A THREE-BEDROOM property with a palatial Roman-style living room has been listed on the market for £300,000.
The terraced semi-Roman home in Christchurch, Dorset was listed on the market on Tuesday.
The large living room takes up over half of the downstairs and its main feature is a detailed ceiling painting that depicts angels flying and sitting on clouds.
The depiction is bordered with round gold and blue trim with various patterns.
A bust of a woman stands tall at the back of the room, while gold trimmed patterned chairs and couches are positioned next to the light blue walls.
There is a marble coffee table that sits on an old fashioned royal-looking carpet whilst a large gold rimmed mirror hangs on the back wall.
Breaking the Roman theme, there is a flat screen TV hung from the wall and a guitar amplifier resting on one of the chairs.
Leaving the lavish room, the rest of the house appears to be far more common.
The kitchen is of a good size and has a double glass door that leads to the garden.
Two of the three bedrooms are of good size and can comfortably accommodate double beds, while the third room could only fit a single bed.
The only bathroom in the property is situated upstairs and has a large bath and a separate shower.
In their listing on Rightmove, Goadsby, who are managing the property wrote: “A spacious terraced home situated in a popular area being just yards from Two Riversmeet Leisure Centre with its golf course.
“Christchurch town centre is also easily accessible.
“There is a covered entrance porch which has a storage cupboard, a door leads through to the Lounge.
“The Lounge is a good size with a front aspect window.
“A door leads through to the Kitchen/Breakfast Room which has ample space for a dining table whilst also having a good range of wall and floor cupboards with working surfaces over…
“There are 2 doubles, both having fitted cupboards and Bedroom 3 is currently used as an office.
“The Bathroom benefits from a corner bath with separate shower cubicle, pedestal wash hand basin and low level w.c.”
