3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Stanfell Road, Clarendon Park LE2

A considered reinvention of a 1930s semi-detached home, this property balances period integrity with a confident, contemporary aesthetic. Completely remodelled and carefully extended, the house embraces a refined yet expressive palette, with interiors that prioritise light, flow and a strong connection to the garden beyond.

The approach is quietly striking, anchored by a black timber entrance door, with scope to introduce off-street parking for two vehicles. Inside, a generous hallway with restored oak flooring sets the tone, leading to two reception spaces that have been reimagined for modern living. To the front, a calm, light-filled room is centred around an exposed brick feature, offering texture and warmth. Beyond, a second reception room is more intimate in feel, subtly separated with glazed sliding doors to allow flexibility between open and closed living. The rear of the plan opens out into a carefully composed kitchen, dining and living space. Framed by views of the garden, this is a room designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Clean-lined cabinetry is paired with integrated appliances, while an L-shaped island introduces a social focal point with informal seating. There is ample room for a dedicated dining setting, and French doors extend the space outward, reinforcing the indoor–outdoor dialogue. A newly finished WC completes the ground floor.

Upstairs, three bedrooms are arranged off a generous landing, two doubles and a single, each thoughtfully presented with built-in storage. A standout family bathroom introduces a more expressive design language, with a roll-top bath and a rich, moody palette that adds depth and contrast. Original timber flooring continues across this level, enhancing the home’s material continuity.

The garden is a defining element of the property, designed with a strong sense of structure and seasonality. A mix of fruit and blossom trees sit within established borders, creating both privacy and visual interest. A lawned area offers openness, while a slightly raised terrace provides a natural setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. To the front, readily available on-street parking can be found outside the property whilst there is also potential to configure a driveway for the property following the relevant consents.

Situated in the heart of Clarendon Park, an early viewing is essential to truly appreciate the craftsmanship on offer.
