The house was built in 1847 but there was a dramatic reconstruction in a light coloured brick in 1891 including the ornate chimneys and the turret on the corner. The Georgian rear wing, 18th or early 19th century in red brick, was incorporated in the 19th century.
Entering the property one is immediately struck by the original features which include ornate fireplaces, 9'7" high ceilings, moulded plaster covings, heavy moulded high skirting boards and door architraves, feature moulded staircase and ceiling arches and mosaic tiled pamment. The stairwell is lit by a large Victorian stained glass ceiling light and there is more stained glass in the turret and over the hall doors.
The property since 2015 has been restored and transformed into a stunning residence with a mix of Victorian charm with some great modern touches including a spacious contemporary kitchen/diner with under floor heating, luxurious bathroom suites as well as benefiting from a
re-wire, a plumbing/central heating system installation, smoke alarms wired to the mains electrics and an intruder alarm.
