THE PROPERTY
No.64 Southgate Street is believed to date back to circa 1640, being timber framed under predominantly tiled roofs, faced in brick around 1910 and part rebuilt/added to, again in the early 20th century, with the brick built and clay pantile dance hall to the rear, that was created by Greene King, with a passageway separate from the former pub, from the front. The property which is Grade II listed as being of historic and architectural interest, ceased trading as a public house in 1979 and is now a comfortable, spacious and versatile home that in the past has had permission granted to split the property into two separate dwellings.

The current accommodation comprises a storm porch and panelled main door giving side access from the gravelled drive into an entrance hall, which has a secondary glazed door with side screen window to the rear and leads to a cloakroom, with space and plumbing for a washer/dryer and has a glazed door leading through into a tiled wet room, with a wall mounted shower. A further glazed door leads from the hall into the drawing room, with a high ceiling with exposed beams and featuring a large secondary glazed window to the front, a fireplace with raised hearth, bressummer beam and an inset log burning stove, wall light points and a ‘secret door’ bookshelf unit that opens to the former front door hall, now used as a store cupboard. The kitchen/breakfast/living room is a wonderful space that enjoys French doors and windows to the rear garden and side parking area, breakfast and sitting areas and a bespoke framed kitchen with timber framed base units, hardwood work surfaces, inset sink unit, two ring electric hob, a Rayburn gas fired range cooker which provides for the central heating and hot water, and integrated appliances including a fridge and dishwasher. The room has exposed ceiling beams and a pantry store. The dining room has secondary glazed sash windows to the front, an inglenook fireplace with pamment tiled hearth, exposed floorboards and ceiling beams and double doors lead out into the dance hall passage, that has a door opening to the street. The study/snug also has double doors to the dance hall passage, secondary glazed sash windows to the front and a fireplace with inset coal effect gas fire. Continuing on the ground floor to the rear, there is a second kitchen/utility room off the passage, with a window to the side and a skylight window above, and features base and eye level units, timber worksurfaces with a stainless-steel sink unit, four ring electric hob with Bosch double oven below, space and plumbing for white goods and a door leads through to a 2nd ground floor shower room. Beyond this there is also a large music/games room (formerly the Dance Hall that was created by Green King) which provides superb scope for versatile family living with exposed floorboards, a semi-vaulted ceiling, a large log burning stove situated in front of the original fireplace, multiple sash windows overlooking the garden and ½ glazed double doors leading out to the rear garden. The cellar, accessed from the inner hall and from the former rear access through the still intact double doors from the garden, still feature the barrel roll rails down the cellar steps, and an arched opening leads into the ‘Barrel Room’ and through to a large storeroom, all with exposed brick and flint walls and the ‘Barrel Room’ having an exposed brick vaulted barrel ceiling.

On the first floor a split landing leads to four bedrooms with the master enjoying windows to the front and rear, a clawfoot freestanding rolltop bath, en-suite shower room with original feature fireplace, and there is also a walk-in dressing room. Bedrooms two and three are both double sized with exposed brick and bressummer beamed feature fireplaces and storage cupboards, and bedroom four, also a double sized room, is located to the rear and enjoys double doors opening to a balcony overlooking the rear garden. A modern shower/wet room and separate cloakroom serve the three family bedrooms and there is a walk-in airing cupboards housing the hot water cylinder.
