Superb Georgian country home with extensive equestrian facilities Savills proudly presents Waterloo House, a wonderful period home set out in two storeys over basement dating back to C. 1815. The property is in fine fettle and is situated on about 52 acres of grounds which create a strong sense of privacy and ample room for equestrian usage. Upon arrival, you are greeted by a recessed entrance with electric gates and a beautiful Neo Gothic gate lodge with castellated turret. The lodge has an open plan living/kitchen/dining room, shower room and two overhead rooms accessed via a spiral staircase. It is in good decorative order and utterly charming. The lodge enjoys its own outside space and parking area. Making your way up the gradually ascending driveway passing a c.500-year-old Oak tree, you are guided up the enchanting driveway which is bounded by a collection of post and rail paddocks and mature spruce pine trees. As Waterloo House comes into view, you get the sense that you are approaching a very special property. The driveway offers ample parking to the front or indeed via the rear archway to the first stable yard. Making your way up the limestone steps and stepping over the threshold via the solid wood door with overhead fanlight, you are greeted by a welcoming and hugely impressive reception area with 11' 2" high ceilings. Here, you will find original plasterwork and cornicing and the original pitch pine staircase which brings you to the first floor via its gradually ascending steps. The ground floor offers a beautiful drawing room with feature open fireplace, a captivating dining room that looks onto the grounds and down the driveway, a billiards room with adjoining a bar room, a relaxing TV room, a homely kitchen/breakfast room that looks onto the walled garden, large laundry room and a guest lavatory. Whilst upstairs offers 6 bedrooms, a bathroom and two shower rooms. An easily accessed basement which gains good natural light offers a gym, wine cellar, a living room, a service room and a WC. This area can be independently accessed allowing for this level to potentially be self-contained. Waterloo House has a choice of gardens and grounds to be explored and enjoyed. The main garden is located just off the kitchen/breakfast room and accessed via the adjoining TV room. This garden is bounded by original stone walls and mature planting, there is a calming water feature, a large, lush lawn and recently rebuilt greenhouse to be enjoyed. An enclosed deck offers an ideal outdoor dining area that overlooks the garden which is home to a variety of tree life such as fig, peach, bramley, cherry and apricot. A second walled garden is home to apple trees (eaters and cookers) estimated to be c. 100 years old. Making your way into the first stable yard you will find a series of large stables, tack room and a self-contained one-bedroom apartment. Making your way further into the yard you will find a second block of horse stables and an enclosed arena built in the 1990' s. This large indoor arena also provides a collection of stables. A second vehicular entrance can be found at the rear of the property and benefits from an electric gate. The property has been very well maintained and improved in its current ownership. It has benefited from works such as installation of 20 solar panels to generate hot water, attic insulation, installation of an EV charging point, re-roofing works of the main house and gate lodge and 5 G broadband aswell as the construction of the additional stables and indoor arena which can be separately accessed from a rear entrance.
