Description

1 Lovesgrove — A Rare Victorian Greystone Mansion

A truly exceptional opportunity to acquire a grand Victorian residence of distinction.
1 Lovesgrove is a substantial pre-1900 residence offering approximately 383 sq. metres (4,123 sq. ft.) of living space, set within an impressive 12.94 acres of land. With four bedrooms and four reception rooms, this is a property of scale and character, providing a unique opportunity for those seeking a rural lifestyle with the freedom to modernise and create a truly exceptional home.

From the moment you arrive, the stature is clear. Period architecture, high ceilings and generously proportioned rooms combine to create a house of presence and charm. The four reception rooms provide flexible space for family living and entertaining, while the kitchen and service areas present a practical footprint ready for updating. Upstairs, the four bedrooms are well sized and enjoy views across the surrounding grounds, with scope for reconfiguration to suit modern family needs.

The property is in need of modernisation throughout, making it a rare blank canvas for buyers with vision. Its character and original features form the perfect foundation for restoration, while the extensive layout allows for extension, reconfiguration or adaptation for multi-generational living.

A defining feature of 1 Lovesgrove is the land. Extending to nearly 13 acres, it offers enormous potential for equestrian use, smallholding ventures, or simply the enjoyment of private open space. Closer to the house, the gardens provide an attractive and private outdoor setting, with ample scope for landscaping and leisure.

Unlike any semi-detached property you are likely to encounter, 1 Lovesgrove combines the feel of a country residence with the versatility of a family home. With its rare combination of size, character and acreage, it represents an exciting opportunity to create a remarkable lifestyle property in a sought-after rural setting.
