From the moment you step up the granite steps onto the tiled porch, the home’s historic charm is clear. The striking red brick façade is complemented by granite block detailing which sets the tone for the elegant interiors. Internally the gracious and welcoming entrance hall stretches an impressive length, defined by exquisite ceiling heights, decorative centre roses, and two elegant arches that enhance the sense of space and symmetry. Floor to ceiling glazed doors draw the eye through to the conservatory and mature gardens beyond. The principal reception rooms set left and right of the entrance hall are beautifully proportioned and rich in original features.
