Room Details
Upon entering the property, one is greeted by the grand entrance hall with its high ceilings and period plasterwork, there is also the relic of a bygone era by way of a folding butlers table for resting trays while serving. The formal interconnecting reception rooms with their original doors and 12-foot ceilings are ideal for entertaining on a grand scale and the property has the benefit of being the only one on Royal Terrace West with a bay window at this level. In the first floor kitchen there are two delightful arched windows allowing a double aspect which fills the rooms with light. At garden level the owners opened the rooms to create a large Kitchen/ breakfast room reminiscent of a country house and there is a delightful family room leading off this with a French door leading to the garden making this level the living heart of the property. Upstairs one finds a main bedroom with walk in wardrobe and the potential to create an ensuite. There are two further bedrooms at this level and a good family bathroom on the return.
Throughout the property the owners have been careful to preserve the properties period features including decorative plasterwork, original folding shutters, doors and architraves and fireplaces. One charming small detail is that great care has been taken to select attractive door, and cupboard handles throughout that are in keeping with the era.
To the rear of the property is a 100ft garden laid out in a pleasant combination of grass, decking and mature planting with a sunken sheltered entertainment area floored in limestone flags. At the end of the garden there is access to a private laneway.
