Property description

House

Ground floor

The front door opens into an entrance hall (22 sq m) that runs the depth of the house. To the left a door opens into the dining room (29 sq m) with wooden floor and marble fireplace. A pair of part-glazed doors open from this room to the sitting room (30 sq m) with wooden floor, marble fireplace, a pair of part-glazed doors to the rear terrace and two doors that open back into the central hall.

To the right of the hall a door opens into an informal sitting room / library (18 sq m) with wooden floor. From here a door opens to a service corridor from which the stairs to the extensive cellars are accessed. This corridor then leads through to the kitchen (16 sq m) with tiled floor, fitted units and a utility room. A door from the kitchen opens back to the central hallway.

There is a glazed door at the end of the hall that opens onto the rear terrace.

The original wooden staircase rises from the centre of the hall to the first floor and there is a WC below the stairs. Two pairs of glazed doors in the hall can be closed to isolate the stairwell (this would have helped to prevent heat from rising to the attic).

First floor

The stairs rise to a large first floor landing (14 sq m) off which are four bedrooms (25 sq m, 25 sq m, 18 sq m and 16 sq m). Three of the bedrooms have ensuite shower rooms (shower, washbasin and WC) and two have "boudoirs" - small rooms overlooking the garden that are large enough for an armchair and table. Also off the landing is a bathroom (bath, washbasin and WC).

Second floor

The staircase continues to the second floor landing off which are two further bedrooms (18 sq m and 13 sq m), a shower room (shower, washbasin and WC). Also off the landing is a large attic (about 55 sq m) which could be incorporated into the habitable accommodation.

Garden The house sits on a plot of 1328 sq m. A pair of large gates provides access from the road. The garden is mainly laid to lawn with a number of mature trees. There is also access to the cellars from the garden. To one end of the garden is a swimming pool (will require some work).

This is a large townhouse with a sizeable garden in the heart of this popular market town. It could make an extremely comfortable family home or perhaps a letting investment.
