The Property
With spacious and beautifully presented accommodation arranged over three floors, this handsome period property is offered for sale with the benefit of a complete onward chain. Of particular note is very well-proportioned living accommodation to the ground floor where an entrance hall leads to two interconnecting reception rooms, which in turn lead to a large and stylishly presented kitchen featuring bespoke hand painted cabinets and with a breakfast area at one end.
This whole floor is flooded with natural light by virtue of the large picture windows and the well-considered interior design which maximises the feeling of light and space and features polished floor boards, high ceilings, picture rails and a feature fireplace. Doors from both the dining room and kitchen lead onto a raised decked and the garden beyond while a cloak room completes the picture on this floor.
Upstairs there are four generous and very comfortable bedrooms, a Utility/laundry room, family bathroom and access to the large boarded loft space which, subject to the usual consents, offers great scope for conversion to provide further bedroom and bathroom accommodation. The master bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room with a walk in wardrobe and a feature roll top bath.
Self-contained studio
To the lower ground floor and with independent access is a self-contained studio with a living room/bedroom, shower room and kitchenette. It offers scope for use in a number of ways, either as a guest suite, home office, gym, games room, studio or staff quarters and has in the past generated a rental income when let as a self-contained apartment.
