Each of the properties has its own distinct character. Careful consideration to the retention, restoration and enhancement of the original features has been combined with the desire to create individual residences that provide a contemporary living environment within this historic building.
The specialist restoration of the original sash windows, restoration and replacement of sections of decorative plasterwork and bespoke joinery to faithfully replicate door architraves and skirting boards has both retained and enhanced the grandeur of these prestigious residences.
The decorative scheme based on a Georgian and Regency colour palette has a surprisingly modern feel that unifies the period reception rooms with the contemporary high quality kitchens, bathrooms and en-suites. Tubular steel radiators combine 21st century manufacturing techniques with classic elegance, and brushed nickel electrical sockets and light switches sit comfortably with the decor and the mix of period style light fittings and recessed spots.
A gated entrance and a walled courtyard provide a secure living environment. The external private gardens, communal space and parking areas have been sympathetically landscaped retaining the cobbled driveway and York stone paving. Cast iron guttering, rainwater and soil pipes reinforce the period details of the exterior and emphasise the permanence of the buildings, which have evolved continually since the 14th century and are now beginning a new chapter in their history as six exclusive period residences.
