The Georgian House

Built in the 1920s in the Neo-Georgian style, this home offers a ceremonious coalition of delicate period details, harmonious proportions and expansive layout.

The handsome red-brick exterior, cast iron gates and manicured greenery are a precursor to the distinguished aesthetic that waits inside. Step inside, where a carved mahogany spiral staircase makes for a grand entrance. Hand-painted De Gournay paper adorns the walls. Circling this space is a series of distinguished reception rooms: to one side, a wood-paneled dining room sets the scene for evening gatherings; to the other, a classical drawing room features a carved, stucco fireplace and pillared details.

Head through to the shaker-style Smallbone kitchen, characterised by its smart parquet floors and whitewashed walls. There’s sense of countryside homeliness, with leafy views through sash windows and a cosy Aga oven. Next door, a family room has direct access to a central courtyard with a lawn – a Wendy house is complete with a slide and paddling pool, perfect outdoors entertainment for the kids.

Sliding French windows open to a garage space, where red brick walls and concrete floors offer a stylish and functional space to park your vehicle. Plus, a football table and treadmill. The master bedroom enjoys a south-facing position; a chaise longue makes for an elegant reading spot in the sun-lit bay windows, framed by opulent draped curtains. A second De Gournay mural is a striking detail here. Three further bedrooms offer pared-back palettes for a tranquil feel. Two family-sized en-suite bathrooms can be found on this floor, as well as an additional study space imagined for peaceful home working.

Upstairs, a self-contained apartment is a light-flooded, contemporary retreat. With a sleek kitchen, bedroom and bathroom, it’s the perfect space for visiting guests, working creatives or family members needing their own privacy. The roof terrace is a hidden sanctuary, complete with a canopy and barbecue for alfresco entertainment.
