2 Queen Square is an historic Limestone fronted Grade II* Listed townhouse, arranged over five floors of stunning accommodation, complete with a canopied refurbished first floor balcony, superb internal courtyard garden and an allocated off-street parking space on the square.
The house was comprehensively refurbished a number of years ago, the current owners have created a truly stunning lower ground floor annex, with underfloor heating. This disused space has been converted into an established Airbnb business to create a significant additional income with an extremely high occupancy rate, as well as having a comprehensively decorated interior and exterior throughout.
The accommodation follows a traditional Georgian plan, with the hall and upper floors providing four storeys of exceptionally versatile family accommodation.
Of particular note is the exquisite kitchen, with underfloor heating, a mezzanine dining room and internal courtyard to the rear, beautifully juxtaposing the retained period details of the original house with sumptuous modern architecture and a nod to how families wish to live and socialise today.
Upstairs, the tranquil south facing sitting room overlooks Queen Square with three three-quarter height sash windows, opening up onto the canopied refurbished balcony. A perfect place for a sundowner and to watch the world go by.
Across the second floor lies an exquisite master bedroom suite; with a fullwidth double bedroom to the front with superb recessed storage and views over the Square; along with a “hidden door” leading to the fabulous en-suite bath and shower room – which is also accessible from the landing. The en-suite is beautifully finished, with a contemporary twin-ended bath and an oversize walk-in shower along with a w.c, wash basin and wall mounted towel ladder.
Above, across the top floor are three further bedrooms providing a huge degree of versatility, served by a recently fitted family bath and shower room – with a sumptuous walk-in shower, separate bath, w.c, wash basin and heated towel ladder.
The loft has been designed to utilise the space and is successful in creating a great deal of further valuable storage options.
The new one bedroom annex can be reached internally if additional family / guest accommodation is required or kept separate if used in a self-contained capacity. The latest iteration of this superb home; retaining the lower ground floor's original stone barrelled ceiling with underfloor heating and introducing touches of beautiful cabinetry works and a luxury en-suite bathroom complete with a repurposed “safe” door; a remanent of the property's former use as a private bank.
Outside
Sympathetically crafted into the rear of the building is a fabulous internal courtyard, accessed via oversize glazed doors and truly “bringing the outside in”. A lovely space to stroll into in the morning for breakfast or to open up in the evening if entertaining friends.
Above, accessed from the mezzanine dining room is a roof terrace, also linking the dining room to the first floor half-landing.
To the front is access to an allocated off-street parking space on the square; along with residence parking available. Whilst the front of the house itself is accessed via a pedestrian gate and an attractive cast-iron railed south-facing courtyard, with steps down the lower ground floor annex.
