General Description
As you approach this grand property through a discreet opening from the road, it is hard to imagine that it is situated in a residential area as it is almost totally screened from the road opening out into a large imposing circular concrete driveway with lawn to each side and in the centre. It sits quite proudly within its own grounds which flow to the rear and both sides and there is immediately an air of decadence as you approach the front door. It is currently in need of some general updating but even taking this into account it still exudes period charm and has fantastic potential to resume the property to its original status. Currently the reception rooms are being utilised as bedrooms which can easily be restored to create the original reception space. There is a large well equipped kitchen, boasting marble effect granite work tops with access to the rear garden. There is double glazing sealed units throughout and gas central heating in place. This stunning property will be a lucrative investment for a growing family.
