This exceptional New Town property has been lovingly reinstated to its original quality and grandeur, offering a fantastic example of an A-listed Georgian townhouse. Most recently used as a luxury bed and breakfast, the property also lends itself to be a delightful family home. The house combines impressive original features with beautiful interiors and wonderful entertaining spaces. Fully renovated several years ago, with great attention to detail, there is an abundance of detailed plasterwork, panelling work and grand fireplaces. With up to eight bedrooms and six bathrooms over four floors, this property is perfect for both modern family living or as a potential business with flexible living space.

Upon entering the house, a generous hallway offers an immediate sense of Georgian grandeur and splendid period details. An elegant formal drawing room, featuring an impressive fireplace, can be found to the front of the house. To the rear of the ground floor is a beautiful dining room and adjoining kitchen overlooking the rear garden. This floor also features a discreet WC and storage cupboards.

Additional, flexible living accommodation can be found on the lower ground floor, with a light and bright kitchen extension, benefitting from direct access onto the rear garden through French doors. A warm and welcoming sitting room with log burning stove combines with the kitchen and dining area to provide a fantastic open plan living space. The lower ground floor also features a large en suite bedroom, two further bedrooms (one currently used as an office), a shower room and a wine cellar. There is existing planning permission in place to separate the basement level from the floors above, creating a separate residence which offers wonderful flexibility.

The generously proportioned principal bedroom on the first floor benefits from large sash and case windows which flood the room with natural light. A further bedroom to the rear of the property features elegant proportions and a peaceful outlook. Both bedrooms on this floor boast generous en suites with bathtubs. A further three well-appointed bedrooms can be found on the second floor, including two spacious en suite bathrooms plus a separate shower room.

Outside, the attractive rear garden is generous in size, with both lawn and patio, providing a fantastic entertaining space. To the front of the property are three dry-lined cellars with power, providing additional flexibility and storage space. One of these cellars is currently used as a utility room.
