Roslyn House, High Street South, Shincliffe

Roslyn House and its neighbouring property, Roslyn Cottage were built circa 1918. Roslyn House is now being offered for sale independently and represents a beautiful double-fronted mid-terraced property.

To the rear of Roslyn House and separately owned on an independent title, is a courtyard which connects to the double-storey former butcher's preparation shop and behind this, a large strip of garden land extending and widening to the rear, creating a lovely family garden area. All of this land is now available for sale as one dwelling.

Vehicular access to the rear of Roslyn House is available over and through the land owned by the adjacent Roslyn Cottage. It leads through a flying freehold and archway in between Roslyn House and Roslyn Cottage and connects to the rear where there is a courtyard.

The attached site plan indicates two separate areas of land which are available for sale. They include the dwelling known as Roslyn House (hatched in black), the courtyard, outbuildings and garden area to the rear (hatched in blue), which is under a separate title but will be made available with the dwelling.

Roslyn House is a fine home and shows a great deal of potential for modernising and updating. At ground floor level, there are two principal reception rooms either side of the central hall and at the rear a kitchen/breakfast room, as well as a large walk-in pantry room with external store which could form a fourth ground floor reception area.

To the first floor, there are three substantial double bedrooms (there could be four and even potential for a conversion into the roof), as well as a large family bathroom/wc. The property benefits from gas central heating throughout.

To the rear of Roslyn House there is a former double-storey abattoir and butcher's preparation area, as well as an attached single-storey, former butcher's shop (owned separately by Roslyn Cottage).

To the rear of these outbuildings, the courtyard opens up to provide access into the family gardens which widens towards the rear of the plot, where it is south and west facing. The gardens are delightful and are well-presented with open lawns and mature hedge rows and trees.
