The Home -
Located on one of Lower Clapton's quietest streets, this charming Victorian
house has been thoughtfully restored to create a warm and welcoming home in
which the period features blend seamlessly with the carefully planned
renovations. The loft conversion has enlarged the space to over 1, 451 square
feet including four double bedrooms, two reception rooms, a kitchen diner,
lots of original features and rear garden that floods the whole house with
natural light. Hilsea street is a peaceful no through road and sits perfectly
between Millfields Park, Chatsworth Road and all that Lower Clapton has to
offer.
**The Indoors**
The reeded glass panelled front door is painted in Farrow and ball Hague Blue.
The welcoming hallway has original floorboards and leads into the double
sitting rooms. Tastefully chosen 'Lamp Room Grey' paint creates a sense of
home that is complimented by the cornicing, ceiling rose, restored original
floorboards and sash windows. This is an incredibly bright and sunny room with
much though given to light and space. The second reception room overlooks the
rear garden and is currently set up as a ground floor bedroom with period
charm.
As you descend a few steps into the Kitchen/Diner your eyes are drawn
immediately to the large floor to ceiling double doors that open out onto the
garden and large windows to the side. The Farrow and Ball ‘Calamine’ paint
adds to the homely feel complemented with low level wooden cabinetry and
worktop, tiled splashback, wooden shelving and butler sink.
The landing area on the first floor has original floorboards and leads to the
family bathroom which has been finished in metro tiling and has a freestanding
roll top bath with shower curtain surround and underfloor heating. Also on
this floor three double bedrooms are arranged from the front to the rear of
the plan. The main bedroom is an exceptionally bright room thanks to one large
bay window and a separate window that faces the front of the home, this room
is painted in Farrow and Ball 'Hague Blue' and has wooden flooring under foot
with ample room for storage. The second and third bedrooms both look over the
rear garden and are wonderfully bright with wooden flooring underfoot.
As you ascend onto the second floor, the staircase is lit with natural light -
courtesy of a well thought out sky light. The fourth bedroom has Velux windows
allowing an abundance of natural light, ample eaves storage, and a cleverly
designed en - suite shower room.
**The Outdoors**
The rear garden is accessed via the double doors from the kitchen. The outside
area is a tranquil space, mainly paved with potted plants, wonderful apple
tree and seating area. There is potential to add a side return extension
(subject to usual planning consents)
