The property is situated opposite to St Mary's Church within the town centre conservation area, adjacent to the Georgian cobbled Market Square and town centre facilities.
This three storey house is dated early 18th Century with a "shop front" circa 1875, colour washed brickwork, symmetrical Georgian windows, a cast iron crested cornice and pantiled roof. The property could be described as an elegant landmark within the historic town centre of Newark on Trent, and within walking distance of a wide range of facilities, with Newark Northgate Railway Station with services to London King's Cross and Newark Castle Railway Station with services to Lincoln and Nottingham.
The accommodation provides on the ground floor an entrance lobby, kitchen, inner hall, wet room and a 22ft sitting room with vaulted ceiling. There is a barrel vaulted cellar. Stairs lead to the first floor landing with a fine Georgian drawing room, having two shuttered windows just opposite to St Mary's Church. Bedroom one with a vanity basin and low suite WC en suite is on this floor level. A wide and easy winding staircase leads to the second floor mezzanine level storeroom. Double sized bedroom two with Georgian windows facing the church. The winding staircase continues to the second floor bedroom three with vaulted ceiling.
The walled garden L-shaped with a corner patio, lean-to timber storage shed and various climbing plants is a particular feature of the property and totally secluded.
The town centre location in which this property is situated is steeped in history and character. The beautiful Grade I listed parish Church of St Mary's is immediately opposite to the property and noteable for the spire being the highest in Nottinghamshire. Close by is the National Civil War Centre, the Palace Theatre, the 12th Century Castle and the riverside area. The town centre with its cobbled Market Place is well known for Georgian and earlier buildings, as well as twice weekly general markets. There is a choice of restaurants and public houses within the town centre areas. Morrisons, Aldi, Waitrose and the Northgate Retail Park are within comfortable walking distance.
