Property description
This imposing Grade II listed detached former Gentleman's residence is sold with the added benefit of planning permission to develop the property into eight individual apartments. The property has in recent times been utilised as offices but would make a superb home* and already has a recently installed quality kitchen and bathroom.
Sat in generous grounds accessed via electric gates and with off road parking for several vehicles in addition to two substantial garages. The property has an impressive stone portico which leads to a grand entrance hall with original stone and iron work staircase. There are four reception rooms, a kitchen and W.C on the ground floor. The first floor landing has a central atrium and doors leading to five bedrooms and the bathroom. Offering scope for further development there are large vaulted cellars. This property retains many original features including the Georgian sliding sash windows and deep ceiling cornices.
Properties of this nature are hard to come by at this price and we strongly recommend an internal inspection of the property which is being sold with no upward chain involved.
