Every detail reflects the aristocratic precision, artistry and craftsmanship of a remarkable era. - Pressed Victorian ceilings and ornate plasterwork – artistry from an era of true craftsmanship. - Marble fireplaces, stained glass and sash windows – intact, timeless, and filled with soulful light. - Victorian tiles and decorative ironwork – rare details modern homes can only envy. This residence is not for the conventional buyer. It calls to the visionary collector, the aesthete, the dreamer who desires a home with a heartbeat. With generous proportions and stately presence, it is both sanctuary and statement. Step into the gardens at dusk, and time itself seems to pause—for this house does not merely stand, it performs. Offered as a complete estate spanning 2,588 m² across two separate title deeds, this remarkable property preserves the integrity of its original grounds while offering the flexibility of future consolidation, should a purchaser so desire.
