King West are showing Rutland Terrace, an impressive Regency Period terraced house new to the market for £1,375,000.
The house?
9 Rutland Terrace is situated in the conservation area, towards the western edge of town and is one of the most iconic streets within Stamford. Once a manicured bowling green, Rutland Terrace was established in the 1830s and is a handsome display of Regency architecture.
On entering 9 Rutland Terrace through the broad front door, an expanse of beautiful, tiled flooring draws you into the property. The wide reception hall is flooded with natural light from the front door fan light and the original doorbell is a charming feature.
Turning to the left, the kitchen enjoys access to the rear courtyard through French doors abutted with original shutters. There is a central island and ample built-in cabinetry, with a granite work top. Multiple built-in Siemens appliances comprise a five-ring gas hob, multifunctional microwave, oven and warming drawer. There are also two Fisher & Pykel dishwasher drawers and an integrated fridge-freezer. The kitchen also has a Karndean floor in a wood effect, in keeping with the overall traditional aesthetic throughout the property, yet with a practical twist.
Following original stone steps, the lower ground floor boasts good head height throughout. True to the layout of the property as it was built, the rooms, once used as sculleries and coal stores, now take the form of three storage rooms with lighting and shelving; a gym/study area with built-in cupboard; two vaulted cellars - one of which has been designed specifically as a wine cellar; a utility-cum-shower room with the original washing tub to the corner, and lastly, a sitting room with built-in storage to the alcoves and steps rising to double doors that open onto the southerly facing, lower ground floor courtyard with further steps up to the front courtyard.
Rising to the first floor, the elegant spindle banister is a delightful display or craftsmanship with the sweeping curves of the original woodwork. Off a mid-landing is a shower room, the entrance to which was once where an arched window overlooked the courtyard. Now extended over the ground floor cloakroom, the fan light above the door to the shower room allows natural light onto the landing above.
To the first floor is the principal bedroom with built-in wardrobes, a feature fireplace and sash window overlooking the rear courtyard.
To the second floor there is a double bedroom overlooking the rear courtyard complete with built-in wardrobe and cabinet. A further two double bedrooms, one of which has a basin, lie to the front of the property with breathtaking views over the countryside and Stamford roofline. A family bathroom, with shower overhead and internal window allowing for natural light, completes the accommodation to this floor.
The garden?
South facing with views across the undulating meadows to the west and the famous Stamford roofline to the east, 9 Rutland Terrace is beautifully positioned, approximately half a mile walk to Stamford station and 5-10 minutes walk to either the meadows or the heart of Stamford.
The garden boasts a hot tub and private paved area, as well as garage space. Landscaped gardens can be found to the front of the property.
The area?
The historic market town of Stamford brags many shops, garden centres, churches, public houses and hotels, along with an indoor swimming pool, leisure centre and good medical facilities.
Not only benefiting from excellent primary and secondary schools near by, education in the town is exceptional, provided by the renowned Stamford Endowed Schools.
High speed trains from Peterborough (only 15 miles away) to London Kings Cross take approximately 46 minutes; ideal for the commuter. The A1 road is only 1 mile away. This development is less than 1 mile from Stamford Station.
