Watery Lane, Ullenhall

Built in the late 1700s and as the name suggests, once being the local bakery to the village, this spectacular detached residence occupies a prominent position in the heart of Ullenhall. It is the first time the property has come to the open market in over 30 years and during that time, it has been an excellent family home, perfect for raising children and more recently, grandchildren. Throughout, the property combines both modern and traditional features, and to the ground floor, the accommodation comprises; reception hall, study, hobby/play room, family room, living room, breakfast kitchen, conservatory, utility room, and downstairs WC. On the first floor, there are five bedrooms, including a main bedroom with en-suite shower room, and 4-piece suite family bathroom. It further benefits from a good-sized private rear garden with lovely views over the surrounding trees and glorious countryside beyond, double garage with multi-purpose room above offering a variety of uses, and ample driveway parking to the front. The whole space totals an impressive 3,015 sq. ft., while the plot itself comes to some 0.21 acres. Although dating back to the Georgian era, the property is not listed and therefore, benefits from scope to easily add, alter or change (STPP).
