Behind the façade of this classical Victorian house lies a shiny Eco secret. This exceptional, thoughtfully extended home blends modern sustainability and beautifully designed interiors with tasteful reclaimed elements and original features throughout.
Boasting an astonishing super energy efficient B rating, this is the highest possible rating for a house of this age and results in incredibly LOW monthly outgoings.
Retrofitted to a high standard in sympathy with the original 1860 build, the property is now equipped with an air source heat pump, solar energy and EV charging points at the front and rear. There are brand-new double-glazed sash windows throughout, made in Acoya - a sustainable alternative to tropical hardwoods.
Furthermore, the house enjoys advanced insulation features to include Woodfibre insulation and lime renders that allow the house to breathe as well as keeping it warm in the winter and cool in our now much hotter summers!
Offering four spacious bedrooms; principal with an ensuite, and a luxury family bathroom, the property provides an elegant yet comfortable setting, perfectly suited to modern family living.
The open-plan living space is a true highlight with an abundance of natural light and a working open fire, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

While the cloakroom with W.C incorporates a separate utility area that enhances practicality of the ground floor.

To the first and second floors, the four bedrooms, all enjoy their own slice of character with a continued mix of beach themes, original exposed brickwork, bay windows and built in cabinetry.
