Description
The Merchants House, a Grade II* listed property in Totnes, has been a central part of the town's history for centuries. Dating back to 1404, it was originally the residence of the mayor of Totnes, and later became the home of a wealthy merchant who added the impressive decorative features that still exist today. The property currently consists of a retail shop, two residential apartments, and offices, with a mix of original and modern features. The ground floor apartment has original oak panelling and decorative plastered ceilings, while the first floor rooms, which were previously used as offices, retain many historic features. The second floor is currently arranged as a two-bedroom apartment, and permission has been granted to convert the top two floors into a large maisonette if desired. The property is freehold and connected to all mains services, making it an ideal opportunity for someone looking to own a piece of history in the heart of Totnes.
