North Road House was built in 1827 and is Grade II* listed. Designed by the local architect Thomas Smith, for his own occupation - the house offers superb living spaces with high ceilings and elegant original character features throughout.

On the ground floor, the reception hallway runs through the length of the house with a classic offset staircase, access to the basement and doors opening onto the terrace and garden.

There are three principal reception rooms - a sitting room, dining room and library, all of which have fireplaces. To the rear of the house is a utility room. The kitchen / breakfast room has steps down to a garden room via a pantry and guest cloakroom.

Upstairs, there are five bedrooms, and two bathrooms, both of which would benefit from updating.

The basement level offers another entire floor of living space though has not been converted. There is good ceiling height, natural lighting and access to the garden.

North Road House sits back from the road behind a walled frontage opening onto the driveway which sweeps across the front of the house providing access to the garage and parking.

The gardens are a notable feature of this home and provide much interest with a terrace stepping down onto formal lawns with matures shrubs and topiary. The lower part of the gardens cross over a tributary of the River Beane via a private cast iron bamboo pattern bridge to a further area of garden, flanked by the river on two sides, where there is a summer house. In all, the plot extends to just over 1.3 acres.
