A rare opportunity to purchase a substantial Grade 2 listed property of historical interest in the centre of this popular market town. We believe the property dates back to around 1780 and still retains many original features including a regency staircase, flagstone flooring, high ceilings and open fireplaces. The property will require refurbishment but currently has planning permission for conversion to two dwellings with the two storey period wash house to be converted to garaging and granny flat. There is also potential for part commercial usage.
The accommodation extends to over 4,000 square feet and includes two primary reception rooms, two cellars, large kitchen, laundry room, six double bedrooms and attic room over three floors, and three bathrooms. There is also a walled garden and off road parking. EARLY INTERNAL VIEWING IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
