This substantial Grade II listed Georgian townhouse offers over 2,000 sq ft of period accommodation arranged across three floors, with generous rooms, high ceilings and many original features. Its rear gardens run down to The Mere, providing rare direct water access and attractive outlooks from the property.
The house requires comprehensive modernisation throughout: services, decoration and garden renovation will be needed to revive the property. Listed status means works will need listed-building consent and may restrict alterations; buyers should budget for specialist surveys and permissions.
Practical positives include a large cellar for storage, a useful outbuilding with cloakroom and scope for alternative uses (subject to local authority consent), mains gas central heating and double glazing (install date unknown). The location is prestigious and convenient — within easy walking distance of Ellesmere’s shops, restaurants and well-regarded schools — making the house suitable for a large family seeking character and space, or an investor able to undertake a sensitive refurbishment.
Overall this is a characterful, edge-of-town home with strong long-term potential once upgraded, but it will suit buyers prepared for a significant renovation project and the constraints of listed ownership.
