The Property
With its elegant symmetrical features, this grand double bay-fronted Victorian villa boasts origins dating back to the early 1800s. Spanning three expansive floors and featuring charming mezzanine levels and a generous cellar, this villa offers an abundance of space and sophistication. The current owners have lovingly restored and enhanced the property, creating a vibrant and inviting atmosphere perfect for both living and entertaining. Outside steps and a fanlight window frame the entrance, opening to a welcoming hall flanked by two classic reception rooms. These rooms are a blend of tradition and luxury, with high bay windows flooding the space with natural light, and grand fireplaces serving as focal points. Descend a few steps to discover an open-plan kitchen and dining area that overlooks a picturesque garden. This space is bathed in sunlight from large windows and bifold doors, with the kitchen boasting a central island with a marble countertop and top-of-the-line integrated appliances, seamlessly connecting the indoors with the serene garden outside. A side extension has been ingeniously transformed into a stylish annex, featuring open-plan living with a sitting room, kitchen, and shower room. Currently used as an Airbnb, this one-bedroom annex offers versatility and modern comfort. The upper floors of the villa are designed for flexible living, with bathrooms and shower rooms thoughtfully placed on each level. The property offers seven spacious double bedrooms, four luxurious bath/shower rooms, a dressing room, and a walk-in linen cupboard, ensuring ample space for a large family. The master bedroom is a sanctuary of its own, featuring French doors that open onto a private balcony with tranquil garden views. This remarkable property is a perfect blend of historical charm and contemporary luxury, offering a unique and stylish living experience for discerning buyers.
Outside
Hampden House is gracefully set back from the road, accessed via an in-and-out carriage driveway. This approach offers ample off-street parking, framed by mature trees and lush shrubs. A single garage to one side provides generous storage space. The quintessentially English, south-facing rear garden is a beautifully designed retreat, with high brick walls offering both space and privacy. Thoughtfully arranged to maximise its generous dimensions, the garden features various pockets of interest, each contributing to its serene ambiance. A flagstone terrace and paving extend along the rear elevation, providing direct access to the kitchen. At the heart of the garden lies a flat lawn and a tranquil water feature, surrounded by mature planting and dominated by a venerable old apple tree. To one side is a charming potager kitchen garden, while the rear elevation boasts two covered retreats perfect for seating and alfresco dining, enhancing the allure of this enchanting outdoor sanctuary. Trellis work adorned with climbing plants and raised beds adds a delightful backdrop to this idyllic setting.
