A Grand Victorian House with Many Period Features and a Lush Garden

Nestled behind a communal garden with mature trees stands this magnificent Victorian house adorned with period features like stucco, mosaic tiles, fireplaces, and wooden floorboards.

The extended house beautifully blends period features with modern amenities, especially in the contemporary kitchen with sleek walnut cabinets, a rubber floor, and a large skylight. The house has a fantastic floor plan with multiple sitting rooms, a garden room, and six bedrooms.
