61 Grantchester Street is constructed with brick elevations under a slate roof and is typical of the Victorian period, retaining many of its original features including cornicing, deep skirtings, fireplaces, panelled doors and sash windows. The present owners purchased the property in 2016 and have since carried out a full programme of extension and refurbishment to create a superb family home which combines all the charm and character of the original period building with the very best of modern contemporary living. This is particularly evident with the ground floor extension to the rear which now comprises a stunning open plan kitchen/dining room with bi-doors opening to the rear garden.
