Arrange a Viewing

 
 This fine building almost certainly pre-dates its Georgian façade, traditionally built with a painted rendered exterior with inset mainly box sash windows, most with panelled shutters, all set under pitched and hipped slate roofs. A wealth of not just character but impressive features have been retained, these include strong boxes as well as a spacious vault, beautiful feature fireplaces, panelled doors, flagstone and period stripped wooden floors. The elegant turning staircase has an easy rise and wide treads having square newel posts, moulded handrails and turned balustrades over the three floors. Of a particular note is the once School Room with its vaulted ceiling and fully exposed trusses. Very unusually for a town house of this age is its 10m x 15m enclosed walled garden which is set at the back.
