House For Sale £1,350,000
Bank house, 53B High Street is a unique, stylish and highly individual Georgian town
house forming part of this imposing Grade II* Listed building steeped in local history and located right in the very heart of Saffron Walden. The house, which dates back to about 1800, has previously been owned by
prominent families including two generations of the Bartlett Doctors and the philanthropist Gibsons. The property sits to the rear of 53 High Street containing beautifully proportioned accommodation full of many
impressive features, including tall ceilings, which help to enhance what is a truly stunning interior. There are two principal reception areas on the ground floor; a beautiful sitting room with stunning fireplace containing a log burning stove, natural
wooden floor and, from here, a lovely curved staircase rises gently to the first floor. The adjacent kitchen/family room is a fantastic entertaining area with spectacular bay window looking out to the rear, drawing in enormous amounts of natural light and really is something rarely found of this size and
stature. At the first level you find two bedrooms, both with en suite facilities,
including the master which has two sash windows looking out to the rear, a period fireplace with marble surround and ceiling height of over 9ft. There are two further generous bedrooms and shower room on the
second floor; both bedrooms have impressive rooftop views over the town with bedroom three featuring a large walk-in dressing room which could serve a variety of purposes.
Outside, twin gardens extend to the rear of the property and have been thoughtfully landscaped to help create a lovely outside space arranged in a series of individual areas, linked by a central wrought iron arbour and all providing a high degree of privacy and seclusion. Security is good with electric vehicle gates and pedestrian access both to the High Street and Abbey Lane, plus security lighting to the grounds. There is a mixture of soft and hard landscaping with footpaths and loose pea-shingle, raised timber planters and paved patio area partially bordered by an attractive brick wall with a further enclosed area of lawn with sunken seating area enclosed by timber fencing and high brick built wall. Access to the car parking is through the old stables and past the remains of St Luke’s Chapel.
