Grade II Listed farmhouse with potential holiday lets.

Description

Waterloo Place is a most attractive timber framed farmhouse essentially 17th century but believed to date back to the 1500s. The property, formerly a working farm, is set in grounds of about two acres.

Quintessential character features adorn the house with exposed beams and fireplaces to both the sitting and dining rooms with inset wood burning stoves.

With a combined square footage in excess of 7000 there is ample space for the family and in particular the generously proportioned sitting room makes a wonderful hub of the house.

The kitchen half open to the dining room perfectly combines modern requirements whilst still retaining the feel and character of the farmhouse. With bespoke wooden units underneath granite work surfaces over this provides a stylish as well as functional environment.

The family room off the kitchen provides a variety of alternative uses such as an ideal play room, gym or as a home office if required for working from home. With seven bedrooms
over three floors and a flexible layout the property must be seen to appreciate the scope.

Of particular note the property has been developed to include three potential holiday lets as well as a large indoor swimming pool complex complete with steam room and sauna making a fantastic option for a buyer looking into a lifestyle change to include an income or for a large family looking into multi-generational living.

Outside
The house is approached by a long gravelled tree lined drive leading to a large gravelled turning and parking area which
lies to the front of the house.

The grounds are mainly laid to lawn with several trees providing a screen to allow for privacy from the road. A large natural pond is in situ complete with raised decking above providing an attractive vantage point over the water.

A rear terraced courtyard well placed between the house and swimming pool complex allows for excellent outdoor entertaining and a high level of privacy.
