GEORGIAN GRANDEUR

High ceilings, a feature throughout Radcliffe House, pay homage to the Regency era, a period also referenced in the architrave, high skirting and wood panelling of the hallway. Luxurious flooring with cosy underfloor heating extends underfoot, counterbalancing the crisp white of the elegant spindle staircase up to the first floor and down to the lower ground floor. From the hallway, take the broad door to the right to discover a sumptuous drawing room.

RESPLENDENT RECEPTION ROOM

A local stone fireplace adds to the grandeur, whilst light from the tall, twin sash windows bring natural light into the room throughout the day making it a wonderful spot to unwind or entertain.

AND SO TO BED...

Further along the entrance hallway is a light and spacious bedroom with three full length windows, and large adjacent shower room. Up the imposing panelled staircase from the entrance hallway is the first floor, emerging onto a substantially-sized landing. Taking the stairs up to the uppermost floor, two inviting bedrooms await…Drinking in penthouse level views over the rooftops of Stamford, these bedrooms gaze out to the front and rear of Radcliffe House.

Adding further appeal to this gracious townhouse is the annexe apartment situated over the double garage. Take the staircase from the rear of the courtyard to the one-bedroom suite, replete with bathroom and lounge area.
