3 bedroom character property

The Water Tower, originally built in the 19th century as stabling, was converted in the 1990's to creating a unique three-bedroom home bursting with character throughout, located at the edge of the village with a private garden, off-road parking, and garaging.

Accommodation - The ground floor in brief comprises a large entrance hall, dining kitchen, two reception rooms and a downstairs cloakroom. The spacious entrance hall has stairs rising to the first floor, access to the downstairs cloakroom, exposed brick walls and a wonderful flagstone floor that continues through to the dining kitchen. The dining kitchen itself has a great range of fitted units with ample space for appliances.

The dining room sits just off the kitchen and flows through double doors into the generously sized living room with a wooden floor, two large windows, and a log burning stove. All three rooms have French doors opening out to the garden, creating a wonderful flow from in to out throughout the entire ground floor.

The property comprises three double bedrooms arranged over the first and second floors. To the first floor, a large landing provides access to two double bedrooms, both with juliet balconies. Bedroom one sits at the front of the property with its own set of stairs rising to a mezzanine level, currently used as a study space. Bedroom two is at the rear of the property with a vaulted ceiling, exposed beams, and built-in wardrobes. The family bathroom serves the first-floor bedrooms and comprises a free-standing bath with shower over, wash hand basin and low flush lavatory. The third double bedroom is located on the second floor and is complemented by an ensuite shower room.

The property itself is a historic water tower and has been sympathetically converted into a unique home whilst retaining many of the period features associated with a building of this era.

Outside - The property is accessed via a shared driveway through recently installed metal gates that open onto a private block-paved driveway at the rear of the property. There are three brick-built outbuildings providing ample outdoor storage space. The garden wraps around two sides, mainly laid to lawn with hedged and fenced boundaries, mature borders and a large patio area offering the perfect space for outdoor entertaining.
