A stunning Victorian semi-detached Villa dating back to 1850, facing Cassland
Gardens (now known as Kit Crowley Gardens), which has been sympathetically
modernised whilst retaining glorious, original, period features, set inside a
facade oozing kerb appeal, history and grandeur.
This stunning family home is versatile in its layout with the option of using
it as a spacious 4 bedroom home with a self-contained apartment on the ground floor
or as a more conventional full family home with 5 bedrooms, 2 spacious reception
rooms, spacious kitchen leading to a veranda, 2.5 bathrooms and multiple
additional storage spaces. The ‘split’ of the property has been done to easily
allow the owner to convert it within a few minutes as and when needed.
The raised ground
floor is a real highlight of the property. The front reception room, facing
south and towards Cassland Gardens, has two large, arched windows bringing in
light throughout the day. With beautiful thick floorboards and a stunning
marble fireplace the room is spacious whilst feeling cozy, with plenty of character.
The room is complete with cast iron radiators and original wooden shutters
which have been meticulously maintained.
Across the bright and
open entrance hall, you have the kitchen. This room is charming with beautiful
cornicings, ceiling rose, feature marble fireplace with Swedish log burner with premium modern fixtures such as a
Smeg stainless steel range cooker. There is plenty of space for a large dining
table as currently is or to remodel and add a large island. It leads onto the
veranda, both overlooking the rear garden. The veranda adds an accessible outdoor
space when entertaining guests and family in the kitchen and being covered
gives a sheltered space to use all year round. It has stairs down to the main
garden for ease.
The raised ground
floor is complete with a guest W/C and an east facing window in the hallway
providing lots of morning light.
Unusually, the lower
ground floor boasts great ceiling height to all rooms. This floor can be used
as a separate self-contained one bedroom ground floor property to rent out, or
for family to come and stay or can be easily re-integrated back to the rest of
the house within minutes. As a self-contained 800 square foot one bedroom flat
there is a separate entrance, spacious reception room with semi open plan
kitchen, huge bedroom and walk in shower room, with an additional storage and
utility cupboard.
As part of the whole
house, this whole floor would add an additional reception room, shower room,
bedroom and very spacious utility room. It does allow the new owner to remodel
the house to use the bottom floor as a very large and bright, triple aspect
kitchen, dining and living room if required. There is also masses of potential (STPP)
to extend the property to the rear and side.
The top two floors comprise of four double bedrooms all with that gorgeous
Victorian character that is so desirable and face the charming rear garden or
the gardens to the front. Ornate fireplaces are the main feature of most
bedrooms with high ceilings, large windows and the original refurbished
floorboards.
There is another four
piece bathroom suite on the top floor with separate shower and bath. There is a
large window overlooking the gardens to the front.
The hallways and stairs throughout are bright with a skylight prominent on the
top floor whilst each floor has a large space which can be used as reading
nooks and storage.
The wide, brick walled garden is just over 60 foot long and a fantastic space
full of mature shrubbery, beautiful flowers and plants providing a real calming
oasis to relax in. With separate sections for dining, sunbathing and for the
green fingered the space has been carefully configured for a modern day family.
There is additionally side access to the garden from the street, great for
bringing muddy pets and bikes onto the property without going through the
house.
