A seemingly ordinary semi-detached house in Nuneaton has hit the market for £320,000, concealing an extraordinary interior transformation that completely belies its conventional exterior.
The property at Manor Court Road appears identical to its neighbours at first glance, featuring typical red brickwork and a trim front garden enclosed by dark grey railings. However, stepping through the front door reveals what estate agents describe as a 'masterclass of heritage revival'.
A Step Back in Time
Extraordinary photographs reveal how the current owners have completely transformed the interior with a flamboyant, bespoke Edwardian design. One of the most striking - and potentially divisive - features includes numerous Edwardian dolls positioned throughout the home.
The formal front reception room immediately captures attention with its commanding bay window, high ceilings, and meticulously restored period fireplace, all set against a bold crimson colour scheme.
Spacious and Bespoke Living
Upon entry, visitors are greeted by a bespoke breakfast kitchen featuring rich, walnut-style cabinetry and a striking centre island that serves as the room's focal point. The home cleverly blends Edwardian and Victorian elements, particularly in the spectacular conservatory that extends from the kitchen.
This light-filled space features matching tile flooring and overlooks the private courtyard garden. The principal bedroom, created by combining two original rooms, now spans the full width of the house and boasts decorative ceiling work alongside a grand bay window facing the front.
Unique Character Throughout
The rear bedroom contains both a walk-in closet and fireplace, while fascinating religious imagery adorns the walls. The family bathroom continues the period theme with a corner bath and vanity unit featuring tiled surrounds.
Completing the property is the private courtyard-style rear garden with decorative paving and pebbled borders. Carters Estate Agents, who are marketing the property, emphasise that viewing is essential to fully appreciate the home's unique character and craftsmanship.
The 1,499 square foot property offers three bedrooms and one bathroom, presenting what agents call 'a rare opportunity to own a truly bespoke home that effortlessly honours its Edwardian roots while providing flexible and spacious modern living'.
