An impressive four-storey period townhouse set within the highly regarded Castle Hill & Russell Street Conservation Area. These attractive homes were constructed by the Jesse family in the 1870s and are instantly recognisable by their elegant concave, metal-roofed verandas and front gardens enclosed by traditional railings. The location is particularly appealing to buyers seeking a central yet characterful setting, with the town’s shops, restaurants and mainline station all within comfortable walking distance. The accommodation is both generous and well balanced. The principal living room is a standout feature, complete with internal shutters, a fireplace and French doors opening onto the veranda, and is complemented by an adjoining family room, also with a fireplace. The ground floor provides a sociable kitchen with central island, opening through to a dining room featuring a fireplace and quarry-tiled flooring. There are four bedrooms arranged over the upper floors. The principal bedroom occupies the first floor along with the family bathroom and benefits from an en suite bathroom. The three further bedrooms are located on the second floor. The property retains a wealth of original period features, including fireplaces and sash windows, and is offered to the market with no onward chain.

Garden - The walled garden offers the opportunity for the incoming purchasers to design the garden to their own style and specification. There is pedestrian rear gated access leading to a shared passageway whilst to the front of the property there is a covered veranda with railings and an area of garden enclosed by railings with a tiled pathway.
