A unique opportunity to purchase one of the most recognised properties in Petersfield, with a rich local history and a location rarely available. Most recently known as the \"Flora Twort Gallery\" this character cottage faces St Peters church, right in the centre of Petersfield. The property will require converting back into a dwelling, from the existing gallery but the position is delightful and often described as an \"Oasis of calm\" right in the town centre. With accommodation set over two floors, there is great potential to create a character home.Flora Twort was a renowned local artist who settled in Petersfield in 1918 until her passing in 1985. She was an accomplished artist with many of her works shown at the Royal Academy of Arts, summer exhibitions as well a successful show at the Gieves Gallery in London. Her most famous works are probably the countless sketches of market scenes along with Taro Fair on Petersfield Heath. She co-founded the Petersfield Arts and Crafts Society in 1934 and further information about her can be found currently within the gallery and at Petersfield Museum.
