"A substantial and characterful Victorian home offering exceptional space, flexibility and mature gardens in a prime setting."
The Property
Westwood is a house of real presence and remarkable flexibility, arranged over four generous floors and perfectly suited to the changing needs of family life. There is space here for everyone—not just to live, but to grow, connect and feel at home.
The welcoming entrance hall sets the tone immediately, leading to three reception rooms that offer both elegance and everyday comfort. The drawing room provides a beautiful setting for Christmas gatherings and celebrations, while the dining room invites long Sunday lunches and milestone moments shared with friends and family. A more relaxed sitting room offers a cosy retreat for evenings together—somewhere to read, unwind and spend time as a family.
At the heart of the house lies the kitchen and garden room. Light-filled and sociable, this is where daily life naturally gathers—breakfast before school, homework at the table, conversations over dinner and laughter that spills into the garden. French doors open directly onto the outside space, making it easy for children to move between indoors and out while remaining in sight.
A traditional back kitchen, utility room and cloakroom help manage the practicalities of family life, keeping muddy boots, school bags and busy routines neatly organised. Extensive cellar rooms provide excellent storage for everything that comes with an active household.
Upstairs, the accommodation continues to impress. The first floor offers four generous double bedrooms and two bath/shower rooms, ideal for parents and younger children. The second floor provides three further double bedrooms, a box room and an additional bathroom—perfect for teenagers wanting their own space, visiting relatives, or dedicated study and hobby rooms.
Externally
The gardens wrap around three sides of the house, providing privacy, beauty and space to play. The deep front garden screens the property from the road and creates a wonderful sense of arrival, while the private driveway offers parking for several cars.
To the side, a sunny terrace becomes the backdrop for summer lunches, barbecues and evening drinks. The rear garden surrounds the garden room, creating a green and peaceful outlook and a safe place for children to explore, play and imagine.
