Brown Heath Road, Waverton, CH3

Comment from Robert Reed of Gascoigne Halman

This lovely period residence is centrally situated within walking distance of the many wonderful amenities Waverton Village has to offer. It represents a rare opportunity in the current market and early viewing is encouraged.

Having remained in the same dedicated ownership for just under a quarter of a century, the property has been significantly and thoughtfully altered, extended, and improved during that time. Today, it stands as a first class period home that cleverly combines original period features with a tasteful and highly impressive contemporary specification. It is impressively and impeccably presented in every room.

The house enjoys a classic bay-fronted front elevation featuring decorative brickwork and a slate roof, while a gravel driveway to the front provides off road parking.

Upon entering, the internal accommodation opens with an elegant entrance hall complete with a traditional dado rail, beautiful tessellated flooring, a staircase rising to the first floor, and lovely doorways with wooden architraves.

The front reception room boasts a feature bay window and the room is a beautifully presented cozy retreat. Moving further into the ground floor, the layout transitions into a more open plan design where the kitchen takes centre stage. Comprehensively equipped, the kitchen features a range cooker as its focal point and flows seamlessly into a fantastic family living and dining area. This wonderful extended space is enhanced by solid oak flooring, a wood burning stove, three large side aspect windows and an additional three velux roof lights meaning the space is lovely and bright. The overall space provides the focal point for day to day living.

Directly off this main living area lies a highly versatile room at the back of the house. While most frequently utilised as a snug or home office, this room benefits from an adjacent wet room, allowing it to function regularly and comfortably as an appealing ground floor bedroom. There is a side door into the house leading straight into the wet room, so if you have a muddy dog, or muddy children, this is an ideal way of getting clean before entering the main accommodation! The ground floor accommodation is completed with a small laundry room.

Moving upstairs, the first floor provides a landing with a spindled balustrade leading to two large, impressive double bedrooms. The main family bathroom on this level is generously proportioned, containing both a separate shower enclosure and a standalone bath. Crowning the building on the second floor is a further double bedroom featuring both Velux and conventional windows and has its own en-suite shower room.

The outdoor space is equally impressive, particularly given its central village location. The garden is principally laid to lawn and includes a dedicated terrace area perfectly suitable for alfresco dining. It boasts a surprising level of maturity and a good sense of scale.

This property successfully blends historic charm with flexible, modern living spaces in an enviable village setting. A real gem and offered with no chain, this is a really welcome buying opportunity.
