An amazing opportunity to acquire this large scale property of historical and architectural significant. Built in 1901, replacing 3 cottages, this substantial property was built as a butchers shop and a large dwelling.

The shop has been made independent of the house, ideal for a teenage/granny annex subject to the relevant consent. Alternatively with the removal of a false dividing wall, the shop can be reincorporated into the house as it was initially built. It has fabulous curb appeal, nicely set back over looking the green and stands on a sizeable 0.21 acre plot. The large plot further lends itself to a further extension or development subject to the relevant consent. It has a double garage for secure parking, two large stores and a cellar.

A beautifully landscaped South facing garden is not directly overlooked to the rear giving a sense of privacy, which is so often sought, but not often found. The main house boasts outstanding accommodation designed with architectural flare and sumptuous interior design with high ceilings and period features. It features oil fired central heating, and some lovely sash style double glazed windows.

The former shop is single storey, split into three rooms, and features gas central heating via a Vokera boiler (fitted 2019).

Overall this home really is a joy, having been significantly improved by the present owners with little regard for cost, with a great deal of thought, a manner befitting to this special home, but also having so much further potential.
Ground floor

Light and airy hallway with traditional tiled flooring, giving a fabulous first impression on entrance. Two sizeable reception rooms with stunning reinstated period features which must be viewed to be fully appreciated.

Principal reception has a large lounge/family room, running front to rear which allows for both seating and dining. An immediate focus point is the Carrera Marble fireplace with open fire, lovely for those cosy nights in. There is a delightful archway with detailing between the two areas, with double glazed French doors to the rear, leading to a patio area, perfect for alfresco dining.

Right of the hallway is the impressive separate dining room featuring a cast iron fireplace, perfect to entertain family and friends. Having been extended the ground floor allows for a beautifully appointed kitchen, breakfast room and utility/w.c which add to what is an excellent amount of accommodation to the ground floor. The breakfast area is extremely versatile could be used as an office, with a pleasant open archway to the nicely presented kitchen, providing a good range of traditional units with laminate work surfaces, incorporating a sink unit with mixer tap, cooking facilities, integrated dishwasher and double glazed Velux window, as well as the rear window overlooking the garden, flooding the room with natural light.

The Utility room has further units, stainless steel sink unit with mixer tap, plumbing for washing machine, W/C and door to cellar, which houses the boiler.
