Situation

One of the most historic buildings in Totnes, The Merchants House is a mixed use property currently split between retail shop premises, two residential let apartments and offices. This historic house has been in the same ownership for 30 years and the owners have carefully preserved and managed the property within the Grade II* listing. Dating from 1404, it was originally a halled house and residence. Mayor Ryder lived there from 1404 to 1427. The halled house was later absorbed into a much larger property constructed around 1550 by a wealthy local merchant Thomas Martyn. Thomas was trading in wool and tin at the time within Europe and it was he who created the impressive property we see today with it's decorative plastered ceilings and elegant Oak panelling.

Accommodation

Fronting the High Street is the retail shop and to the side of the building a short flight of steps rise to a courtyard which leads to the front door of number 10. On the ground floor, and behind the shop, is a one bedroom apartment with original Oak panelling and original decorative lime plastered ceilings, which are known to be some of the oldest ceilings of this type in this country. Stairs from hallway rise to the first floor which is currently used as offices. The larger of the rooms, which gives a commanding view over the old High Street, contains many historic architectural features as does the slightly smaller, but no less impressive, room to the rear. A flight of stairs from the landing rises again to the second floor which is currently arranged as a slightly more modest two bedroom apartment. The property could also be used as a large single family residence, as originally existed for over 300 years, subject to planning consent.
