Property description

A very IMPRESSIVE five bedroom 'Georgian' town house, which is NOT LISTED and believed to be steeped in history. It will appeal to a variety of buyers, those who appreciate the CHARM OF PERIOD homes, which can be a rare find these days, especially ones which retain much character and replacement features in keeping with the originals. The current owners initially used their home as a large family residence and in recent times it has been used as two fully independent apartments both with their own entrances. The very spacious and flexible accommodation which is arranged over three floors also includes two kitchens, a bathroom and two shower rooms, but can be easily adapted to suit individual preferences. Added benefits include an integral store which can be accessed internally or externally, garage and gardens which are both situated a short distance away from the property.
