An architecturally reimagined 1930s semi-detached home blending period charm with a bold contemporary extension. The bay-fronted reception and original hardwood floors preserve character, while the full-width Schuco sliding doors and open-plan kitchen create a bright, social heart that flows directly to a west-facing garden. Underfloor heating across the rear living space and high-quality fittings lift everyday comfort.
The principal suite occupies the rear first floor and includes a dressing room and luxury en suite with freestanding bath and separate shower. Three further bedrooms provide flexible family accommodation: two generous doubles and a versatile single ideal for a study or nursery. Practical additions include a utility room, guest WC, integrated garage access and off-street driveway parking.
Buyers should note the house sits on solid brick walls (original construction 1900–1929) where no cavity insulation is assumed; upgrading wall insulation may be required to improve thermal efficiency. As a period property with substantial modern interventions, routine maintenance and careful servicing of bespoke glazing and mechanical systems should be expected. Offered at £600,000 for an average-sized 1,600 sq ft family home in affluent Stoneygate.
