Property description
This former butchers and bookmakers, converted many years ago, is now a stunning Grade II listed character home.
After quite extensive renovation and restoration, there are some lovely modern touches but the feel as you walk around is very much of tradition. The sash windows, exposed beams and panelling keep reminding you of days gone by.
Coming home to a roaring log burner in quite sumptuous surroundings will be a real pleasure.
The somewhat open plan design gives great space and the dining area will accommodate a large dinner party where your guests can chatter whilst taking in the wealth of features around them.
The modern yet traditional style kitchen is well proportioned and gives ample space. The handy utility room can also hide away the washing up!
Perhaps, after your meal, take your drinks outside to the pretty courtyard garden; the privacy is excellent courtesy of the walled boundaries but it enjoys a sunny aspect which the well established grapevine will vouch for.
Only yards from Preston Street and a short stroll from the train station, the location is ideal for a commuter.
Homes like this are very rare to the market, so do not miss your chance to look around and, with no chain, you could move in sooner than you think.
What the Owner says:
We have lovingly and painstakingly restored this property and are very sad to be leaving. We are delighted to be able to leave this property betting rules as a reminder of the house's significant history.
Our garden, with fig tree and grapevine, is lovely on a summer's evening with a glass of wine. On lazy Saturdays we will miss popping into "Oscars" bakery for fresh bread and pastries for breakfast or to the Market Place for coffee.
A job relocation means we must "up sticks" and we genuinely hope that the new owner enjoys this unique home as much as we have.
