This beautifully arranged ground floor, semi-detached Victorian conversion combines classic proportions with a thoughtful contemporary extension, opening directly onto a private garden.
To the front of the apartment, the principal bedroom is calm and generous, defined by impressive ceiling height, elegant sash windows and original timber shutters, allowing soft light to wash across the space throughout the day. Adjacent sits a well-appointed bathroom, positioned intuitively between the sleeping quarters.
A second double bedroom overlooks a quiet internal courtyard, creating a peaceful and private setting, while a third room offers flexibility as a study, nursery or occasional bedroom, ideal for modern living.
The rear of the home has been architecturally extended, transforming the kitchen and dining area into the natural heart of the property. Here, a vaulted ceiling draws the eye upward, while Crittall glazing frames the garden beyond, dissolving the boundary between inside and out. The kitchen itself is finished in a timeless shaker style, grounding the space with warmth and craftsmanship.
This is a home that balances period character with contemporary design elegant, practical and quietly refined.
