2 Bedroom Apartment for sale in Dorset

1 2 1

Part of the elegant 'Wadham House' development – a grade 2 Listed Townhouse which has been cleverly and sympathetically converted into five, stylish and individual apartments together with one cottage.

This original Georgian Townhouse, built in the early 1800's has all the panache and style of the period, with deep sash pane windows, fanlights, iron balustrading and high ceilings. An elegant communal reception hall provides an imposing entrance, with a low-rising staircase leading to the first floor where this generously proportioned apartment is located.

The welcoming ENTRANCE HALL with doors to all rooms also has a generous built-in cupboard. The original grand drawing room now provides a particularly appealing OPEN PLAN KITCHEN with DINING/SITTING ROOM. Notably bright and airy courtesy of three large south-facing sash windows overlooking High West Street. On a practical note, the kitchen area has been thoughtfully designed to accommodate the ample storage units with food preparation work surfaces; integral appliances include an oven, halogen hob, with fume hood over, and refrigerator/freezer. An Island unit provides still further storage. Readily able to accommodate a sizeable table and chairs for entertaining, the sitting room area is centred around the retained period fireplace (now sealed) providing a timeless and elegant focal point.

Located to the rear of this elegant apartment are the TWO BEDROOMS, again with high ceilings and sash windows. Concluding the elegant accomodation and serving the two bedrooms is the spacious contemporary SHOWER ROOM. The suite comprising walk-in shower cubicle, wash hand basin together with a WC.

Offered with no forward chain.
