A wide staircase with an exquisitely restored mahogany banister rises to the bright and spacious first floor landing, creating an ideal area for reading or home working. The principal bedroom enjoys the benefit of an en suite bathroom with a shower over the bath, while two further double bedrooms are served by a contemporary shower room. Occupying the second floor is a further double bedroom, rich in character with exposed beams.

A private side passage provides access to the rear garden and detached home office/studio, making it particularly well suited to remote working or creative pursuits. The south facing courtyard offers a delightful space for outdoor dining and entertaining, with steps leading up to an additional lawned garden. Permit parking is available on Sheep Street at a cost of £25 per vehicle per annum.

Throughout the property, exposed timbers, original stonework and carefully preserved period details enhance its warmth and character, complemented by stylish panel radiators that blend sympathetically with the home's historic features. Having been cherished by the same owners for more than 40 years, this is a rare opportunity to acquire an exceptionally restored period residence that successfully combines timeless elegance with modern day convenience.
