47-49 Church Street until 2015 had been separate properties under a single ownership of many years standing. Upon death the properties were sold at Public Auction with both finding new owners. It was in 2016, with works well underway at No.47 the owners took the opportunity to acquire No. 49 from their fellow Auction buyer who himself had just completed his own programme of works next door. As a result the two properties have been combined and they really do work well together. Listed as being of Architectural and Historic Interest Grade II, the Georgian appearance of the front belies a timbered interior of great character. The owners have by bringing both cottages together formed a handsome front elevation with reception room spaces either side of the now central chimney stack. The long room across the rear of the ground floor is lovely and full of character being beamed and laid with pamment tiles. It links the sitting room to the dining room which contains kitchen space along with workstation through open studwork beyond. Upstairs the central staircase, retained from No.47, rises to a landing serving all four rooms and bathroom. The principle bedroom not only offers a walk-in closet alongside the chimney but also a room to the rear forming a perfect dressing room. Conveniently, this space connects back to the landing creating a circular flow. Outside, the two garden spaces now form a super backdrop for a town property and one worthy of featuring in the annual Eye Open Gardens weekend. A verandah and decking create a sheltered spot to sit and enjoy the prettily planted space where a Summerhouse acts as a bolt-hole from the cottage. Importantly, the driveway at the side leads to two car parking spaces provided to the property by the Title of No.41-43 Church Street.
