Three Gates, 6 Tower Road West, Branksome Park

Where to start with this absolute gem of a property. You rarely find properties that offer such versatility, yet have managed to retain so much original character. This Arts & Crafts period residence greets you with a grand entrance hall, sweeping staircase and stunning stained glass windows. You are drawn in by a peaceful reading room / library featuring one of the many intricately-crafted cast-iron fireplaces. The ground floor offers two spacious reception rooms and a family kitchen located in the middle. All rooms have direct access out onto the south-facing private garden that generously stretches across the entire 0.6 acre plot. Leading from the kitchen is a spacious utility / boot room with outdoor exit, plus a secondary 'staff' staircase up to the first floor accommodation, where there is a bathroom and office / playroom / bedroom.

The main bedroom suite is reached just beyond the stained glass window of the main staircase. Comprising a comprehensive dressing room that mirrors the floor plan of the reading room below, a large double bedroom and modern ensuite bathroom with standalone bath that basks in sunlight from the large windows. The original fireplaces remain as pretty features central to each of the bedrooms. Two further ensuite bedrooms are located on this floor. The second floor and bedrooms 5 & 6 are reached via the extended main staircase, architecturally designed to remain in keeping with its original grandeur, yet encompassing an impressive gallery feature.
