Fortfield Place, Sidmouth

This attractive end of terrace Victorian townhouse occupies a fabulous position within 250 meters of the Esplanade and is offered for sale with no onward chain. The property retains many of its original features including bay windows, tall ceilings, picture and dado rails and ceiling cornice mouldings but has been tastefully modernised to offer total comfort throughout. The accommodation is arranged across four floors with the lower ground presently set up as a self contained apartment, however a few small amendments would allow the property to be returned to its traditional layout as the original staircases are still in place.

HOUSE
The ground floor accommodation is superbly presented and is set up perfectly for modern family living. The living room, which enjoys a large bay window overlooking the front and a beautiful cast iron fireplace, is an excellent reception space that adjoins the kitchen/dining room and can be separated by wooden bi-folding doors which open and close with ease to offer both an open plan and traditional living set-up. The dining area is a delightful, dual aspect space that features another beautiful cast iron fireplace and provides plenty of room for a generously sized dining suite. The kitchen offers an extensive range of modern fitted cream fronted base and wall mounted units that include a range of integral appliances and a large westerly facing window overlooking the rear courtyard. The ground floor also has a separate utility room with further cupboard units and space and plumbing for a washing machine. There is a cloakroom adjoining the utility room and a part glazed rear door that leads out to the courtyard.

Stairs rise to the upper floors with accommodation found across four half landings. A large airing cupboard and a bathroom comprising a rolltop bath with mixer tap and shower unit over, a low level wc and a wash basin are found at the first half landing. The rest of the first floor offers two double bedrooms, each with en suite shower rooms. Bedroom 1 also has the benefit of fitted wardrobes and an easterly facing balcony overlooking the front.

Stairs rise again towards the second floor. The second half landing features another bedroom which is presently set up as an office with two further double bedrooms, both again with en suite shower room on the second floor. This floor enjoys a delightful outlook across the town, along Salcombe Hill and up though the valley from the front and views towards Peak Hill from the rear.

APARTMENT
The lower ground floor apartment is access through a separate courtyard to the rear of the property. Steps lead down towards a part glazed door which opens into the kitchen/dining room. The kitchen area has a great range of wooden fronted base and wall mounted units with granite worksurfaces and upstands with space for a selection of appliances. An inner hallway is located at the rear of the kitchen/dining room that connects the remaining accommodation. There is a spacious living room with a delightful bay window overlooking the front gardens and an electric fire with slate hearth and wooden surround and mantle. The bedroom is a comfortably sized double room with two southerly facing windows to the side and a modern fitted bathroom comprising a panelled bath with electric shower unit over, a low level wc, heated towel rail and wall mounted basin with storage below. A lockable door conceals the original staircase which connects the lower ground floor apartment and the rest of the property together however, a temporary floor has been placed at ground floor level.

Each property has a westerly facing courtyard to the rear. Both courtyards are fence enclosed and laid with an attractive grey patio slab for ease of maintenance. Parking is located beyond the courtyard with additional parking to the side of the property.

A super property in a supremely convenient location. Early inspection recommended.
