ALLERSMEAD
 
 
 
 
A prestigious Edwardian family home, set in 1/4 acre of garden with mature trees. Drive with turning circle and ample parking space. Marble tiled entrance hall, imposing oak staircase to first floor.
 
Stunning drawing room with original fireplace. Paneled study with De Morgan tiles to fireplace. Further sitting room opening onto wide veranda overlooking the garden. Cloakroom. Large kitchen. Scullery and pantry.
 
Seven bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor. Five further rooms and toilet on attic floor. Extensive cellar.
 
A rare opportunity to acquire an impressive house of the pre-First World War period, with original stained glass and other period features, and grounds that could be delightfully landscaped, or considered for further development. Allersmead would also lend itself to institutional use, or conversion into flats. The property would benefit from extensive modernization, and is in need of some repairs, but offers a unique opportunity to the discerning buyer.
 
Price on application.
