Full Description: Nestled on a quiet and charming street with uninterrupted views over a churchyard, this Grade II listed, Georgian home, built in 1821 for William Shelley, the beadle of St. Nicholas Church, offers an unparalleled blend of history and modern living. Boasting an enviable position and with its perfectly symmetrical brick-fronted façade, original leaded glass windows and pretty walled front garden, Mount Zion Place looks like the sort of house you’d expect to see adorning a chocolate box.
A pretty glazed and covered brick porch creates a welcoming entrance, and once through the front door elegant solid oak parquet flooring flows throughout the ground floor and into the main reception room. Designed for both entertaining and relaxation, the expansive L-shaped living space features a beamed ceiling, wall panelling, and zoned areas for formal dining and cozy seating by the wood-burning stove. The original brick hearth with an open fire in the kitchen creates a warm, inviting atmosphere—perfect for family gatherings or intimate dinner parties. The kitchen itself is a harmonious blend of contemporary style and practicality.
