Exquisite Victorian Detached Villa with Breathtaking Contemporary Extension

An exquisite detached Victorian villa, meticulously restored and spectacularly extended to create a truly exceptional home, where magnificent period architecture meets cutting-edge contemporary design. Quite simply, a property of extraordinary quality, with an attention to detail and standard of finish that must be seen to be fully appreciated.

Every inch of this remarkable home has been thoughtfully considered, beautifully designed and finished to an uncompromising standard. The owners have undertaken an extraordinary programme of restoration and renovation, preserving the grandeur and character of the original Victorian villa whilst introducing a sensational two-storey contemporary extension that transforms the way the house is experienced. The result is nothing short of breathtaking.

From the moment you enter, the quality of craftsmanship is immediately apparent. Exquisite original features sit effortlessly alongside carefully commissioned bespoke additions, including magnificent marble fireplaces, bespoke timber sash windows and beautifully designed custom shutters. The restoration has been executed with immense care and sensitivity, ensuring the period elegance of the house remains at the heart of its character.

The ground floor offers two magnificent reception rooms, both wonderfully proportioned and rich in period charm, with beautiful marble fireplaces housing wood-burning stoves. These are elegant yet inviting spaces, perfect for both entertaining and everyday living. Two further beautifully appointed rooms currently serve as individual home offices, offering superb flexibility and the potential to provide fourth and fifth bedrooms if required.

And then comes the truly spectacular addition.

The transition from the traditional Victorian accommodation into the contemporary extension is quite extraordinary. Here, the house opens into an absolutely sensational kitchen, dining and living space, designed with exceptional architectural vision and finished to an astonishing standard. This is undoubtedly the heart of the home – a breathtaking combination of light, space, luxurious materials and impeccable contemporary design.

The bespoke, high-specification fitted kitchen is as beautiful as it is functional, incorporating premium NEFF appliances, Quooker tap, smart lighting, and exquisite detailing throughout. An entire wall of full-width bi-folding glass doors creates a wonderful connection with the newly excavated lower garden, flooding the room with natural light and allowing the interior and exterior spaces to flow effortlessly together. It is a truly outstanding setting for entertaining, family gatherings and modern everyday living. Underfloor heating warms the extension, which also hosts a utility room, and a beautifully finished WC.

The first floor is every bit as impressive.

Three superb bedrooms occupy this level, including a principal suite that is quite simply exceptional. Conceived as a luxurious private retreat, the principal bedroom leads through to a magnificent walk-in dressing room and onwards into a stunning en-suite bathroom again with underfloor heating. The design, proportions and quality of finish combine to create a suite of genuine distinction, with the feel of an exclusive boutique hotel.

The upper storey of the contemporary extension is another triumph of thoughtful design. Here, an exquisitely appointed family bathroom, again with underfloor heating showcases the same extraordinary attention to detail found throughout the house, complemented by a beautifully conceived walk-through laundry area. Even these practical spaces have been designed with remarkable care, combining sophisticated aesthetics with everyday functionality.

A further exceptional feature is the direct access from this upper level onto the enormous sun-drenched garden terrace. This fabulous elevated outdoor space is a destination in its own right, offering a wonderful setting for outdoor dining, relaxing and entertaining in the sunshine. A staircase connects the terrace to the newly landscaped lower garden, creating two distinct yet beautifully integrated outdoor areas and making exceptional use of the garden's different levels.

The transformation extends to the front of the property, where a striking contemporary garden provides an elegant introduction to the house, together with the valuable addition of off-street parking for two vehicles.

What makes this property so special is not simply the scale of the renovation or the architectural impact of the extension, but the extraordinary consistency of quality throughout. From the beautifully restored Victorian detailing to the most contemporary elements of the design, every space has been given the same meticulous attention. Nothing feels ordinary, overlooked or compromised.

This is a home of rare distinction. An exquisite celebration of Victorian craftsmanship and contemporary architecture, brought together with exceptional taste, imagination and an unwavering commitment to quality. Truly one of those remarkable properties where the reality is even more impressive than the description – viewing is absolutely essential to appreciate just how special it is.
