60 Hepburn Gardens is one of four houses built together in the late 1800s. It forms the south-west corner facing south into the gardens. The houses are built of stone under a slate roof with bay windows on the front elevation. The flat sections of roof are Polymeric and there is a cupola which gives the hallways excellent natural light. An attractive brick built utility / garden room has been built on the west elevation which opens into a courtyard.

Both the house and the gardens are well looked after. The rooms are beautifully proportioned and retain period features such as cornices and fireplaces. A high quality kitchen has been installed with an archway opening into the utility / garden room.

A paved path leads to the front door with a stone pediment above. There is a tiled vestibule with glazed inner door which leads to an L shaped hall with a WC and under stairs coat cupboard with hooks and hanging rails.

The drawing room with its bay window and gas, coal effect fire in a Victorian fireplace with tiled insets and wooden mantel is particularly attractive. This is complemented by a south facing drawing room which also has a fireplace.

The kitchen has an island unit and black, granite topped work surfaces. The appliances include a Falcon electric cooker, sink, integrated Miele dishwasher and integrated fridge. An arch opens into the utility / garden room which has two Velux windows, a semi-integrated Miele washing machine, semi-integrated Miele tumble dryer, sink and fridge/freezer. A half glazed door leads to the paved courtyard which has an outside store and a gate onto the path.

The first floor landing has a cupboard with hanging rails. The principal bedroom has a bay window, decorative cornice and blocked fireplace. The tiled, en suite bathroom has a bath with shower, WC and wash basin. There are two further bedrooms on this floor and a second tiled bathroom.

On the second floor are bedrooms 4 and 5 and a shower room. Bedroom 4 has a dormer window and built in wardrobe. Bedroom 5 is coombed with access to a store room containing the Viesmann gas fired boiler.
