Overview

Having undergone a comprehensive scheme of refurbishment during 2020 and 2021, this Grade II Listed period townhouse has been beautifully remodelled over four floors, to include a cellar, thoughtfully combining modern living with a wealth of retained character features.

The property also features a Kaba master key system. A comprehensive schedule of works undertaken is available upon request.
