The tiled flooring continues into the kitchen on the right to the rear of the property. The kitchen itself has a good range of fitted units, space for freestanding appliances and a window overlooking the garden. A door from the kitchen opens into a rear lobby that has doors to both a downstairs WC and to the rear garden.

The main reception room sits to the other side of the hallway and like the entrance hall, spans the depth of the property with a dual aspect allowing plenty of light and an open fire.

A further set of stairs from the first-floor landing rises to a second floor 35 ft. long attic room, covering the entire footprint of the building. The space is enhanced by four dormer windows. The attic room itself is ripe for conversion and could offer additional bedroom and bathroom accommodation.

Outside - Tudor House II is an impressive period home with an exceptionally large plot complete with garage and off-road parking to the rear, a rarity in Uppingham town centre. The building has a wonderful presence and is aesthetically pleasing with symmetry and beautiful stonework. The hundred- and fifty-foot garden is furnished with an array of soft planting, shrubs and trees and a path that meanders its way to the far end where there is secondary access into the double garage.

The main entrance, on the south face, is accessed straight off the pavement with the driveway accessed from round the corner on Orange Street. A “right of access” between numbers 7 & 9 on Orange Street provides access to a vehicle hardstanding and the double garage.
