reception rooms with open fireplaces, high ceilings and sash-style timber windows create a warm, traditional feel while the fitted kitchen/breakfast room and utility add day-to-day convenience. The landscaped garden, paved terraces and pond offer generous outdoor space for children and entertaining.
Accommodation spreads over three floors, including a large office on the second floor and two attic bedrooms — useful for teenagers, guests or flexible family use. There is a cellar accessed from the utility room, gas-fired central heating via a Worcester boiler, double glazing, and an EV charging point at the double oak carport with electric gated driveway providing off-street parking.
Practical considerations are clearly stated: the property sits in a Conservation area so alterations are likely restricted, council tax is described as quite expensive, and the listing includes a conflicting construction note (1991–1995) despite strong Victorian architectural features — buyers should confirm build date and any planning constraints. Overall this is a roomy, characterful family home in a very affluent area, a short walk to Shortlands station and well-regarded schools.
