Newgate Street, Bingham

A rare opportunity to purchase a handsome, detached, double fronted period home located right at the heart of this well served and highly regarded market town, positioned within a short walking distance of the market square and its wealth of amenities.

This interesting individual home offers a versatile level of accommodation, providing three main reception rooms, up to five double bedrooms and three bath/shower rooms with each room offering its own individuality. The accommodation is entered via an initial entrance hall with an attractive spindle balustrade staircase rising to the upper floors and period doors leading to the front receptions providing a sitting and drawing room with a pleasant aspect down the front garden. A central dining room with an attractive exposed brick elevation leads into a fitted kitchen with walk in pantry off. In addition there is a spacious laundry/utility room with ground floor shower room off and from the dining area is access down to a cellar providing useful additional storage. To the first floor there are three double bedrooms, one of which is utilised as a first floor office, and a tastefully appointed contemporary shower room. To the second floor are two further double bedrooms, one of which benefits from ensuite facilities, and both offering elevated views across the town.

The internal accommodation is tastefully appointed in relatively neutral decoration and has been well maintained over the years, benefitting from attractive double glazed Georgian style sash windows to the front elevation and upgraded gas central heating boiler.

The nature of the accommodation would suit extended or growing families particularly making use of its three storey layout, making it ideal for those with teenagers making use of the top floor accommodation.

As well as the internal space the property occupies an attractive landscaped, established, plot set back behind a walled frontage with a central pathway bordered by lawned gardens, well stocked perimeter borders with a range of well maintained trees and shrubs, a useful lean to greenhouse and brick built potting shed. To the rear of the property is an enclosed courtyard garden which is landscaped for relatively low maintenance living, enclosed in the main by brick walls, having soft fruit cages and inset borders. The hard standing area provides potential additional off road car standing accessed off Moor Lane at the rear, having covered car port and adjacent workshops which provide excellent storage space or, subject to consent, possible use as an outside office, games room or gym.

Overall this is a rare opportunity to purchase an individual home within walking distance of the heart of the town with viewing coming highly recommended to appreciate both the location and accommodation on offer.
