Property Description
‘A most Unique & Historic, late Georgian Townhouse’
Circa: 1820
RESTORATION PROJECT – PRINCIPALS ONLY
LOCATION: This south facing property lies just north west and adjacent to the immediate city centre, facing onto the Lee Channel. All amenities are to hand from this prominently positioned and well located property within this historic locale.
NOTE: Cash purchaser required.
DESCRIPTION: This is a most worthy and substantial restoration project. The townhouse forms part of a notable and late Georgian terrace. This three storey, three bay residence with its light filled and southern orientation is ‘Listed’ under the category of artistic and special interest Reg No. 2050039. The ornate plaster work and general features are for the greater part intact. The property has been in the same family for 3 generations and this ‘Rare Gem’ is part of the city’s miniscule, diminishing and historic period, stock. The high and ornately decorated ceilings and large south facing windows creates a constant flow of light, within these elegantly proportioned rooms. The uniqueness of the property will be evident on inspection.
