Greenham House is made of stone under a slate roof and has lovely detailing around the windows; there is a bay to the left of the front door and large timber Sash Windows; a date stone tells us the house was constructed in 1892.
This fabulous house enjoys a wonderful symmetry, which enables a sense of grandeur, especially with the retention of many period features. High ceilings further enhance the feeling of space, allowing light to fill the well-proportioned rooms.
The house extends to some 2943 sq. ft spread over three floors. While there are modern attributes such as energy-saving solar panels and a garden room extension, it also presents a would-be buyer with the opportunity for cosmetic improvements and re-modelling of the accommodation. The house has the added benefit of not being listed.
The front door opens into a hallway with fabulous flagstones. While the bay takes away the symmetry on the outside, inside, the rooms are arranged symmetrically off the wide hallway with two rooms on either side (ground floor rear extension aside). There are two reception rooms to the front; one used as a sitting room and the other as an office, both with fireplaces and Sash windows overlooking the front.
To the rear is a kitchen/breakfast room and a snug, the snug also having a fireplace with doors out to a lovely sun-room that, in turn, opens onto the garden. The kitchen and hallway provide access to the utility room, leading to the downstairs loo.
The first floor comprises three generous double bedrooms, and a family bathroom with a separate shower. For anyone wishing to put their stamp on the house, the large bathroom could be divided to provide an en-suite and a family bathroom.
There is further scope for reconfiguration on spacious second floor which currently consists of two double bedrooms, a dressing room and a bathroom.
