Description
Situated on a generous plot of approximately just over half an acre, is this remarkable Grade ll listed Georgian detached townhouse. It offers an exciting opportunity for restoration and transformation into a truly stunning period residence.

Rich in character, the property has numerous original and character features including elegant sash windows with shutters cornicing to ceilings, multiple fireplaces, servant bells and an elegant late Georgian staircase. These charming period elements offer a rare chance to revive the grandeur of a bygone era.

The substantial garden, complete with outbuildings also requires restoration but offers great scope for landscaping or additional development subject to any local authority consents. With off street parking, a large garden and a location just a short distance from the town centre, convenience meets potential in this renovators dream.

Formerly run as a film and photo shoot location by the owner, a stylist, the property generated a substantial income through its use by well-known clients including The White Company, Joules, Homes and Gardens, Country Living, Morris and Co., and Cath Kidston, among others.
