This is a period home that’s been carefully brought up to date. Set on East Road, in the heart of the Nutley Lane Conservation Area, it offers a considered balance of character and practicality.
The front lounge is deliberately cocooning — a room for relaxed evenings. Deep, considered colours wrap around an exposed brick chimney breast, where a working log burner becomes the natural focal point. It’s the sort of space that comes into its own in autumn, when the light drops early and the fire is lit without ceremony. The house opens out as you move through it. At its centre, the kitchen breakfast room is where most of the day unfolds. The design epitomises modern rustic — dark shaker cabinetry, solid oak worktops, and industrial-style hardware that gives it a quiet confidence. A breakfast bar invites a habitual coffee, as well as the end-of-day glass of wine. It’s equally practical — a place for homework, quick lunches, and conversation that drifts on longer than intended.
Parquet flooring draws you through to the rear of the house. A smartly finished ground floor shower room sits neatly between the kitchen and the extended sitting area, a practical addition. Beyond, the rear reception space is designed for flexibility — dining, reading, or simply opening the doors and letting the garden become part of the room. In warmer months, those bifold doors stay open. The patio comes into its own here — easy for weekend barbecues or long, unhurried brunches — while the lawn beyond is left for play, or just space to breathe.
The bedrooms are arranged across three floors. The principal bedroom on the first floor is particularly well positioned, with built-in wardrobes and a traditional iron mantel that anchors the room without overwhelming it. Two further bedrooms sit alongside, served by a well-appointed family bathroom. Above, the loft conversion has been thoughtfully handled, creating a spacious, tucked-away bedroom that feels both private and adaptable.
Then there’s the lower ground floor — often the difference between a house that works and one that truly flexes with modern life. Here, an additional double room offers that increasingly sought-after extra space: a guest suite, a playroom, a studio, or a proper work-from-home setup, away from the main flow of the house. This property also benefits from coveted off road parking for two cars.
