2 The Gatehouse is an impressive Grade II listed property located on one of the most desirable roads within the heart of the charming market town of Leominster. The property has a striking stucco façade with extensive period features both externally and internally and offers spacious accommodation arranged over four floors.

Upon entering the property, one immediately gets a sense of the grandeur, with the hall exhibiting high ceilings and attractive oak doors and architrave. To the left of the hall is the dining room, which has dual aspect windows with shutters, a corner fireplace and beautiful oak panelled walls. A door leads through to the drawing room, a generously proportioned space featuring stunning cornicing to the ceiling, as well as a fireplace fitted with a log burning stove and a display niche to the side, two tall French doors and picture rails. Beyond is the study, which offers a useful space to work.

The kitchen is accessed off the hall and has a range of wall and base units with space for appliances, together with an integrated oven, electric and gas hobs, with an extractor hood above. A door and steps lead down to the garden room, which in turn gives access out to the courtyard and down some steps to two cellar rooms, one of which is used as a utility room. Opposite the door to the utility room is a gated door providing space for a wine cellar.

A staircase leads from the hall to a mezzanine landing at the end of which is a WC. Stairs lead up to a spacious landing area on the first floor, providing access to two double bedrooms and a reading room with French doors leading out to the roof terrace. Adjacent to the reading room is the bathroom.

To the second floor there are a further three bedrooms, the larger of these rooms featuring stunning exposed ceiling timbers, giving a hint to the original age of the property. There is also a separate shower room and loft storage room.

OUTSIDE The property has a charming courtyard to the rear, with well-stocked flower beds and a gravelled seating area. The flower beds that flank the exterior of the property have an imbedded irrigation system. As previously mentioned there is a delightful roof terrace accessed from the first floor, which has a southerly aspect and offers a private space within which to sit. Located to the rear of the property is a separate attached brick building (with power and light) offering garaging and /workshop/storage space. The garage has a second storey offering great potential for conversion (subject to the necessary planning consents) into a home office or similar if required.
