A beautifully reimagined three-bedroom, Grade II listed Victorian cottage, occupying a desirable corner position within the Queen’s Park Estate Conservation Area. Thoughtfully extended and comprehensively renovated by the current owners, the house seamlessly blends its Victorian heritage with considered contemporary design, bespoke finishes and an abundance of natural light. Entered from the side, a welcoming hallway introduces elegant herringbone flooring, which continues through to the principal living spaces, creating a sense of flow and continuity. To the rear, an impressive extension has transformed the ground floor into a beautifully proportioned, open-plan kitchen and dining space, designed with both everyday living and entertaining in mind. A timeless Shaker-style kitchen is complemented by stone worktops and integrated appliances, while oversized, remotely operated skylights flood the space with natural light. Double doors open directly onto the west-facing garden, creating a seamless connection between inside and out. The kitchen and dining area flows into a separate, inviting reception space, where bespoke cabinetry has been carefully incorporated into the alcoves, providing both practical storage and a refined architectural detail. To the front of the house, the original reception room has been thoughtfully repurposed as a generous third bedroom, complete with fitted wardrobes. Upstairs, two further well-proportioned double bedrooms benefit from bespoke fitted storage. The standout family bathroom has been designed with a luxurious, spa-like feel, featuring a statement freestanding bathtub, generous walk-in shower, twin basins and full-height tiling, alongside the added indulgence of an integrated waterproof television. Outside, the west-facing garden provides a wonderfully private extension of the living space. Thoughtfully landscaped for low-maintenance enjoyment, with composite decking and substantial surrounding walls, it offers a secluded setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. The property’s corner position further enhances its sense of privacy, while the additional side access provides everyday practicality. The result is an exceptionally well-considered home, where period character, contemporary architecture and carefully curated interiors come together to create a distinctive and beautifully balanced living environment.
