Description
Created from a Grade-II listed building and retaining the large scale and grandeur of the original, #2 The Shrubbery is the signature home on this new luxury development.
Built in 1840 as a private residence and later known as the Lord Hill Hotel, this double-fronted townhouse is located on Abbey Foregate, SY2. Retaining the scale and grandeur of the original, the building has seen significant investment to the exterior and interior to become the most impressive, elegant home.
Enter via the original entrance into the grand, octagonal hallway. The elegant staircase is Grade-II listed and has been retained during the careful restoration. The contemporary tiled floor has under-floor heating.
Lead into the vast dining area, filled with natural light from the huge sash windows. French windows lead to the South-facing rear garden with its lawn and patio.
The Keller-range kitchen has a centre island with granite worktops and splashbacks. Fitted with a Quooker hot tap, triple Neff ovens (gas, combi microwave, steam), warming drawer, hob, dishwasher, tall fridge, tall freezer, and wine fridge.
Double doors lead to the elegant lounge with dual aspect sash windows, herringbone wood floor, stone fireplace and log-burning stove.
Across the hall is a convenient guest WC.
Upstairs is the large Master suite with bay window and Juliet balcony, formerly the Bridal Suite. Two further bedrooms, one with en-suite, a family bathroom with freestanding bath. Plus a laundry room and airing room.
On the lower level is a versatile space for an office, gym, movie or games room, and wine cellar.
Three private off-street parking spaces plus electric vehicle charging point.
Significant investment has been made in renovations of the property, alleviating all the risks and hidden expenses associated with a period property:
- new double-glazed wood sash windows
- new wall and roof insulation, new roof
- fully re-wired, re-plumbed, re-plastered, re-tiled
Several of the images use 'virtual staging' to illustrate how the room could be furnished.

I purchased a new property from SY Homes and I'm delighted with my new home. Built to a high standard, SY Homes certainly go the extra mile. With quality fittings and attention to detail at every level, they stand out from the competition. Due to the energy efficiency of the property, my bills have reduced considerably.
