Located on one of Abingdon’s most historic streets, this elegant Grade II listed townhouse blends period grandeur with modern comfort. Spanning three floors, the home retains its heritage through high ceilings, original sash windows, and character fireplaces.
Living Spaces The 17' sitting room features a large sash window with original shutters, an open fireplace, and polished wooden flooring. A sophisticated separate dining room with exposed floorboards leads to a light-filled breakfast room with a vaulted glass ceiling. This flows into a well-equipped kitchen, complemented by a utility room and cloakroom at the rear.
Bedrooms & Bathrooms The first floor hosts a generous principal bedroom with built-in wardrobes and a luxury bathroom featuring a claw-foot roll-top bath and separate shower. The top floor offers a flexible 18' double-aspect bedroom with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and town views.
Garden & Exterior The 75' landscaped, westerly-facing garden is a private oasis with stone paving and gravelled seating areas. This partly walled retreat also benefits from convenient rear pedestrian access. Planning is approved for a single storey extension and related alterations - Ref P17/V1365/LB.
East St Helen Street is arguably Abingdon’s most prestigious and historic address, ideally positioned between the scenic River Thames and the vibrant Market Place. This iconic street is a living gallery of Grade II listed architecture, offering a unique blend of medieval and Georgian charm within a short stroll of independent shops, high-end eateries, and the beautiful Abbey Gardens.
Beyond its heritage, the location is a premier choice for families and commuters, sitting in the heart of the town's renowned school district. With Radley station just two miles away and the A34 providing fast access to Oxford and the M40, it perfectly balances historic tranquility with modern connectivity.
