The property retains some character features and benefits from Victorian style ceiling heights, believed to date back to the 1840’s with the traditional, stylish staircase still serving all five floors.

The terrace is an impressive architectural landmark in the town and the houses benefit from good, designated car parking and nice, long south facing townhouse gardens.
