Property Details
Built in 1860, the Bank House is a two-storey semi-detached property believed to be built by Baron Thomas Salt MP as his private residence. Historically, the Bank House was a bank, schoolhouse, doctors' surgery and now, a restaurant. The commercial ground floor can be easily converted to a hair salon, estate agent or retail.
The front of the building has character with stone mullions around the ground and first-floor windows and a stone surround around the main front entrance. To the side of the property is a walled side entrance with gated access; this provides secondary access for the café/bar and primary access to the first floor.
The rear of the property is a small courtyard accessed via the side entrance or directly from the property. Currently, the courtyard is being used for additional seating for the restaurant. A steel staircase leads from the courtyard up to the first-floor accommodation.

The rear entrance is accessible directly from the bar/ service area and leads onto the courtyard. Radiators using a combi boiler system heat the ground floor.

The flats were designed and built to preserve the original Edwardian architectural features, wooden doors, cupboards picture rails and skirting, high-quality workmanship and pass building regulations and all other legal requirements.
