St Quintin Avenue

Set on a tree-lined avenue, this four-bedroom house for sale combines generous proportions with a private 36-foot garden.

With off-street parking, a large garden and an open-plan footprint – not to mention nearby schools, nurseries and a strong neighbourhood feel – St Quintin Avenue is naturally attuned to family life.

Semi-detached and set back from the street behind a railed front garden, the house makes a smart first impression. A wide driveway leads to the entrance, while inside, a broad tiled hallway offers an immediate sightline through to the garden.

Everything builds towards the main living space at the rear. At the front, a separate reception room presents a contemporary interpretation of period finesse. A bay window draws in the light, while full-height fitted bookcases frame the open fireplace and panelled walls and wide-plank oak flooring bring warmth.

Beyond, the house opens into a generous kitchen, dining and family room that spans its full width. The lateral layout creates an easy sense of flow that’s mirrored in the finishes: book-matched marble tops the handleless kitchen and wraps an oversized island with seating and an integrated wine fridge. Closer to the garden, a built-in banquette provides an inviting setting for everyday meals and informal entertaining, while a relaxed seating area beneath a roof lantern is flooded with natural light, enhancing the dramatic sense of height. Bifold doors draw fully back to blur the boundary with a 36-foot lawn screened by mature trees.

A separate utility room and cloakroom add to the practical ease of the ground floor. A further room opens directly onto the garden and could serve equally well as a snug, playroom or home office.

Upstairs, the bedrooms continue the home’s generous proportions. The principal suite includes its own dressing room and a striking bathroom clad in full-height marble, with a fluted freestanding bath, double basin and walk-in shower. Two further bedrooms, both with integrated storage, share a family bathroom on this floor. The fourth bedroom occupies the top floor, where built-in eaves storage and a private bathroom create a quiet, self-contained space.
