Wishart Estate Agents are delighted to present 51 Station Road to the open market. Set over four floors, & having been meticulously renovated, this exceptionally presented & unique period property offers an abundance of space and features as well as boasting 5 bedrooms, 2 reception rooms & 2 cellars.
Wishart Estate Agents are delighted to present this rare opportunity to purchase one of just four mid-terraced period properties set in one of Tadcaster's most popular locations. Boasting accommodation over four floors, comprising; 5 bedrooms, 2 reception rooms, a newly installed kitchen, bathroom, toilet room, cellar and outhouses. This property is sure to appeal to a range of discerning purchasers who will appreciate not only the space on offer, but also the beautiful period features that have restored the personality of this incredible home.
Believed to have been built in the late 1800s as dwellings for workers of Mr Frank Colley's Maltings, now Molson Coors Brewery, and originally planned as a row of 47 dwellings that would lead along what is now Fairfield Road, all the way down to Leeds Road, this commanding row of four storey townhouses has a longstanding link to the brewing history of the town.
Number 51 Station Road has been through a meticulous process of renovation by the current owners, who have painstakingly brought this property back to life and injected its rich history back into it, with many restored and reclaimed fixtures, fittings and features throughout. Notable restorations include a full copper lagged piping system, new cast iron gutters and downpipes, restored sash windows, new pine floorboards and full decoration throughout, to name a few. Whilst maintaining the true feeling of the era of this property, it has also been carefully designed to meet the needs of the modern buyer and is a truly exceptional family home that can be enjoyed for many years to come.
Walking up the incline of Station Road, you approach an impressive cast iron gate which provides access to the front of the row of terraces. Stepping along the path which carefully separates the front lawns, you are greeted with a mature and private frontage with gardens either side of the walkway. The lawn to the right of the walkway remains the property of a third-party private owner, whilst the lawn to the left belongs to the property itself and forms part of this sale. Approaching the entrance porch, period features catch your eye from the moment you reach the front door, with beautiful sash windows, and brass doorbell.
Entering the property through the large timber door, the grand and spacious tiled entrance hall instantly bursts with charm and features of its time. High ceilings, ceiling roses, decorative Lincrusta walls and reproduction Victorian brass jelly mould light switches on timber plaques, are just a few of the details that instantly capture one's attention. A staircase with newly installed carpet runner leads to the first-floor landing and accommodation.
The property has a traditional layout, with the lounge facing the front aspect. Exposed pine floorboards, deep skirting, ceiling rose, architrave and picture rails all add to the sense of grandeur that this room affords. Painted in classic Farrow and Ball "Pavilion Grey", the main focal point is the beautiful, reclaimed fireplace with granite slips and burgundy tiles, with what is believed to be the original wooden surround, thought to have been made by the same craftsmen who designed and produced the woodwork at St. Mary's Church, Tadcaster. A large sash bay window overlooks the front elevation, which has a sense of privacy created by the mature hedges beyond.
The dining room is another excellent space, perfect for entertaining and which can easily accommodate a large formal dining arrangement, as well as other items of free-standing furniture. Red quarry tiled flooring runs throughout, and large alcove cupboards provide plenty of space for storage. Central to the room is a reclaimed and fully functioning Victorian N.E. Simplex Cooking Range with sandstone surround. The cooking range is in excellent condition, creating a warm and cosy space. Small but effective nods to the history of the property are apparent, including a "servants bell indicator box", which would have been linked to a bell system throughout the home, some of which can still be found in the bedrooms. Two large sash windows overlook the rear elevation and yard, and a beautifully crafted cast iron column radiator sits beneath. A door leads to the house cellar.
The kitchen has been well designed and comes with shaker style, cream base units with quality oak worktops over. A large Belfast sink sits below a sash window overlooking the side elevation, and Perrin & Rowe Mayfair taps add a real sense of style. A stylish black Rangemaster cooker with 5 burner gas hob and extractor above sits perfectly within the chimney recess. Integrated appliances include a slimline dishwasher and undercounter fridge. A door leads to the yard and outhouses.
The majestic staircase with timber handrail and balustrade, has been restored and finished to a high standard and remains part of the original features that this property has in abundance. This leads to the landing and the first floor accommodation, comprising; bedrooms 1,3 and 4 .
Bedroom 1 faces the front elevation, and is a large room, which can fit in an array of free standing furniture. Neutrally decorated in Farrow and Ball "Oxford Stone" and with exposed pine floorboards, the features continue, including curved chimney and window recesses, deep skirting, dado and picture rails, ceiling rose and the central fireplace with decorative surround and vibrant tiled hearth. 3 sash windows flood the room with natural light, and a cast iron column radiator, as found throughout the property, sits beneath.
Bedroom 3 is another large room with exposed pine floorboards facing the rear elevation. Period features include deep skirting, architrave and picture rails, and a striking fireplace finished with blue tile surround and yellow tile hearth. A sash window overlooks the rear yard and beyond.
Bedroom 4 is an excellent size room, which is currently set up with a single bed, but allows for plenty of space still for other items of free standing furniture. With the same exposed pine floorboards and calming neutral tones. As well as the wonderful architrave and pictures rails found throughout the property, a sash window provides an outlook over the front elevation and greenery.
A staircase leads to the second floor landing and accommodation comprising; bedrooms 2 and 5, the house bathroom and separate toilet room.
A storage cupboard off the landing provides excellent storage space.
Bedroom 2 is a large room facing the front elevation. Two sash windows let light stream through, creating a sense of warmth. Decorated in pale, rose tones, this room has the same exposed pine floorboards found throughout the property, and another eye-catching feature fireplace with iron surround, and blue and sage green decorative tiles and hearth.
Bedroom 5 is an excellent size which could lend itself to many uses, with it's proportions allowing plenty of space for freestanding furniture. Finished in neutral colours, with exposed pine floorboards, a sash window faces the front elevation and allows light to enter the room.
The house bathroom holds true to the period of this property. Decorated in a calming deep green blue tone, with exposed pine floorboards, a reclaimed sculpted sink, and cast iron bath standing central to the room. A built-in cupboard provides useful linen storage, and a sash window to the rear elevation allows for ventilation and light. A feature fireplace with iron surround and burgundy hearth tiles continue to tell the story of this home.
Separate to the house bathroom is the house toilet. A new and iconic Thomas Crapper high level cistern and W/C has been installed, alongside a matching Thomas Crapper hand wash basin complete with traditional style fixtures and fittings. Finished in neutral décor and exposed pine floorboards, this room remains as true as ever to the era of the property.
The cellar is a large and useable space, currently set up as a workshop and comes complete with electricity and plumbing.
Externally the property offers 2 very good sized outhouses and a further cellar.
One outhouse is currently used as a store and another remains set up as a traditional washroom, with two sinks and a fire pit. A Sheila Maid provides an opportunity for airing clothes, and there is space, electricity and plumbing for a washing machine, keeping it nicely separate from the main hub of the home. The Worcester Bosch combi boiler is also housed here.
An outdoor building houses a fully plumbed and working toilet, thought to be an original feature of the property.
The yard is an excellent size, fully secure and is laid with concrete. A pedestrian door leads to the private road where you can access a shared parking area. Parking in this area is available on a first come, first served basis.
