Property description
GRAND VICTORIAN HOME WITH PERIOD ELEGANCE AND FLEXIBLE LIVING ACROSS FOUR FLOORS
Positioned along the sought-after Savile Park Road, 1 Arden Lodge is a Victorian residence offering generously-proportioned accommodation ideal for large or multi-generational families. From its exquisite stained glass and original fireplaces to the abundance of natural light and leafy outlooks, this home delivers grandeur, versatility, and comfort in equal measure.
LIVING SPACES
Entering through a stained glass-framed doorway, the entrance vestibule leads into a grand hallway currently used as a dining area. This space features solid wooden flooring, high ceilings with decorative cornicing, two ceiling roses, and an arched feature leading to a graceful staircase with wood and iron detailing.
The impressive kitchen is filled with light thanks to double-aspect windows, including a charming bay. Wooden units, a central island with built-in storage, and top-end appliances — including a Godin oven, BOSCH microwave, and eight-ring gas hob — cater to keen cooks and entertainers alike.
In the lounge, dual floor-to-ceiling windows create a bright, refined space anchored by a wood-burning stove in an elegant fireplace. Ornate cornicing and a huge ceiling rose add further distinction.
