This elegant property, built in 1910 for the managing director of Samuel Whites Shipping Company, epitomizes grandeur and sophistication. Designed with entertaining in mind, the home features spacious rooms filled with character, creating a welcoming yet impressive atmosphere. The entrance hall, highlighted by a grand marble fireplace and an open-arm staircase, sets the tone for the rest of the house. The sunroom offers a tranquil space to admire the beautiful landscaped gardens. The main drawing room is flooded with natural light through triple-aspect windows, with a large fireplace and a bay window that creates a stunning alcove. Adjacent to this is a second sitting room, equally bright and inviting, both served by a butler's kitchen. The grand dining room overlooks formal sunken gardens and a large ornamental pond, making it perfect for formal gatherings. The domestic quarters have been transformed into additional rooms, including a spacious kitchen, breakfast room and playroom, all of which offer ample space for modern family living.
