4 bedroom townhouse
Key information
Property description & features
- Tenure: Freehold
Situated in one of Bury’s most sought-after locations, 3 St Mary’s Square is an elegant Grade II listed town house, built of traditional construction, with the original core dating back to the 15th-century along with a later 18th-century additions and red-brick façade.
The property retains many original features, which include a 15th-century staircase, molded cornicing with architrave, open fireplaces and exposed timbers, whilst many modern improvements have been made in recent times, to include recessed downlighting, new boiler, bespoke cabinetry and updated bathrooms.
The accommodation extends to around 2,500ft2 arranged over three floors, comprising a 6-panel Georgian front door with fan light to a reception hall with staircase to the first floor, dado rail and archway leading to the original 15th-century staircase, and access to a cellar with original arched recesses and built-in wine bins.
The drawing room has two shuttered sash windows with window seats and views across the square, open fireplace with molded surround with Carrara marble slips and mantelpiece, bespoke cupboards and book-shelving.
The sitting/dining room is a comfortable reception room with glazed double doors leading to the modern kitchen, which we assume was a 20th-century addition with a more modern vaulted roof-light with glazed end wall with doors to the garden and views over to the cathedral tower.
The kitchen is fitted with a range of painted shaker-style base and wall units with granite work surface, inset stainless steel sink with granite drainer, Aga with extractor canopy above, 2-ring ceramic hob with electric oven, built-in dishwasher and door to the utility room and cloakroom.
The first-floor landing leads to the principal bedroom enjoying views across the square, a range of built-in wardrobes and en suite shower room, with further double bedroom with views to the north-west overlooking the cathedral tower, and adjoining shower room and linen cupboard.
The second floor staircase divides into two ‘wings’, with two double bedrooms and good-sized family bathroom.
Outside
The garden is of particular note, being largely landscaped and walled with a variety of mature plants, perennials and trees, potting shed and pedestrian access leading to a shared rear pathway, which leads to Sparhawk Street. A parking space is located at the front of the property.
Services
Mains water, drainage, electricity and gas are connected.
