Description Forming part of an impressive Victorian school conversion of nine individual homes, this exceptional property is one of the finest homes within the development. Retaining many striking architectural features, including impressive Gothic windows and exposed roof timbers, the property has been thoughtfully converted to provide beautifully appointed contemporary accommodation extending to approximately 1,409 sq ft. With generous open-plan living space, attractive private gardens and allocated parking, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a home of genuine character in a highly convenient town location.
Accommodation The property is approached via a courtyard to its own front door which opens into an entrance hall with stairs rising to the first floor and a useful study area. The heart of the home is the superb open-plan kitchen, dining and living room, extending to over 36 feet in length and providing an exceptional space for both everyday living and entertaining. The contemporary kitchen is fitted with an excellent range of wall and base units with integrated appliances, complemented by a breakfast bar, whilst French doors from the dining area open onto the private, wrap around garden. A separate utility room and cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation.
On the first floor, a striking galleried landing with exposed roof timbers leads to three bedrooms with impressive vaulted ceilings. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, enjoying a magnificent Gothic arched window, fitted wardrobes and a stylish en-suite shower room. The remaining bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom.
Outside The development is approached over a private driveway leading to a generous parking area, where the property benefits from two privately owned parking spaces, together with attractive communal lawned gardens. The dwelling also enjoys its own beautifully landscaped private gardens, which can be accessed either directly from the property or independently from North Street via impressive wrought iron gates and a stepped pathway. Occupying an elevated, west-facing position, the gardens are thoughtfully arranged with paved seating areas, mature shrubs and colourful planting, creating a private and tranquil setting for outdoor dining, entertaining and relaxation.
