Selwood House comprises a substantial detached period residence being built circa 1901 of mainly solid brick walls under a new slate roof with a later addition circa 1922, having views over Wisbech Park from the front aspect. The property has many original and interesting features, including panelled internal doors, some with carved panels, moulded ceilings, skirting boards/architraves, sash and stained glass windows, window seats, fireplaces, high ceilings, picture rails and a carved staircase. The property is installed with gas-fired central heating and part double-glazing and is arranged on four floors. There are four reception rooms, five double bedrooms, one with dressing room and three bathrooms. The property would lend itself to an annexe, ie on the lower ground or second floors, subject to planning permission. Outside the property has a tandem garage, a walled front garden and an established rear garden, also being partly walled. The Agents recommend an early inspection to avoid disappointment.
