Description

HISTORY
The Friary has a wealth of history, it is situated on the site of a vanished house of Observant Friars circa 1507 and then the Austin Friars circa 1554. The property is described in some detail by Nicholas Pevsner in his book entitled “The Buildings of England”. Pevsner wrote his article prior to the conversion of the property in the late 1980's and describes the building as 17th century in its earlier part, remodelled in 1770 and further alterations carried out between 1868 and 1877.

DESCRIPTION
Externally, a stone archway leads to the front door and in turn, through to an entrance lobby. The lobby lends direct access to a WC and follows on to the ground floor accommodation, comprising;

A snug / family room, offering a pleasant, informal seating area with an exposed stone wall, stained glass feature window and high ceiling with inset spot lights.

A hugely impressive, triple aspect sitting room, spanning some 30ft in length with stone mullion windows, a focal point open fire with marble surround and a dining area to the end of the room.

The kitchen is positioned to the south elevation and incorporates a range of sage green base and wall units, some of which are floor to ceiling cabinets, solid wood worktops, a central chef’s island, an attractive stone tiled floor and a beamed ceiling. Appliances within the kitchen include a Belfast sink, overlooking the communal gardens, a Smeg microwave oven, Smeg electric fan oven and space and plumbing for a washing machine and dishwasher. A door from the kitchen leads out to the one of the communal garden spaces.

The principal bedroom enjoys a dual aspect view with vaulted ceilings, built-in wardrobes and benefits a contemporary en suite shower room, holding two surface mounted wash hand basins, a low level WC and a large walk-in shower enclosure.
