Arguably one of the most iconic and noted properties in Welshpool, Dorothy Hughes House is an Unlisted Victorian 3 storey town residence of immense history and importance. In recent years the property has served as self-contained accommodation for the elderly which has been well maintained and has the benefit of gas fired central heating. Now offered to the market with No Forward Chain. There are immense possibilities afforded for re-development or for a discerning purchaser to acquire a family home of distinction.
The property stands prominently within its landscaped gardens and grounds with level lawns and patios together with shrubbery and lower car park. There is great potential to create a suite of self-contained character apartments which could be well serviced by the lower car park (subject to obtaining the necessary Local Authority permissions and consents). The arrangement of the accommodation could also provide for a HMO, Bed and Breakfast or a building which could cater for a range of institutions.
As you enter the property there is a spacious 'L' Shaped Reception Hall with encaustic Victorian quarry tiled floor and double doors with stained glass fan light leading to the rear gallery with a striking two flight staircase, which has a stunning stained glass arched top window.
The ground floor provides for a Conservatory and Reception Room, together with Kitchen and Utility Area and there are currently 3 En-Suite Bedrooms with a further 5 En-Suite Bedrooms at first floor level. The remaining 2 Bedrooms on the second floor currently provide for a completely self-contained suite. The current arrangement has a total of 10 Bedrooms with features retained such as ornate cornicing and ceiling roses with rooms of good height that enjoy double aspect views across the grounds to the Long Mountain and Severn Valley countryside.
The stunning architectural points of interest include the decorative tiled roof and arched topped sash windows and the property has ornate terracotta ridge tiles and finials.
