Property description

An imposing Georgian town house which was formerly the home of Captain Albert Barr Turner who was King George V’s skipper of his renowned racing yacht, The Britannia, which won over 200 races in her racing career and was later scuttled on the orders of the King at his death. The property does require some refurbishment and updating to bring it back to its former glory. The accommodation is arranged over two floors. The original entrance door has been closed off and there is now a side entrance door to a small lobby which provides access to both the dining room and the sitting room. The sitting room has good proportions as it was formally two rooms where the main entrance door enters, original sash windows to the front with further window and glazed door to side, large open fireplace with canopy and two original recess book cases. Doorway leads through to an inner hallway with a lovely low rise staircase off and a corridor leads down to the dining room which is to the rear of the property and has a red brick fireplace with fitted gas fire and back boiler which supplies domestic hot water and radiators. This room has exposed ceiling and wall timbers with windows to rear and door to rear lobby and further door through to the kitchen (also to the rear of the property) with a range of base and eye level units with central island unit and breakfast bar, built in oven and hob with extractor hood over, plumbing for automatic washing machine and dishwasher, vent for tumble drier, double oven Aga, integrated fridge freezer, large larder cupboard and quarry tiled floor. From the rear lobby there is a door leading down to a useful cellar. On the first floor there are four good size bedrooms and family bathroom plus separate shower room and a further door provides access and staircase to top floor flat with a kitchen, shower room, bedroom and sitting room. The flat can also be reached by a metal spiral staircase from the courtyard of Malting House at the rear.
