DESCRIPTION

Prospect House is an imposing traditionally constructed stone built townhouse formed over three levels and is arguably one of the finest houses in the town. Set within extensive garden ground it offers a degree of privacy and seclusion with potential to erect a further dwelling house subject to permission. Having undergone a recent refurbishment programme by the present owners no expense has been spared with quality finishing throughout including bespoke fitted kitchen with granite worktops, four piece family bathroom with Jacuzzi bath, Karndean flooring, gas fired central heating and double glazing. Adjoining the main house is a useful stone built outbuilding which is presently used as a studio/workshop with log burning stove and separate tack room. There is a single garage and gravelled parking area with ample space for parking several cars. Fine gardens complement this property and have been laid out for easy maintenance with a neat laid out area of lawn, patio and charming courtyard area.
