A unique Grade II listed townhouse in a desirable market town. (Coach house with parking available separately as lot 2)

Description

Lot 1 The Elms
The Elms is a Grade II listed, eighteenth-century townhouse at the heart of Stow-on-the-Wold, overlooking the Market Square. The property is full of period character with a unique floor plan reflecting the property’s position in the corner of a terrace of period townhouses. The property has been a well-loved family home and now requires refurbishment and modernisation to create an amazing home.

The accommodation is set out over three floors with two generous reception rooms, five bedrooms, a family bathroom and a family shower room. Because part of the ground floor was used as an antique shop, the kitchen/dining room was situated on the first floor. Potential exists to integrate an adjoining workshop into the house and relocate the kitchen, subject to the usual consents.

The garden lies to the rear and is mainly laid to lawn.

Lot 2 Coach House.
To the rear of the property and accessed from Parsons Corner is a detached stone coach house with parking to the front with potential to develop subject to the usual planning consents. Please note that there is no direct access from The Elms to the coach house and parking.
