Description

Broadway House is an impressive Grade II listed period family home, originally a Tudor cottage and with later Georgian additions. The elegant accommodation has been sympathetically updated whilst retaining many of the original features with the accommodation arranged over three generous floors.

Upon entering the house you are greeted by a handsome open reception hall with a welcoming log burning stove and a handy office to the rear. The sweeping original staircase takes you to a first floor drawing room and the upper floor.

There is a good sized kitchen/dining room, beautifully fitted with bespoke, hand painted units, built in appliances, an AGA and a pantry. The kitchen door opens on to a courtyard and through to a two-bay parking area. The property benefits from a separate utility room that leads through to an orangery and onto the gardens beyond.

The first floor can be accessed by one of two staircases; the main staircase leads to a drawing room, a guest bedroom and the principal bedroom with vaulted ceiling with original 17th Century beams, a useful dressing room or nursery and en-suite bathroom.

The second staircase is situated between the kitchen and utility room leading to the principal bedroom and en-suite. On the top floor, there are two further double bedrooms, a family bathroom and loft storage area.

Outside, the pretty walled garden has been landscaped, predominantly laid to level lawn providing an idyllic haven from the vibrant old town, with a vine-shaded pergola, outdoor kitchen area and herbaceous borders. Furthermore, the courtyard area, accessed from the kitchen and via gated access from the rear garden, has been re-laid to paving leading to a shingle pathway and parking for two cars and an open fronted store.

To the front of the property is an area laid to stone with a pathway to the front door, the iron railings fronting the property which have been recently faithfully reinstated. There is a further cobbled area for parking.
