2 bed Flat For Sale £625,000
Constructed in 1877, a mere seventeen years after the famous Bexleyheath Red House, designed by Philip Webb and William Morris, this prestigious property must be seen in person to fully appreciate it beauty and potential.
Occupying the entire ground floor of The Red House, this most handsome, period, detached property, Flat One offers spacious, beautifully presented, two bedroomed accommodation with the advantage of a charming, private, south facing garden. The Red House is favourably located on the tranquil and highly regarded Cleasby Road in the heart of the popular village of Menston. The property has retained a wealth of delightful, period features such as original, tiled flooring, ornate ceiling cornicing and deep skirtings and affords flexible accommodation in its well-proportioned rooms with high ceilings and large windows, creating a wonderful feeling of space and light. A stunning, entrance hall accessed by charming French doors with a stylish and imposing, original entrance portico above, leads into a magnificent reception hall which gives access on one side to an elegant sitting room with ornate ceiling cornice and French doors leading out onto the garden, a spacious dining room or snug with bay window and a charming, characterful dining kitchen, whilst to the other side one finds the most spacious, dual aspect Master bedroom with magnificent cornicing and large, well-equipped en-suite, and the second generous, double bedroom served by a modern, wet room style shower room. A useful utility room and large, walk-in pantry complete the accommodation. Last, but not least, a further benefit are the expansive cellar rooms affording plentiful storage. Externally, the property is approached through electric gates leading to ample driveway parking and the beautifully maintained private garden wraps around the property with areas of level lawn and patio, affording ample space to entertain friends and family al fresco or simply to sit and relax in the sunshine!
