Arranged over the first and second floors, the property enjoys its own private entrance via an external staircase on Claremont Road together with parking for 1 car to the rear of the building in Grove Hill Gardens. With generous and versatile accommodation of over 1500ft2, this Grade II Listed, Georgian residence is full of character and period charm, enhanced by its location within the Conservation Area.
A large, L-shaped entrance hall on the first floor welcomes you, and leads to a well-proportioned kitchen with tall sash windows to the front of the building, enjoying the morning sun. The kitchen offers excellent storage with a breakfast bar and space for a large dining table and chairs as well as further, relaxed seating. Appliances include an integrated electric oven, gas hob and fridge/freezer, with space for a freestanding washing machine and dishwasher. Across the hall, is a smaller room where the gas boiler can be found and is currently used as an excellent boot room with plenty of space for coats, shoes and school bags. The sitting room is an elegant room with tall ceiling, coving and picture rail and a fireplace (currently sealed) providing a focal point. Bow windows with double doors open to a small balcony affording views over the trees to the rear and town beyond. There is also a single bedroom, currently used as a study, enjoying the same view and a family bathroom, with shower over the bath, WC and wash basin, complete the accommodation on this level.
A turned staircase leads to the second floor with useful storage cupboard beneath. There are two spacious double bedrooms, one to the front with twin, fitted double wardrobes, picture rail and secondary glazing, and one to the rear with bow window to the rear and further window to the side. An internal shower room fitted with a white suite serves this floor.
Outside, there is a garden area to the right of the staircase leading to the entrance and this will be allocated to this particular apartment, as well as the right to park one car in the parking area to the rear of the building, accessed via the private road, Grove Hill Gardens.
This spacious apartment is for sale with no onward chain and would now benefit from some further updating.
