Property description

A charming and highly unique period home located in the beautiful village of Whatley featuring versatile accommodation with scope for easy division.

ACCOMMODATION Enjoying a peaceful countryside position backing on to fields, this individual period home is located in the beautiful village or Whatley and could suit a wide range of potential buyers due to its flexible interior. The property could be used as one large rural residence or separated into pair of semi- detached homes. One would have two bedrooms and the other three, but both would be packed with character and lovely features. Due to the unusual nature of this charming home, Cooper & Tanner recommend a viewing to fully appreciate the different options available.

The ground floor features a conservatory to the side with a glass roof and lovely garden views. This leads to the main kitchen/dining room with access to both a rear sitting room/snug and utility space with ground floor shower room. The large kitchen then leads to the second fitted kitchen with a utility space to the side. The final room on the ground floor is the main drawing room with a lovely period fireplace and access to the front of the house. The first floor features five bedrooms and two bathrooms and could be easily separated with a partition wall addition on the first floor landing.

There are two stair cases leading to the ground floor making division totally feasible if required. The largest of the five bedrooms is of particular note with a large window to the side with superb countryside views.


OUTSIDE There is a large pebbled driveway parking space to the side of the property plus an additional driveway parking area to the front of the garage. The garage is particularly large and leads on to two additional workshop/storage areas with power and light. The gardens are a real feature of the property and back onto open fields. The main areas are laid to lawn and have a wide variety of mature trees, shrubs and flowers.
