This exceptional four bedroom Grade II listed Georgian town house was built, we believe, in the early 1700's and is located within the Old Portsmouth conservation area. Known for its rich historical character, the area offers many historical buildings and features. Although the property itself has been meticulously updated, the essence of the original family home has been retained with spacious rooms, character features, sash windows and fireplaces. The decor has been chosen to compliment the period atmosphere but with stylish contemporary accents. From entering the property, stairs lead to upper and lower levels.
On the ground floor, there are two well-light reception rooms separated by an open brick fireplace, a brand-new Magnet fitted kitchen with an electronic skylight window and access directly into the integral garage. The basement has undergone an extensive renovation and comprises of a TV room, a further reception room/bedroom 4, a cloakroom, and ample storage space including two alcoves. There are three further double bedrooms occupying the upper levels of the property, the master benefits from an en-suite shower room and fitted Sharps wardrobes. The first floor also holds an additional reception room currently set up as a study, a four-piece bathroom suite with a roll top freestanding cast iron bath and access to an elevated sun terrace which enjoys plenty of sun and is paved for ease of maintenance. An early inspection is recommended to avoid disappointment.
