Property description
THE PROPERTY This property is a superbly presented and thoroughly updated natural stone and stone tiled four-storey terraced cottage, enjoying a very pleasant outlook over The Knapp (a small green within the town) and within a short walking distance of the town centre.
The accommodation consists of entrance vestibule into a lounge which now has a handsome feature fireplace housing a multi-fuel burner and steps down to the cellar that has been converted into an attractive dining room. The ground floor continues with a smart Shaker style fitted kitchen/breakfast room with a range of integrated appliances and double glazed French doors out onto the rear courtyard garden. At first floor level is an impressive double bedroom, a luxury shower room and a snug/third bedroom from which a staircase goes up to a second floor/landing. This provides access to the impressive master bedroom with exposed beams in the vaulted ceiling and also the deceptively spacious study/occasional bedroom which has a south westerly aspect to the side.
The cottage has the benefit of gas fired radiator central heating, uPVC double glazed windows, and easy to maintain walled courtyard garden to the rear and on street parking in the immediate vicinity.
DIRECTIONS From our office in the centre of town the property is easily reached by a driving down Long Street and turning first left into New Church Street and will then be seen just after the fire station on the right hand side.
