As the address suggests “The Old Timberyard” was a timber yard for the Waterstock Estate, once owned by the Ashurst family. The barn was originally built in 1849 as the carpenter’s workshop. The workshop and yard were both in use until the mid-1950’s

In 1985 the current owners built the new dwelling for them to reside in and retained the Barn as a super workshop.

This property is not only very rare but has huge potential to create any number of uses subject to planning.

The current accommodation to the main residence is entrance hall with stairs to first floor. Access to both the sitting room and kitchen/dining room.

The sitting room is of a good size and has a lovely open fire, perfect for the autumn/winter evenings. There is access from here to an attractive conservatory with double doors enjoying views of the private front garden. Special mention must be made of the traditional farmhouse kitchen/dining space. Light and spacious with a range of attractive shaker style units, complimented with granite worktops, a built-in oven, a dishwasher and an added bonus of an Everhot range. The honey combed ceiling beams really enhance the cosy feeling in this lovely space. A useful boot room, utility room and downstairs shower room completes the ground floor.

To the first floor: The principal bedroom has a range of built in wardrobes and is of a great size. There are two further double bedrooms and a large family bathroom.

Outside

The front garden is mainly laid to lawn with interspersed mature fruit trees. There is a large woodshed, and oodles of parking for many motor vehicles along with a substantial car barn.

The Barn is special, currently used as a workshop. Light and power are in situ and wow! this has so much potential.

(subject to planning).

The gardens to the rear are extensive. There is a large vegetable garden, large lawns, mature trees and various garden buildings including green house, summer house and wood store. This is so private and very beautiful.
