Description
This charming Grade II Listed town house occupies an enviable location along Rectory Street, in the very heart of the desirable and well regarded market town of Halesworth, and just a short walk from the picturesque Bridge Street area.
According to the listing schedule, 6 Rectory Street is believed to date from the early 18th Century. In 2014 the vendors, who have enjoyed living at the property for over 20 years, commissioned a rear extension to create a delightful, open plan kitchen/breakfast room, that acts as an additional reception area. The extension was designed and built in a sympathetic yet contemporary style that included plenty of glazing and a vaulted ceiling resulting in the room being extremely light and spacious.
The remainder of the accommodation is arranged over three floor, with a sitting room and snug/dining room on the ground floor, two good sized double bedrooms on the first floor, together with a spacious shower room, plus two attic bedrooms on the second floor.
Outside the courtyard has been landscaped with stepped terraced areas and useful outbuildings including ‘Rectory Barn’; a studio type building that is used as a study/hobby room, but which could be further improved if required to act as ancillary accommodation to the main house – subject to the necessary consents. Permit parking is available in Rectory Street, but the vendor also owns a parking space nearby that is available by separate negotiation.
