This original paneled door has been lovingly restored and repainted. Behind the façade of this magnificent three storey over basement level period residence lies a home of exceptional charm and character associated with its era. Internally, when you enter the hallway, you can see the love and attention that the current owners have invested their time in with restored and painted original turned spindle stairs with Wilton carpet on the stairs. The double drawing room to the right of the hallway features an original Kilkenny marble fireplace with original coving and fully operational shutters.
