4 bedroom character property for sale

BANK APARTMENT

Bank Apartment, a Grade II listed building with its stunning Georgian frontage sits proudly on Henley High Street. Our clients tell us the property dates back in parts to the 15th Century and has some later additions. The apartment is very spacious, around 2258 sq ft, and offers flexible living and sleeping accommodation which is full of the kind of period features you would expect to find in a property of this age, including some original internal doors, high ceilings, feature archways, an abundance of beams, quirky internal steps and original sash windows which have been restored by the current owners.

The property would benefit from some updating and enhancement throughout, but has the potential for the new owners to stamp their mark on this unique home ideally mixing modern-day living alongside original charm and character that this property oozes.

The property is approached via Beaudesert Lane where you will find two parking spaces and an intercom gateway through to the rear garden which is surprisingly large and private. The ground floor offers a lobby area ideal for storing shoes and coats with stairs leading to the first floor accommodation.

The first floor offers a well-proportioned, beamed dining kitchen which the current owners have refitted sympathetically during their time there. Having a feature fireplace (currently not in working order) with the original oak built-in storage surrounding, Shaker style eye, and base level units with a modern large breakfast island with more cupboards and drawers beneath. Built-in gas range cooker, inset double sink and drainer, integrated dishwasher and washing machine, and lovely wooden flooring. This characterful kitchen certainly feels like the heart of the home! Also on the first floor are two good size double bedrooms, one with a Jack and Jill bathroom, a family bathroom, and a good size living room to the front elevation.

On the second floor there are two further double bedrooms, one with a useful room attached which could ideally be used as a dressing room, an occasional room/study area or a hobby room with a private office space close by. This second floor offers lots of potential to utilise the space in different ways, depending on the needs of the new owners.

With parking spaces for two vehicles, access to the property is through the good-sized rear garden through a gated entrance. The owners of the property have the right to use and maintain this lovely private space to the rear. Currently mainly laid to lawn with mature trees and hedging, part walled and fenced with a useful garden shed hidden away from view. A pathway leads you to the entrance to the property.

This well-appointed home is ideal for those discerning buyers with a vision to create a stunning period home whilst mixing old charm with modern interiors. For those wanting to be close to local amenities, good schooling, and the fabulous restaurants and public houses in the ever-popular Henley in Arden, this family home is in the perfect place!
