A GRAND EDWARDIAN TOWNHOUSE OVERLOOKING ABINGTON PARK.
Elmside is a substantial and imposing period property located in the Abington Park Conservation Area occupying a prominent position overlooking Abington Park itself. The spacious and versatile living accommodation is arranged over three floors and retains many original features such as cornice work, stain glass windows, original fireplaces and picture rail together with high ceilings. During their time at the property over the past twenty eight years or so the current owners have both maintained and improved the main house which also offers potential and further scope for modernisation. An inspection is highly advised in order to fully appreciate the location, extent and design of this substantial home within one of Northampton’s most sought after town locations.
On the ground floor, an entrance lobby with a lovely stained glass door provides access to the main reception hall. A grand staircase rises to the first floor landing with access provided to the principal living accommodation. This comprises a main sitting room with a feature bay window with views of Abington Park and an original fireplace surround. There is also a second good sized reception room with an open fireplace and bay window with door providing access to a rear terrace and gardens beyond. Also from the main reception hall access is provided to a cloakroom and a small inner lobby which has door access to the cellar. Beyond the inner lobby there is a kitchen/dining room with original fitted cupboards to the dining area. Refitted by the current owners around five years ago, the kitchen area comprises a range of bespoke base and eye level units with soft close drawers together with a Shaws sink set to Cimstone worktop surfaces. Further features include a larder store/cabinet with integrated AEG appliances to include an integrated dishwasher, microwave, electric oven, four plate induction hob with accompanying stainless steel extractor above.
