A beautifully appointed Grade II-listed townhouse with garaging and a walled garden situated in the heart of Louth.
Originally constructed in the 1820s is this striking Grade II-listed Neo-Classical townhouse occupying a commanding position on this popular road which has magnificent views of the Grade I-listed St James Church. The house is situated on the end of a short terrace of four homes, highly regarded for its architectural detailing, original fixtures and fittings. A wall painting, unique to number 30, in the drawing room which is attributed to William Brown, famed for his Louth Panorama of 1844 (in which the terrace is easily seen). The house is a real landmark of Louth's history and many internal character features remain.
The house has been subject to an exacting and sympathetic renovation, including repointing, reparations to windows and internal cosmetic improvements, which have created a light-filled, characterful and modern family home. The house is ideal for entertaining, offering a choice of reception rooms of generous proportions and six double bedrooms, plus a number of ancillary rooms for storage and supporting daily family life. In particular, the lower ground floor is equipped with a generous utility room/kitchen, boot room, office and snug, while the formal rooms are all entirely separate on the first floor, comprising a dining room, reception room, office and a charming farmhouse-style kitchen. The bedrooms, all an excellent size and many with original features, are arranged over the top two floors, also with a bathroom on each floor affording both bath and shower facilities. The house is finished to a very high specification, incorporating original elements such as stone floors and cast iron fireplaces with contemporary additions like a bespoke kitchen with premium integrated appliances, and fabulous bathrooms with roll-top baths.
Despite its size, the house is surprisingly low maintenance with the walled garden to the rear offering plenty of space and a maintenance-free slate chipping and tiled flooring, which has plenty of space for pots and garden furniture. There are some plants around the boundary, and a side gate which leads out to the rear. Number 30 owns the driveway which is shared by the remaining houses in the terrace, providing secure off-street parking and access to a double garage en bloc.

This is a superb town house right by so many of my favourite places in this wonderful market town, I especially like the high ceilings and tall windows, the low maintenance garden make it a very good lock and leave as well
