A rare offering to the market 'Waterside' presents a superb opportunity to acquire this highly individual property built with entertaining in mind in 1950s. Situated on a 0.5 acre private plot nestled alongside the river with a 100ft waterside access and mooring rights. This substantial property is set on one level with the main house having three double bedrooms and an adjoining annex providing a fourth bedroom. There are two bathrooms and a further shower room. The living accommodation is impressive with a reception hallway leading to a substantial lounge, separate dining room, breakfast kitchen and utility room. Set within the annex is an entrance hall, fitted kitchen, large bathroom and bedroom/living room. There are two large garages all situated on a beautifully established and mature plot extending to 0.5 acres with wide river frontage and mooring up to 100ft. The garden itself is a real feature, with a leafy backdrop, large vegetable garden and summerhouse with thatched roof. The property is approached via a long private gated driveway and whilst the property has many features in its own right it also has immense scope for further potential for redevelopment or reconfiguration (subject to the incoming purchases requirements). Offered to the market with no upward chain, early viewing is strongly recommended to appreciate the setting and potential this property has to offer.
