The City Centre is easily reached, being a very pleasant stroll along Great Pulteney Street, and the canal provides excellent flat walking and cycling.

Description
Entering the house via the front door, you are welcomed into a spacious reception hall which also creates a sitting area with built-in period cupboards. To the rear of the hall is a fine dining room with large sash window affording views across the gardens at the rear. At the rear of the dining room is a door through to a lobby that leads out to the garden and a very handy cloakroom, ideal if you have guests.
Stairs lead down to a charming kitchen with high quality cupboards and granite worktops. There is a gas ranger cooker and integrated appliances include a fridge, freezer and dishwasher. A large understairs cupboard provides handy, extra kitchen storage. To the side is a door out to the main vault which offers good space as a utility room with plumbing for washing machine and dryer. A further door also takes you to the inner courtyard with a door to the second vault.
To the rear of the lower ground floor there is an excellent breakfast room with attractive tongue and groove panelling and a further period fireplace. There is a hallway to the side of the breakfast room which leads out to a further cloakroom and then out to the garden via the back door. There are three good sized storage cupboards that run along the hallway.
On the first floor you find the beautifully grand drawing room with large sash windows facing the views and giving a great sense of light and space, another period fireplace with cast iron insert and there is a charming little niche in the wall, ideal for displaying an antique piece. Also on the first floor is our clients’ study, although this could quite easily be used as a further bedroom, should this be required.
On the second floor, you find the master bedroom facing the fantastic views across the City and to the west. There is a well-appointed bathroom with twin hand basins, bath with overhead shower and a glazed screen. There is also a bedroom to the front of the house, again with built-in cupboards and a fireplace.
On the top floor there are two bedrooms and a family bathroom. Please note that the ceiling height is partially lower to the front landing and bedroom.
Externally
Off the rear of the house is a pretty terrace with an attractive built-in stone bench. The main gardens to the rear are mainly laid to lawn and are flanked by mature trees and shrubs. There is a beautiful catalpa tree on the right hand side.
