Property description
If this were a lonely hearts column, the opening sentence might read \"Knackered old gents/town residence seeks new owner for TLC and long term relationship\". Such is the nature of this rambling property, it will not be for the feint hearted and for sure, it will take up a great deal of your time (and money!) For all that, you will end up with a magnificent home that, when restored to its former glory, could have been lifted from the set of 'Upstairs, Downstairs'. This lovely old property is being sold, along with an annexe to the rear (complete with provision for its own kitchen and en-suite shower room), so it may well appeal to large families or for those with dependent relatives who require their own space. Work has already been started including re-wiring, some floors have been renovated and some of the walls have been re-plastered. Prospective purchasers are advised to make their own enquiries regarding any works as the property is a Grade II Listed Building and will thus require consent for any alterations, either externally or internally. One of the many joys of living here, is that it is centrally located, within walking distance of the town centre. Whitchurch itself also has its own railway station, for travel throughout a wide geographical area. Houses of such magnitude within this area are seldom offered for sale, so this is a relatively unique opportunity. If you're feeling brave, 'grab the bull by the horns' and transform this wonderful family home (complete with walled garden) into the splendid Georgian residence that it once was and feel proud that you have contributed towards the heritage of Whitchurch.
