Description

Entering the house via the front door there is a galleried entrance hall with staircase to the lower level.

To the front of the house is a beautiful drawing room with twin sash windows, period shutters and fine original cornicing. Centre to the room is a period marble fireplace to one side of which are built-in shelves with cupboards beneath. The room is filled with light and has stunning views of the Royal Crescent.

The kitchen/dining room to the rear enjoys views out to the park and allotments behind. It is beautifully fitted with bespoke Plain English joinery, marble worktops and a tongue and groove splashback with shelving above. There is a Belfast sink and space for a range cooker. A freestanding island unit with wood worktop sits centrally, with a breakfast bar to either end and storage beneath. The room is complemented by a marble stone fireplace and exposed oak floors.

Back to the stairs, there is a useful cloakroom on the ground floor.

The stairs take you down to two generous double bedrooms, both with built-in cupboards.

In the hallway, doors lead to two bathrooms, one with a bath and the other with a shower, both having good quality fittings including Lefroy Brooks sanitaryware.

From the lower ground floor, the staircase leads down to a basement which consists of a large room providing very flexible accommodation, ideally suited as an extra reception room, third bedroom, cinema room, home office or gym. A door at the end provides independent access via stairs to the front of the building. The communal meter cupboard is also located here.
