DESCRIPTION
54 St Andrew Street is a four storey historic townhouse of a sort rarely available in this bustling market town, and although now in need of some upgrading and modernisation, has been a beloved family home for many decades. Depending on whether you create a first floor reception room there are 4 to 5 bedrooms (inc 1 at attic level), and 2 to 3 reception rooms. The current sitting room on the ground floor runs the entire depth of the house and was once a ballet school run by the current owner’s mother. A good sized dining room sits across the generous entrance hall. The kitchen sits on the lower ground floor and features vintage built-in cupboarding. A useful and fascinating basement still has the old range echoing its former use as the main kitchen, as well as a set of brass bells. A stone-shelved pantry echoes the past also. An elegant curving staircase leads up from the ground floor passing the bathroom on the half landing and onwards to the first floor landing, from where all the main bedrooms can be accessed. The largest bedroom has been used as a sitting room in the past, or could be an impressive master bedroom. A small dressing room to the front lends itself to a number of possibilities including becoming an en-suite to bedroom 2, subject to obtaining all necessary permissions. The elegant curving staircase continues up from the first floor landing to the top floor. A fifth bedroom sits at attic level, accompanied by a number of attic store rooms. To the rear is an impressive garden, more fully described below. A pend from the street leads through to this, allowing for refuse bins and garden items to be transported without needing to go through the house. Parking is on street.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial townhouse and create a fantastic home in which to raise a family and create many happy memories, much in the same way as the current owner’s family did.

The garden stretches down towards an old original garden wall, which could be useful for growing certain climbing plants or to construct a lean-to greenhouse or summerhouse. There is much scope for creating new areas for outside entertaining and for childrens’ play. The pend leads from the patio area to St Andrew Street, and Number 52 next door has a right of access through it.
