The agent says this one has been ‘tastefully and sympathetically’ restored by the current owners, adding that the place still has its original fireplaces in place, as well as all galvanised Crittall windows and from what we can see, plenty of original woodwork too.

Saying that, the new owners obviously weren’t afraid to add something of the modern era too, creating a mix of the old and the new that actually works. Yes, you get the period detail such as vintage lights and that wonderful staircase, but you also get a modern kitchen and bathroom too. Job done.
