This substantial five-bedroom Georgian conversion sits on a large 0.16-acre plot in the heart of Whitchurch, offering 2,220 sq ft across three floors. Original features — sash windows, exposed beams and open fireplaces — give the house character, while the wide garage, driveway and unusually generous rear garden create practical family space. The property is freehold, in a low-crime, affluent area with fast broadband and easy walking access to the rail station and town amenities.
The flexible layout was formed by joining three cottages and produces multiple staircases and a non-standard room flow; this yields plenty of bedroom and storage space but may feel awkward for some buyers seeking a straightforward plan. There is a single family bathroom and one ground-floor WC for five bedrooms, which is an important consideration for busy households and may require updating for modern family life. Council tax is noted as expensive.
Outside, the rear garden is a standout — mainly lawn, mature borders, patio, pond, greenhouse, summerhouse and allotment space — plus gated rear access to a neighbouring street. The garage is wider than a single and offers power and lighting, accessed via a shared driveway. Proximity to well-rated schools, shops and the train station makes the house attractive to commuters and families who value convenience and character.
In short, this is a character-rich town-centre home with considerable space and outdoor amenity, best suited to families who value period charm and a large garden, and who are comfortable adapting to an unconventional internal layout and addressing the single bathroom limitation.
