The House
Flagstone floor, original floorboards, original oak beamed fireplace…just a few of the wonderful character features within this beautiful property. The house is arranged over three storeys and is deceptively spacious on each floor. It certainly has its quirks, which is what we love about period properties, but the current owners have carried out some superb improvement works to cater for modern family living, including a stunning bathroom suite on the top floor and the addition of a w/c on the middle storey. There are exposed natural materials throughout, amongst the beautifully styled aesthetic of the house. Two features we love are the custom bay window seating areas with sash style windows, benefitting from the far reaching field views opposite. The kitchen dining room spans the width of the rear of the house, and is an unusually large size for a property built circa 1850, obviously an extension of sorts. The top room, currently a nursery, was previously a purpose built workspace, having numerous connection points, and high speed broadband hardwired into numerous points. Office-envy for any buyers who benefit from this space, and those views. There is curb-side parking in front of the house, or public parking on the close at the rear of the house, under one minute walk away.
