Flat for sale in Portland Terrace - 2 bedrooms, 1 reception room, 2 bathrooms

•  floor plan

A rarely available two bedroom, two bathroom, apartment forming the entire first floor of this magnificent stucco fronted Victorian villa, located on the edge of Richmond Green. Situated on the optimum level, with the most advantageous views over the Green and with the benefit of communal gardens, off street parking and a long leasehold.

The apartment is entered via a grand entrance hall, which leads through an inner archway to the original staircase with an ornate cast iron balustrade and solid mahogany handrail. The staircase rises to a half landing with a large arched sash window to the side and provides access to a small storage cupboard. Continuing up to the main first floor landing a part glazed entrance door steps into apartment 3.

Upon entering the apartment is a generous hallway, which extends in three directions and provides access to all rooms. Situated the front of the apartment, and benefitting from outstanding uninterrupted views of The Green, can be found the elegant and well proportioned drawing room with its high decorative plaster ceiling, attractive fireplace with ornate wooden carved overmantle and two large sash windows overlooking The Green. There is evidence that these windows could have full length wooden shutters which have quite possibly been sealed by the many coats of paint applied over numerous years. Adjacent to the drawing room is an equally elegant room with an attractive square box bay to the front with three sash windows providing more panoramic views over The Green. In recent years this has been used as a dining room and has bespoke wooden book shelving and dwarf cabinets to the chimney recesses and a high decorative plaster ceiling. It would also provide a superb second bedroom.

Located to the rear of the apartment is the large master bedroom which has a wall of built in wardrobes, further storage and book shelving, two large sash windows overlooking the communal garden beyond and an ornate plaster ceiling. The kitchen also faces to the rear and has a selection of Poggenpohl wall and base units with laminated work surfaces, and includes a built in washing machine, fridge, oven and grill, electric hob and extractor hood.

There are two bathrooms within the apartment, one facing the side of the property and one to the rear. Externally there is an area of hard standing to the front of the property, providing one off street parking space for this apartment, whilst to the rear is a beautiful and well tended walled communal garden with well established shrub borders, in addition to a flowering cherry and magnolia tree.
