Some properties are lovely, some are impressive, and then there are those that really stop you in your tracks. This is one of those homes. 3 Malborough Gardens is a truly magnificent period home in the heart of Stanwix.

Beautifully positioned on this wonderful and sought after street, this substantial period property is quite simply exquisite. Full of elegance, charm and personality, it has been sympathetically modernised to an exceptionally high standard, creating that perfect balance of beautiful original character and stylish modern living.

From the moment you arrive, it is obvious just how well this home has been cared for. With masses of kerb appeal, a handsome frontage, driveway parking and pretty gardens, it certainly makes a wonderful first impression. The imposing front door opens into the most beautiful hallway, where the scale of the property immediately becomes apparent. The striking staircase rises gracefully through the centre, setting the tone for what lies beyond.

The front living room is an elegant, inviting space. A room that would be perfect for relaxing in front of the fire on a cosy evening or opening up when entertaining friends and family. The second reception room, with an equally impressive fireplace, is currently used as a formal dining room but could easily lend itself to being a second living room.

The heart of this spectacular home has to be the kitchen, and what a kitchen it is! This is a wonderful space, beautifully designed and finished to a very high standard, with a fabulous central island creating a real focal point. Quartz worktops, quality fittings, a fantastic walk in pantry and plenty of space, make this a kitchen as practical as it is stylish. It is undoubtedly a room where people will naturally gather, chat, cook and enjoy time together.

From the kitchen there is a lovely bright garden room, perfectly placed to sit with a book and enjoy views over the mature garden. A ground floor WC and a useful utility area, add to the practicality of this impressive home.

To round off the ground floor there is a large garage space which provides a huge amount of storage. It is floored and would be a brilliant area for a home gym.

Upstairs, the accommodation continues to captivate, with five bedrooms in total, all complemented by two contemporary bathrooms, which remains very much in keeping with the character and elegance of the property. On the first floor there are three generous bedrooms and a huge bathroom with walk in shower and gorgeous free standing bath. You can easily imagine awakening those senses in a morning and relaxing in a hot bubble bath in an evening. It is a wonderful place to retreat to.

And then there is the top floor, which takes this home to another level altogether. Here you will find two further bedrooms and modern bathroom, again boasting both a bath and walk in shower. This with a wonderfully versatile space could potentially be arranged as a self contained area or annex. Whether you need somewhere for an older child, visiting family, guests, working from home or simply want that extra degree of flexibility, this is a fantastic addition to the property.

Outside, the gardens really are something special. Generous for a townhouse, they wrap around the home beautifully, almost as though they are giving it a warm embrace. There is plenty of space to relax, entertain and enjoy the outdoors, while the gardens add another layer of privacy and charm to this already exceptional home.

This is a property with presence. It is grand without feeling stuffy, elegant without losing its warmth and beautifully modernised without sacrificing the character that makes it so special.

Homes of this size, quality and personality in such a sought after position, simply do not come onto the market very often.

This really is one that needs to be seen to be fully appreciated. We strongly recommend an early viewing. Contact me on 07515905117 or email me at hayley.gardiner@expuk.com
