Description
The house had been a long standing popular bed and breakfast with each bedroom having a vanity unit for the comfort of guests. The stairwell and entrances have fire-doors and stud walls creating privacy and security for the bedrooms which, when removed would create large landings for a family residence.
Whilst as a bed and breakfast, the kitchen and extension at the rear with the mezzanine floor acted as separate accommodation for the owners. As with neighbouring properties that share a similar design as 28 Inglis Road, this entire area has a large footprint and ideal to renovate into an impressive open plan kitchen that opens out on to the south facing garden.
The ground floor comprises; entrance hall with stairs leading to a useful cellar and the first floor. Three reception rooms with ornate coving, ceiling roses, fireplaces, engineered Oak flooring, and bay windows further occupy this floor, along with a family kitchen, a bathroom, and a shower room. The kitchen allows access into the one-bedroom annexe, which would make an ideal separate space for a relative, or an au pair, providing them with independence.
The first & second floors boast three double bedrooms, two of which come with en-suite whilst two family shower rooms service the remaining bedrooms.
To the front, there are three parking spaces and side access to an easily maintained south-facing rear garden.
