Vendors Note

A note from our Vendors...

Built in 1929 as a bespoke build for a local magistrate/Judge, the owner had two live-in staff (two maids). The accommodation for both parties is evident in the layout of the building which is identified in the original architect drawing in the study.

The previous owners had the property for multi-generational living and this could be achieved again if required with the use of the existing additional staircase.

The loft space is huge and currently boarded out. The space can easily accommodate an additional one-two bedrooms or a hobby room (subject to all necessary planning consents and building regulations)

An interesting feature of the double garage which has a double electric door to the front and has a single electric door to the rear.

Agents Note

The property has solar photovoltaic panels (owned) that generates approximately £700 per annum.
