The property is a Grade II listed Regency-style townhouse bearing all the delightful characteristics of the mid-19th century period, including fireplaces and sash windows. Rendered elevations under a slate tiled roof give way to spacious accommodation arranged over two floors offered in sympathetic decorative order for its period. The convenient side access leads into a welcoming entrance reception hall where you will instantly note the airiness of the interior, from the high ceilings and an elegant open staircase to the first floor, with a stained glass window. The accommodation is arranged over two floors with further access into a good sized
cellar. The ground floor living space comprises a wonderful double reception and dining room, with a feature open fireplace and a set of French doors leading on to the front garden terrace.

From this room is an adjoining utility boot room with access to the rear garden. The ground floor accommodation is completed by a cloakroom off the hallway.
The bedrooms are arranged from an impressively spacious open-plan galleried landing, each bedroom offers good proportions. There is a modern bathroom and an en suite off the main bedroom. The available loft space is accessible via
a retractable ladder.
