This Grade II-listed Regency house, set in sought-after Clarendon Crescent, beautifully combines contemporary living with period details: the living-and-dining area is open plan, but also has ornate ceilings and fine fireplaces.
The more than 5,000sq ft of living space includes a magnificent kitchen and breakfast room, a study, a family room and six bedrooms—the one on the top floor abuts a living room and a kitchenette, lending itself perfectly to granny, teenager or staff accommodation.
The property also comes with its own garage and beautiful private gardens, beyond which is communal parkland.
5 Claredon Crescent is currently on the market via Fine & Country with a guide price of £2 million — see more pictures, or enquire with the agent for further details.
