This substantial and elegant period townhouse has been imaginatively sub-divided to retain original features into two spacious apartments which we are offering as a whole. Set back high off the Dixton Road with views across the river Wye towards the Kymin and a level walk from the centre and the many amenities. The driveway leads to parking for at least 4 cars with a mature South facing lawn to the front and a courtyard at the back. Planning permissions in place for two apartments or to return to one large residence if desired.
| Constructed mainly in local red sandstone with feature Bath stone window mullions with inset double glazed windows and external doors under slate tiled roofs. The generously proportioned rooms have high coved ceilings and retain a wealth of original features including fireplaces, panelled internal doors and shutters, moulded skirting boards, architraves and picture rails. Separate gas fired boilers provide hot water and central heating to radiators throughout both apartments.
