There is a plethora of period features flourishing throughout and include beautifully high ceilings dressed in original cornicing, large sash windows, tall skirting boards and intricate architrave all of which add a wonderful depth of grandeur to this bright and airy abode.

The facade has exposed brickwork and wooden sash windows, with work currently underway to maintain the exterior of the property. A stained-glass doorway opens into a tiled communal hallway with attractive balustrade leading to the first floor.
