Description

From the first glimpse of the bay window framed in stone, the home feels timeless and full of promise.

The garden path leads to a spacious porch where light pours in from every angle. This bright entrance offers plenty of room for shoes, coats, and bikes, and sets the tone for a home that feels practical as well as welcoming. Inside, the hallway continues the calm, neutral feel, with clean lines, a soft palette, and ornate plaster coving along the ceiling. A feature window above the door adds another touch of character, catching the afternoon light.
To the left of the hall, a downstairs WC has been neatly tucked away. Grey half-tiling pairs with a modern white suite, and a chrome heated towel rail adds warmth. Laminate flooring runs through from the hall, creating an easy flow between each space.

To the right, a door with a glass centre opens into a beautifully spacious lounge. This room captures the essence of the home's Edwardian heritage, complete with intricate heritage ceiling plasterwork and a deep bay window fitted with new glazing. A gas log burner stove sits proudly beneath a statement mantelpiece, bringing both warmth and charm. The room's symmetry and soft light make it an inviting space for evenings by the fire or quiet mornings with a book.

Across the hall, the kitchen has been newly fitted by Magnet and designed with modern living in mind. Cashmere-coloured cabinets reach across three sides of the room, paired with quartz worktops and a breakfast bar. Every detail has been carefully considered, from the integrated oven and separate grill to the built-in dishwasher, ceramic hob, and large fridge and freezer. The new combi boiler is discreetly tucked away, keeping the space clean and uncluttered.
A large window at the far end allows natural light to fill the room, creating a bright and uplifting space that feels at the heart of the home.
Adjoining the kitchen is the second lounge and dining area. A living flame gas fire and space to accommodate a TV bordered by arched alcoves form the focal point here, creating a comfortable, relaxed space for gathering. Through the open archway, the dining room enjoys a garden outlook, with patio doors that open into the outdoor space. Grey carpet and soft neutral walls bring a sense of continuity, and the open layout allows the rooms to flow naturally into one another.

From the hallway, follow the staircase up, fitted with the same new, neutral-coloured carpet, onto a wide landing filled with light. There is access to the loft above via drop-down ladders, revealing a boarded storage area with two Velux windows and plenty of scope for future projects.
The principal bedroom sits to the right of the staircase. A large window overlooks the front, framing views of the peaceful street below. The layout leaves space for a king-size bed, wardrobes, and a dressing table, with subtle feature spotlights overhead that lend a soft glow. New windows and gentle tones make this room feel calm and restful.
The second bedroom, overlooking the garden, shares the same airy atmosphere. There is space here for a double bed, drawers, and wardrobes. Every room in the house has been freshly decorated in neutral colours, making the entire upstairs an opportunity for complete personalisation.

Bedroom three sits beside; light and spacious, it would make an ideal nursery, hobby room, or peaceful study, perfectly sized for flexible modern living. The same soft carpet runs underfoot, giving the upper floor a feeling of warmth and flow.
The family bathroom sits at the end of the landing. This four-piece suite feels both elegant and practical, complete with a double walk-in shower featuring a drench-style head, a deep bathtub with a handheld attachment, and a floating vanity unit with drawers beneath for storage. Cream tiles rise halfway up the walls and continue around the shower, while a large back-lit mirror and soft lighting make the room bright and tranquil.

The rear garden has been designed for everyday living, replete with patio and laid with artificial grass to create a tidy, low-maintenance space that can be enjoyed all year round. New fencing provides privacy, and there's plenty of room for outdoor dining or a few pots and planters to add colour.
To the side, a block-paved driveway offers practical parking and leads directly to the garden and side path, which returns to the front of the property.

Hawthorn Villa has undergone a full suite of refurbishment, including a new roof, damp-proof course, and windows, as well as a new central heating system with a combi boiler. The Magnet kitchen, family bathroom, and downstairs cloakroom are all brand new, giving the property a sense of quiet luxury and long-lasting comfort.
Throughout the renovation, the home's character has been carefully preserved. The decorative ceilings, bay window, and generous proportions remain true to the Edwardian period, while modern finishes and neutral design choices make it ready to move straight into.
