The Home -
This home on Elderfield Road has an ease to it, the kind that comes from good light, considered design, and spaces that simply work. Its Victorian character remains, but years of thoughtful updates have given it a quiet sense of flow. Behind the brick facade are three bedrooms, a double reception room, plus a kitchen diner that is flooded with natural light and opens onto the garden which is a calm and practical outdoor space that catches the best of the afternoon light. The kitchen and bathroom have been finished with quiet precision, the kitchen fitted with Fenix cabinetry, Caesarstone worktops and Bosch appliances, while the bathroom features terrazzo flooring and Claybrook tiles. Elderfield Road has that rare mix of calm and connection close to the cafés and market life of Chatsworth Road, with Millfields park and the River Lea just moments away.
The Indoors
On entering, the living room opens to your left tall sash windows, original coving, and light that moves beautifully across the reclaimed floorboards. There s warmth in the details: marble hearths, fitted shelving and full-length tulip-wood shutters.
Down a short flight of stairs is a room currently used as a child s bedroom, though it works equally well as a study. It has an oak-framed door opening onto the courtyard, reclaimed floorboards underfoot, and a calm, connected feel that makes it easy to spend time in. Beyond the hallway sits the bathroom, finished in terrazzo and Claybrook tile, with Lusso stone fittings that feel timeless rather than showy.
The kitchen and dining space stretch across the rear of the house, redesigned in 2021/22. Fenix cabinetry, a Caesarstone concrete worktop and a run of Bosch appliances make it a cook s kitchen without feeling clinical. A bespoke oak bench wraps the dining area, mirroring the outdoor seating so the two spaces connect naturally. A large skylight and picture window frame the garden, drawing light across the concrete tiled floor. It s a bright, generous space that makes it easy to cook, talk and be part of whatever s happening around the table.
On the lower ground floor are two bedrooms. The main sits at the front with bay windows and shutters a calm, well-proportioned room. The second is next door, also a double, with good storage and a peaceful feel.
The Outdoors
The back garden was finished in 2024, cedar fencing, black steel planters, porcelain paving and a long London Stone step. It feels private, low-key, and beautifully done. There s a built-in bench for morning coffee or an evening glass of wine, surrounded by soft planting and just enough greenery to feel removed from the city. The front garden has been reworked too, with corten-steel planters and a neat wall that conceals the bins and frames the lightwell. Every detail feels deliberate, but nothing feels overdesigned.
