Waterloo House
Waterloo House is a substantial townhouse which dates back to the early 1700s. The accommodation is spacious with two beautifully proportioned reception rooms to the front of the house, each with large bay windows and exposed floorboards; the sitting room features an open fireplace within a decorative surround, one of the eight fireplaces within the property. The original tiling in the hallway is a beautiful feature which leads down to the kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with a range of units and incorporating a gas Aga, electric oven and gas hob. There are French doors to the terrace which also allow lots of natural light in to the room. The adjoining utility room, which has an incredibly useful larder, provides further space for appliances. The family room is a great space which can be used for a variety of purposes.
To the first floor there are four well-proportioned double bedrooms and a fifth single bedroom/study which are served by the spacious bathroom which features a roll top bath and a separate shower. There is a large attic which is split in to three sections and could be converted to create a second floor, subject to the necessary consents.


Situation
o Waterloo House is situated within the town of Welshpool which sits in the upper reaches of the Severn Valley. This picturesque market town, famous for its Light Railway, provides an excellent range of local amenities as well as a range of restaurants, local inns and cafés. There is also a livestock market. The town is surrounded by rolling hills and the glorious unspoilt countryside of mid-Wales, along with a number of places of interest including Powis Castle, Glansevern Hall Gardens and Ty Mawr Medieval Hall.
o Secondary schools in both the private and state sectors can be found at Welshpool, Shrewsbury and Oswestry.
o Road networks in the area are good, whilst a local rail service can be found at Welshpool and connects to intercity services at Shrewsbury, Birmingham, Chester and Hereford. International airports are located at Birmingham, Liverpool and Manchester.


Garden and outbuildings
Waterloo House is set back from the road and bordered by mature hedging. Accessed via a gated entrance on Wellington Crescent, there is large courtyard to the rear which provides ample parking along with a large outbuilding, originally the stable block. This would provide excellent ancillary accommodation subject to the necessary consents. This is currently used as a workshop and store - a further outbuilding provides a garden store and log/coal store. The front garden is laid to lawn and partly walled, with a number of mature trees along the borders. A south facing slate terrace provides an ideal seating area during the summer months whilst to the rear there is a further area of lawn interspersed with apple and pear trees.
