A Grade II listed townhouse requiring renovation within this prime location on the edge of the medieval grid. Offered with no onward chain.
Situated within a prime location on the edge of the medieval grid with this attractive terrace, 59 Westgate Street is a traditional Regency townhouse, dating back to 1810 with grey brick elevations under a slate-tiled roofline.
The property retains some original features to include cornicing and dado rails, whilst benefitting from replacement sash windows to the front and uPVC windows to the rear elevation.
The property is now ripe for updating, and whilst we haven’t carried out any form of survey, we would expect potential buyers to be prepared to upgrade the heating and electrics, whilst we also note the flat roof above bedroom 2 appears to be perished and causing some minor water ingress.
The property itself provides charming and well-proportioned accommodation arranged over three floors extending to 815sq-ft comprising 6-panel timber door with fanlight above, leading to a sitting room with window to the south, fireplace (closed) with gas point, and opening to the dining room, with laminate flooring.
The kitchen is fitted with base and eye level storage, preparation worktop and inset stainless steel sink with drainer, space for freestanding cooker and washing machine, window and door to the garden. There is a staircase that leads down to the basement, with window and vent to the front aspect and storage cupboard.
The first-floor landing has access to the water tank and loft hatch, with two double bedrooms, both benefitting from building in wardrobes, whilst being served by a modern bathroom, comprising a white suite with P-shaped bath with shower and screen, built-in vanity unit with inset sink and WC, wall-mounted mirror, towel rail, tiled walls and floors.
Outside
There is a small courtyard garden to the rear of the property and parking is available by resident’s permit in the Zone D area of the town centre.
