First Floor
The first floor gives access to two reception rooms both generous in size and boasting a wealth of period features. The large sitting room to the front of the house has two floor to ceiling sash windows giving a glimpse of the intricate ironwork on the outside of the house, and a feature fireplace. Herringbone wooden flooring then flows seamlessly into the second reception room which is currently used as a music room.
Lower Ground Floor
The lower ground floor presents an exciting opportunity for further flexible living accommodation, including a cinema room, gym/bedroom, a kitchenette and a bathroom with walk in shower. This fantastic space can also be accessed by a separate entrance to the rear of the house creating the potential for a separate annex or apartment.
Accessed from the front of the lower ground floor are two subterranean offices in the converted coal bunkers which have been damp proofed and benefit from underfloor heating.
Second Floor
The beautiful principal suite on the second floor consists of a generous sized double bedroom, a large ensuite with bath and separate walk-in shower and a separate dressing room with built in wardrobes. If required, the dressing room could easily be converted back into a good-sized double bedroom.

Outside
The rear walled garden is beautifully presented with raised flower beds framing a large, paved area with sunken hot tub and a pergola with heat lamps which then leads onto a lawned area to the rear.

Location
Portland Street is in a highly sought-after area of north Leamington Spa. Leamington Spa is renowned for its beautiful regency townhouses and stucco villas, much of the charm of nineteenth-century planning can still be found in and around the town which is known as the Bath of the Midlands. A good array of shopping, bars, restaurants and excellent schooling, both state and private, are nearby.
Access to the Midland motorway network including M40 & M42 is close by via junctions 13 & 15. Trains into London Marylebone are from Leamington Spa Station and Birmingham International Airport is only ½ an hour away. In 2015 the historic town of Royal Leamington Spa was voted one of the Top 3 places to live in the UK by The Times newspaper and in 2017 the paper named Leamington the happiest place to live in the UK. In 2018 The Times named neighbouring County town Warwick the best place to live in the UK, so the area as a whole is highly desirable and sort after. Many people are drawn to the area by the excellent schools, shops, parks, and surrounding countryside.
After a visit to the town, it was granted a Royal prefix in 1838 by Queen Victoria and was renamed Royal Leamington Spa from Leamington Priors. The town is split by the river Leam which runs east to west through the town. It was on these banks that the Pump Rooms were built for people to bathe in salty spa water to heal their ailments. As a previous Britain in Bloom winner the town has several key parks including Jephson Gardens, Victoria Park, Royal Pump Room gardens, Mill gardens, The Dell and Newbold Comyn. The town is also known for its excellent schools. Within easy reach are state, grammar and private schools to suit most requirements including Warwick School, Kings High School for Girls, Arnold Lodge School and Kingsley School for Girls, The Croft Prep School, and Stratford Grammar School.
