Positioned on one of the boroughs most sought-after roads, Clifton House was constructed just before the 1900s and formed part of a development spearheaded by Rev Samuel Rhodes.
A picture of Victorian elegance, the home is entered through a deep arched porch that opens into a remarkable tripartite hall, unfolding into generous living spaces beyond. Natural light filters down from above, drawing the eye to intricate cornicing and a distinctive circular gallery opening.
Retaining its original Victorian layout, the ground floor comprises three expansive reception rooms, each with exceptionally high ceilings and original features. At the front, a wide bay with six-over-six sash windows is currently arranged as a dining room, with double doors leading through to a living room; both retaining working cast-iron fireplaces. The third reception room has original floorboards underfoot and is currently used as a study, overlooking the calming greenery of the garden. A sensitive restoration of the space includes a marble fireplace surround along with restored corbel and cornicing plasterwork, along with internal shutters and bespoke joinery.
The kitchen sits at the rear of the plan, defined by a charming, country-style character. A gloss red Britannia Delphi range cooker forms a striking focal point, neatly set within the chimney breast and flanked by dove-grey Shaker-style cabinetry and marble open shelving. A ladder is tucked neatly to one side, while the garden can be accessed via three points, including through the conservatory, which also accommodates a handy WC.
Ascending to the first floor, four double bedrooms are arranged off a striking cast-iron circular gallery, encircled by bespoke bookcases. The principal bedroom is filled with natural light from six-over-six sash windows and benefits from an adjoining en suite with checkerboard flooring. There is also a well-appointed family bathroom featuring a large corner bath.
The walled, south-facing garden offers a private outdoor retreat. The mature shrubs and evergreens are complemented by the flowering, purple wisteria that traces along with brickwork. There is also a small pond, a well-kept lawn and plenty of space for dining and entertaining.
Storage is well considered, with a cellar and a garage currently used as a workshop, complete with power supply and previous planning permission in place to convert it into a two-storey studio.
