The Property
Entering 8 Earsham Street we pass the pillared entrance and push open the front door where a decorative fanlight above hints toward the grandeur and dating of the original building. A lobby welcomes us before stepping into the impressive entrance hall where our dog leg staircase rises to the first floor. To the right we step into the first reception room where two sash windows are framed with the original wooden shutters. Light pours into the space and two cabinets are set to either side of the closed chimney. A door from here leads to a second large reception room where a window looks to the rear and we find a variety of safes set within the walls. Back in the hall we pass under the stairs case and find a walk in safe and door to the cellar. At the rear of the hall a door opens to the rear alley whilst internally a second hallway leads down to the kitchen and lavatory areas. A door from the kitchen again leads to the alley. A third good sized reception room is set off the hall, this would ideally incorporate with the kitchen to provide a modern family kitchen/dining room. A door from here opens to the parking space. Climbing the stairs we find a door on the half landing which opens to a covered external area which could possibly serve as a roof garden/terrace. The stairs continue to rise to the first floor landing. From here we find a large bedroom which mirrors the main reception room enjoying two windows onto Earsham Street and taking in a view of the castle above the roof tops. Two further double bedrooms lead from the main landing and a current large storage room is set adjacent to the main bedroom offering a potential dressing room or en-suite. Stepping to the rear of the building we pass stairs to the second floor and a door leads to a large inner hallway. The inner hall leads to a further large double bedroom space and the bathroom. Completing the accommodation we step onto the second floor from the close tread staircase. Two further rooms are found on the second floor going into the roof space one leading through the other. A store room leads off the front bedroom.
