The Property
The Jesters House, 39 Chapel Street is a charming two bedroom cottage which has recently been completely overhauled by the current vendors. Recent improvements include the restoration of the sash windows, the installation of a new boiler, internal decoration throughout and brand new kitchens and bathrooms. The improvements have been finished to the highest of standards.
On entering you are warmly welcomed into the cosy sitting room, which has re-claimed wooden flooring, sash window to front aspect and a feature fireplaces with inset wood burning stove. Once in the sitting room, you will notice the glass and timber divide in between the sitting room and the wonderful vaulted kitchen. Stairs lead down into the kitchen which has recently been refitted with a number of free-standing units, a five ring 'smeg' gas oven and a titanium corner sink/draining unit. The room has been finished very nicely with travertine flooring and tiling up to window sill level. The travertine flooring continues and steps lead down into the former basement which now is a stylish studio or occasional bedroom. On the first floor are two bedrooms, of which both can accommodate double beds and a family bathroom. The luxury bathroom comprises a centred roll top bath, his & hers hand wash basins with vanity units below and a low level dual flush wc. The room is completed with tiled splash backs, a single radiator, towel rail and painted wooden flooring. Off the landing is a useful storage cupboard which houses the new gas fired boiler installed in 2015. The master bedroom has been transformed and now has a refreshing vaulted ceiling up to the ridge of the roof exposing all the timber joints, purlins and rafters.
