Elegant Grade II Listed town house with grounds of approximately half an acre, offering a good deal of seclusion

Lansdowne House is a substantial and imposing Grade II Listed family home dating back to the late 18th Century with later additions.
The property is beautifully located at the western end of Sheep Street with off-street parking and vehicular access to the main gardens situated off Darlingscote Road.
The property has evolved over the years with the central stone cottage and the barn added to Lansdowne House to create the accommodation on offer. The main part of the house is built of brick with a slate roof and the former cottage and barn, of stone and a slate/tile roof.
There are numerous period features such as original pane sash windows, high ceilings, exposed ceiling and A-frame timbers, attractive fireplaces, traditional wooden doors and architraves, and stairwell balustrades. The numerous bathrooms are finished to a good standard with marble and vintage-style fittings.
