This substantial detached family home in Stoneygate offers generous living space across circa 2,400 sq ft, arranged over multiple floors. Original period features — sash windows, high ceilings, parquet floors, exposed beams and decorative leaded glass — give the house strong character while a large south-facing landscaped garden and conservatory add outdoor-focused living and entertaining space. Two garages and a driveway provide convenient parking for families.
The ground floor has two formal reception rooms, a large kitchen/breakfast room with integrated appliances and a useful pantry, plus a practical cloakroom. Upstairs are five double bedrooms (one en suite), a family bathroom and a separate WC — convenient but modest given the number of bedrooms. The boarded, insulated loft increases storage and potential for conversion subject to consent.
Practical considerations are straightforward and important: the property sits on solid brick walls built early 20th century and is assumed to have no cavity insulation, and glazing is secondary rather than full modern double glazing. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators. Council tax is noted as quite expensive. These points mean some modernisation or insulation upgrades may be sensible to improve comfort and running costs.
Overall this is a rare, well-proportioned family house in a very affluent, low-crime area near strong local schools, parks and city amenities. It will suit buyers seeking period character, generous rooms and a secluded garden with potential to update utilities and thermal performance over time.
