Stepping inside from the riverside pathway, you'll find this heart warming home embraces you with its charm from the very first moment. Each corner exudes a welcoming warmth, inviting you to relax and enjoy the unique character that defines this special place.
The lounge is a serene retreat, seamlessly extending onto a balcony that overlooks the rear garden. This inviting space offers a perfect spot to unwind while enjoying the tranquil garden views behind or river views in front.
Adjacent to the lounge, the sitting room features a charming bay sash window which frames picturesque views of the river. This cosy space is perfect for relaxing and taking in the serene waterside scenery.
Also located on this level is bedroom three, an ideal retreat for those who prefer the convenience of ground-level sleeping.
From the lounge, a staircase descends to the basement rooms where you'll uncover the dining room, utility room and kitchen.
This level exudes the property's heritage with its characterful features and the direct access to the garden adds a touch of magic to the space. It’s a charming and functional area that beautifully compliments the home’s historical charm.
On the first floor, you'll find two bedrooms and a bathroom. Both bedrooms offer breath taking views of the river, allowing you to wake up each day to the serene and scenic beauty of the water.
Lastly, on the second floor, accessible via a ladder, you'll find a carpeted area currently used for storage. This versatile space offers potential for additional uses and is perfect for keeping belongings neatly tucked away.
Adjoining the property is a former granary - an L-shaped period barn with exciting development potential, subject to obtaining the relevant planning permissions. The vendor had previously designed plans to transform this space into an underground car parking area, storeroom, and a staircase leading to first floor accommodation. This addition offers a fantastic opportunity to enhance the property's functionality and character.
Parking is available on the South side of the property with space for a couple of cars on the driveway.
The rear garden is fully enclosed by fencing and walls, ensuring privacy. It features a blanket of lawn, a rockery, herb garden and vibrant flower beds. Additionally, fruit bushes - including blackcurrants, redcurrants, white currants, raspberries and blackberries offer a seasonal bounty for you to enjoy. An outside tap is conveniently included for easy maintenance.
In summary, this is a unique and characterful waterfront property, perfect for buyers who value relaxation and nature. This setting offers a serene environment where you can enjoy the calming sights of the water whilst comfortably lounging in your favourite armchair.
