Spanning over 7,300 square feet, this magnificent residence boasts six bedrooms, five bathrooms, and an array of lavish living spaces that redefine sophistication.
Exterior
From the moment you approach the property, you are captivated by its stunning Edwardian architecture and immaculately landscaped gardens. The gated entrance leads to a private driveway with ample parking and a double garage. The meticulously manicured grounds feature a harmonious blend of AstroTurf and terraced areas, creating a serene oasis in the heart of Hale Village. Two expansive terraces, accessible from the drawing room and kitchen, overlook the landscaped gardens, providing idyllic spaces for alfresco dining and entertaining.
Interior
Upon entering, you are immediately enveloped in a world of grandeur and sophistication. The grand reception hall, flooded with natural light from the crittall glass partitions, seamlessly connects the day-living area, the radiant glass-encased dining orangery, and the breathtaking balcony overlooking the gardens. The exceptional open-plan kitchen is a true culinary haven, featuring bespoke cabinetry, top-of-the-range Wolf appliances, and a generously proportioned breakfast area. Adjacent to the kitchen is a formal dining room and a sumptuous drawing room, both leading to the expansive terraces, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor living experience.
Upper Levels
Ascend the newly transformed staircase to the first floor, where you are greeted by intricate stained-glass windows that cast a kaleidoscope of colours onto the floor below. These lovingly restored windows pay homage to the property's rich heritage. The lavish master suite is a true oasis of indulgence. Step through the frosted double doors to discover a spacious walk-in wardrobe and dressing room, leading to the opulent en-suite bathroom. Here, a showpiece Antonio Lupi basin complements the large free-standing curved bathtub, creating a spa-like sanctuary. Separate steam and shower rooms ensure the ultimate in luxury and relaxation. An intimate double seating area, positioned beneath a large window overlooking the grounds, provides the perfect spot to unwind with a book or simply take in the stunning views.
The first and second floors house five additional bedrooms, each with its own unique character and charm, serviced by two family bathrooms.
Lower Level Entertaining

On one side, a dedicated media room with flexible mood lighting and plush corner sofas creates an inviting atmosphere for cozy gatherings. The centerpiece of this space is the bespoke media unit, a masterpiece of design featuring a metallic polished plaster surround and a ribbon fireplace edged with ebony wood panelling. On the other side, an elegant elevated bar, complete with a glorious tease window, tantalises you to explore further.

- Gross yield — Annual rent as % of purchase price (no costs).
- Cost-to-rent — Price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables). Under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed.
