The Property
Stepping under the ornate finialed storm porch we enter this impressive town house via the entrance hallway. Our eye is instantly drawn to the many original features that echo throughout the property. From here stairs rise to the first floor and descend to the basement whilst doors give access to the ground floor rooms. The Sitting Room is a generous family room which sits to the front of the property and enjoys the view over the Waveney Valley from the impressive bay window. A decorative marble fire surround brings a grand focal point to the room whilst the servant bell ringers sit to each side of the fire. The Dining Room enjoys the view over the rear garden whilst an open fireplace again provides a focal feature to this room. Back through the hallway we pass the stair way that leads to the basement and head into the Kitchen. The Kitchen is fitted with a basic range of base units, space is made for our appliances and a pantry cupboard provides additional storage. The original wrought iron cooker remains in place in the chimney breast and a door to the rear leads us to the rear lobby where we find the newly fitted Wet Room. Back through the Hallway we climb the stairs to the first floor landing. The Master Bedroom sits to the front of the house and again enjoys the far reaching views to the front aspect whilst a cast iron fire place is set in the chimney breast. Adjacent we find the smallest of the four Bedrooms. Heading back along the landing we pass the stairs to the second floor and enter the the second Bedroom, this ample twin room benefits from built in storage set either side of the decorative fireplace whilst a window to the rear takes in the view of the rear gardens. At the far end of the landing we pass the seperate Cloakroom and step into the main Bathroom. Stairs rise to the second floor off the landing where we find an impressive attic Bedroom. This generous space could serve a variety of uses for a prospective purchaser and is fully decorated and connected to the heating system. A large dorma window over looks the rear aspect and access whilst doors provide access to both the front and rear attic storage spaces. Completing the accommodation on the lower ground floor is the full height basement. which is fully brick lined.
