Upon approach, the house has great kerb appeal with a stunning Farrow & Ball white painted brick façade, large sash bay windows surrounded by detailed masonry. There is wide paved driveway big enough for two cars and a large original Victorian style front door that is embedded with frosted windows.
A grand wide entrance hall housing the staircase greets upon entry, with high ceilings and carpeted flooring that leads up the staircase on runners. At the end of the hallway there is a space under the stairs for hanging coats and shoes with a window that offers natural light and a view down the side return to the garden.
The double reception room boasts very generous proportions and some nice period features such as high ceilings, cornicing with ceiling roses, two reclaimed Chesney marble fireplaces with working fires, stripped original wooden flooring and a large double glazed bay sash window that illuminates the room with natural light.
