An elegant chain free Victorian town house, beautifully restored and retaining period features throughout, located in the heart of the prestigious Milverton area of Royal Leamington Spa.

Stone steps flanked by cast iron railings lead up to the brass-accessorised front door. On entering into the light and well-proportioned entrance hall you immediately sense the character and warmth this beautiful home has to offer. High ceilings, double-glazed sash windows, moulded cornicing and ceiling roses are set alongside grand fireplaces, brass fittings, turned balustrades and an original solid-wooden handrail.

The open plan dining room is well-proportioned and spacious enough to seat eight adults comfortably. The fireplace is set under a sweeping mantel and flanked by two glazed and light fitted cabinets. The decorative ceiling rose, and brass candelabra draw the eye. The large internal sash window has been retained and provides views through to the kitchen and the garden beyond. The sitting room to the front of the property features a large and double-glazed sash bay window, sumptuous-lined curtains, deep pile carpets, and an open cast iron fireplace set under a striking Italian marble mantel.

To the rear of the property, the ground floor opens into the recently extended and refurbished kitchen. This boasts a feature triple-glazed sloped glass ceiling to one side with a glass rear wall comprising a large window and bi-fold sliding doors to the outdoor dining space and garden allowing light to stream into the property from a southerly aspect. The kitchen is topped by beautiful white quartz surfaces and fitted with AEG appliances including a double oven, a combi oven and an induction hob, an American style fridge/freezer with water and ice dispenser and a Belfast sink complete with a Michel Le Roux hose mixer tap.

The basement is accessed from the entrance hall and is fully converted and tanked with four rooms with ample headroom, mirroring the footprint above. The wooden steps down lead to a hallway with parquet flooring where a large bookshelf is set under the staircase.
Off the hall is a snug (used as a media room) complete with original housekeeper’s cast iron fireplace. Separately there is a large utility room, and an office found at the rear of the hall. There is also a separate W/C and a cloakroom/storage room, which is currently used as a wine cellar.

From the hallway the stairs rise to a mid-landing leading to the first spacious bathroom equipped with twin showers and his and hers handwash basins, set either side of a vanity space. Deluxe chrome Victorian style fittings and large shower heads are set alongside a heated chrome towel rail and large feature mirror. Also on this landing is a useful storage room. Up a few more stairs to the first floor landing is the large main bedroom at the front of the property and well-proportioned rear-facing second double bedroom. The 20 sq. metre master bedroom features a period cast iron fireplace, large double-glazed sash windows, decorative architrave and picture rail and a beautiful ceiling rose. The second bedroom has similar character features to the master.

Rising up the staircase to the second floor leads to a further landing from where the second large bathroom is accessed. The 12 sq. metre second bathroom boasts a free-standing mirrored cast-iron bathtub positioned under two matching double-glazed roof windows. His and hers sinks are set on a large teak storage cabinet and are complimented by tall mirrors and chrome mixer taps. A separate open shower cubicle contains a rain shower and handheld for convenience. The Victorian radiator is set next
to a teak bench with polished steel towel rail above. Travelling up the final few steps, at the top of the landing are two further well-proportioned double bedrooms, both with brass light fittings. Above these bedrooms is a useful loft space which runs the length of the property.

The kitchen bi-fold doors open out onto a south-facing outdoor space with a tiled area (and a walk-on light well) giving way to Indian Sandstone paving. The space is an ideal outdoor dining room for entertaining and eating, and is complete with shrubs to the left hand side and rear. Beyond, the double garage at the rear of the property is accessed
from the garden or via a no-through service road, and is fitted with an double garage door with a built in pedestrian access gate. It is spacious enough to fit two cars or alternatively provides ample additional storage space.
