A beautiful historic family home built in 1740, with a Georgian front added later. This terraced property was previously owned by Miss Blackett -great grand daughter of Sir Edward Blackett and Lady Anne Blackett. Miss Blackett's brother was Admiral Blackett, Captain of the HMS Victory. Miss Blackett remained in the house throughout the wars despite severe bombing in the 2nd world war. A bomb fell just behind the house, damaging the back kitchen but fortunately leaving the main house intact.
At one point during its history, the house was joined with the house next door and was used as part of The Soldiers Institute Estd 1874 - benevolent society providing accommodation for military personnel. This organisation later became the YMCA.
Spread across 3 floors, the property boasts a large dining room, a snug, a contemporary kitchen and an outside patio. Upstairs you will find 2 children's bedrooms, a master bedroom with en-suite, a spare bedroom, a large living room, a family bathroom and a roof terrace off the bathroom.
