Description
Springfield is a classic detached Georgian House understood to date back to circa 1794 and is Listed Grade II of Architectural or Historic importance built of stone (rendered) under a slate hipped roof Under the current ownership it has been subject to extensive and sympathetic refurbishment. The house offers numerous features typical of its age and type including high ceilings, window shutters, sash windows, deep skirting boards, ornate cornices and a sweeping staircase. The accommodation is well proportioned, extremely versatile and arranged over three floors with many of the rooms take advantage of the stunning sea views.
Accommodation
On entering the property via the stunning hallway, with sweeping staircase to one side, and garden room to your right, the main rooms are light and spacious with impressive high ceilings and full length windows or doors to enjoy the views. The kitchen has been designed with the cook in mind, with ample storage and worksurfaces and range cooker as well as integrated fridges, freezers and a wine fridge. There is space for informal dining to seat 8 in the kitchen, whilst the adjacent dining room will comfortably seat 14 or more, adjoining a snooker/games room. The impressive drawing room has a central fireplace and full length glass doors to the veranda, whilst a more informal sitting room makes an ideal family room.
Upstairs are six double bedrooms and five bathrooms all tastefully decorated whilst ensuring the period features of the house are sympathetically maintained and exhibited.
On the lower ground floor are a series of useful rooms used for storage, including a wine vault and workshop space. It would be possible (subject to planning and listed building consent) to create a self-contained flat with it's own access from the parking area.
Springfield benefits from delightful south and west facing enclosed gardens to the rear and side enjoying the sweeping views across the town and beautiful coastline. Running the full width of the rear is the splendid original glazed veranda and to the side an ornate balcony. There is ample parking via a private enclosed driveway for several vehicles.
