A commanding and characterful five-bedroom detached period residence, elevated slightly within its generous plot, offering expansive living accommodation enhanced by impressive ceiling heights and distinctive pentagonal corner bays. This substantial home exudes timeless charm while delivering versatile space suited to modern family life.

Beneath the main residence, a series of additional cellar rooms offer exceptional potential—whether to further expand the living areas, create a home office or gym, or simply to enjoy the valuable storage space so essential to any growing household.

This impressive residence opens on the ground level to a welcoming entrance hall, leading into a single garage with an adjoining utility room. The heart of the home is the large u-shaped fitted kitchen, beautifully appointed with bespoke cabinetry, an original brick backsplash, and a central island—perfect for both family life and entertaining.

Beyond the kitchen lies a formal dining room, a bright and spacious sitting/living room, a dedicated study, and a delightful sunroom that enjoys serene views over the rear garden, complete with access to a rear porch.

The first floor comprises a central landing that gives way to five generously proportioned bedrooms, all benefiting from large windows that flood each room with natural light. The stylish four-piece family bathroom features a separate shower cubicle, an elegant freestanding bathtub, a hand basin, and WC. A convenient second WC is also located across the landing.

Externally, the property is set within beautifully maintained grounds arranged over two levels. The rear garden offers a decked entertaining area ideal for alfresco dining, while the front of the property provides ample off-road parking. A further highlight is the substantial 55 sqm cellar space, accessed from the first-floor hallway, offering excellent storage or scope for future conversion.

Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the space, character, and potential this distinguished home has to offer.
