Description

This four-bedroom detached residence is fabulously presented and occupies a large and elevated plot, well positioned within the Georgian market town of Stamford.

Internally the property is presented to a high standard combining architectural character with contemporary living, underpinned by a calm, luxurious interior scheme, curated in collaboration with renowned local interior designers NGI. The result is a light-filled, elegant home that feels both established and effortlessly modern.

Originally built in 1928, the home has gone under considerable renovation and extension and now features, four bedrooms, four bathrooms, and two reception rooms in addition to the kitchen and utility room. The property sits within private, landscaped gardens of approximately 0.35 of an acre, complete with off-road parking for several vehicles and is within walking distance of the town centre.

Approached by a stepped pathway, through the landscaped front garden, the welcoming entrance hall leads through to the rear of the property where the expansive kitchen, living and dining area provide a wonderful hub of the home. This open plan space is a stand-out room, with underfloor heating, porcelain tiles, and sensational views over the rear garden via two sets of French doors.

The kitchen has been designed and fitted by contemporary interiors NGI, providing a sophisticated design with integrated Miele appliances including double ovens, extractor fan, gas hob, and dishwasher. A vaulted ceiling with Velux windows floods the area with natural light, and the double aspect windows provide views of both the front and rear garden. The pantry provides additional storage with space for a stand-alone fridge-freezer.

The utility provides a secondary rear access, complete with space for laundry appliances. The current owners have fitted a large wine store, which is fitted with two large wine fridges (available by separate negotiation).


The open plan sitting and dining area flows from the kitchen, to create the perfect space for family life and entertaining. Two sets of French doors lead out onto the rear terrace, perfect for alfresco entertaining, whilst enjoying views over the elevated garden.

To the front of the property is a separate, dual aspect sitting room with a large bay window to the southern elevation, this relaxing and tranquil space provides a secondary reception space, perfect for relaxing of an evening away from the hustle and bustle of family life.

The hallway provides further in-built storage, and a downstairs W.C. completes the ground floor.

Ascending to the first floor, the landing provides access to the four well-proportioned bedrooms, three of which are en suite and the fourth is served by the family bathroom.
