Extending to an impressive approximately 3,294 sq ft (305.9 sq m), this magnificent double-fronted period residence is a truly substantial and distinguished family home, offering an exceptional sense of space, elegance and timeless character. Arranged over four floors, the property combines grand proportions and beautifully versatile accommodation with a wealth of charm, creating a home of remarkable scale and presence. From its handsome period exterior to its generous reception rooms and six bedrooms, this is a property with an unmistakable sense of grandeur, offering an exceptional setting for both family life and entertaining on a larger scale.
The ground floor provides a superb balance of reception and entertaining space. The magnificent sitting room is undoubtedly one of the property's most impressive features, measuring approximately 26'8" x 13'7" and showcasing the wonderful proportions and architectural elegance synonymous with Victorian period homes. Beautifully high ceilings, exceptionally tall windows at either end of the room and two fireplaces combine to create a space of real distinction and character. Victorian chandeliers add a further touch of timeless elegance, enhancing the room's sense of occasion while complementing its period charm. Despite its impressive scale, the room retains a wonderfully cosy and welcoming atmosphere, making it equally suited to grand entertaining occasions and relaxed evenings with family. A truly special reception room that perfectly captures the balance of grandeur, character and warmth found throughout this remarkable home.
A separate family room provides a further reception space, ideal for more informal family living, a playroom or a home office, offering flexibility to suit a variety of lifestyles.
The heart of the home is undoubtedly the beautifully bright and spacious open-plan kitchen/dining room, measuring approximately 20'3" x 19'10". This wonderful space offers an abundance of room for cooking, dining and socialising, creating a natural gathering point for family and friends. Its open-plan layout lends itself perfectly to modern family life, while providing a wonderfully welcoming environment for entertaining, from relaxed family breakfasts to larger celebratory gatherings. The generous proportions allow the kitchen and dining areas to sit comfortably together, enhancing the sense of space and flow throughout the ground floor. A separate cloakroom completes the accommodation on this level.
The upper floors continue to impress, with six bedrooms arranged across the first and second floors, offering excellent flexibility for growing families, visiting guests or those requiring dedicated workspace. The principal bedroom benefits from its own en-suite facilities, while the remaining bedrooms provide versatile accommodation for family members and guests. A family bathroom serves the additional bedrooms, with two further bedrooms on the uppermost floor adding to the property's generous and adaptable layout.
The basement provides valuable additional space, incorporating a utility room and two storage areas. This practical lower-ground level offers useful provision for laundry and household storage, complementing the extensive accommodation above.
One of the property's most appealing features is the south-facing rear garden, providing a delightful outdoor setting in which to relax, entertain and enjoy the sunshine. Offering a wonderful extension of the living space, the garden provides an attractive backdrop to the house and an ideal setting for outdoor dining, summer gatherings and peaceful afternoons in the sunshine. To the front, the handsome double-fronted façade creates an impressive first impression, while the carriage driveway provides off-road parking for approximately three cars and a motorcycle — a particularly valuable feature for a home of this size.
Throughout the house, there is a wonderful sense of space and character, with generous room dimensions and traditional proportions contributing to its enduring appeal. The property offers an exciting opportunity for a new owner to appreciate its existing charm while updating and personalising the interiors to suit contemporary tastes, subject to any necessary consents.
Combining substantial accommodation, six bedrooms, an impressive open-plan kitchen/dining room, multiple reception rooms, a south-facing garden and extensive off-road parking, 20 Florence Road represents a rare opportunity to acquire a truly exceptional period family home. Its scale, grandeur and versatility make it ideally suited to those seeking a home that combines timeless character with the space and warmth required for modern family living.
