A classic Georgian townhouse with studio annexe overlooking the historic Market Hill.

Listed Grade II* Hatherley House, with its classically handsome and balanced parapeted Georgian facade enjoys a prominent position on the Market Hill, with views to the iconic Shire Hall and magnificent St Mary’s Church.

Within, the house, with its high ceilings, offers well laid out, elegantly-presented, flexible use accommodation, extending to some 3,874 sq ft and benefits from improvements made by the present vendors On the ground floor a pedimented panelled front door accesses a wide reception hall with an attractive arch into the inner hall, set off which are the two well-proportioned principal reception rooms, with the drawing room featuring three deep shuttered sash windows and a marble surround fireplace with a wood burning stove, whilst the equally well-proportioned dining room has full height French doors into the garden. These rooms have recently replaced oak boarded floors.

The sizeable, fully fitted kitchen/breakfast room features a central island, granite work surfaces and a gas-fired AGA, together with a large walk-in pantry. There is also a cellar and cloakroom.

On the first floor, set off a spacious central landing with decorative arches, are four double bedrooms and two bath/shower rooms, with the two front bedrooms enjoying lovely views across the varied and colourful buildings of the Market Hill. The staircase continues to a second-floor study landing, with the fifth bedroom, its en suite bathroom and loft space access beyond.

The property benefits from a gas-fired central heating system with a modern Nest remotely controllable system.

OUTSIDE – STUDIO ANNEXE

Set within the courtyard is an independent 740 sq ft, flexible use, two storey guest annexe/studio/at home office/games room, which offers a spacious ground floor living room, with kitchenette and an equally sizeable first floor bedroom with en suite bathroom.
