Property
The property comprises a traditionally styled 2-storey terraced, rendered and painted stone building surmounted by a timber framed and pitched roof overlaid in slate with extensions to the rear. The extensions are single storey in nature, of what we assume to be built in blockwork, overlaid in roughcast and rendered under a variety of roof’s. The first two are smaller extensions having flat roofs, with the main rear extension, added approx 2009, having a tiled mono-pitched roof and rendered elevations. The rear elevation is built up to East Road at the rear. The rear of the demise benefits from a secondary access via East Road, this being a quiet, relatively narrow and mostly residential street.
The property was previously used as a limited service guest house, and is laid out to provide entrance hall with controlled entry door, opening to a service desk, this leading to the 9 no. letting rooms of varying sizes and configurations, with only 2 no. not having en-suite facilities. Within the original 2 storey building, 2 bedrooms are located on the ground floor with separate utility / laundry room and further 2 bedrooms at upper floors accessed via a central stairway, with small kitchen and utility area plus shower room and toilet.
A single corridor at ground floor leads to sink / cleaner cupboard, rear extensions and a single letting room to the rear of the corridor itself. Exiting to an external walkway, a further 4 letting rooms are accessible each with en suite facilities within the later extension. Each room has dedicated entrance by way of UPVC does and windows which can be accessed from East Road.
