The Property

Set to the edge of the charming village of Willoughby Waterleys, The Old Hall is a beautiful house, listed Grade II, steeped in history and character. Sympathetically modernised by the current owners, the home blends timeless period features with many modern comforts including underfloor heating throughout the ground and first floors.

A welcoming entrance hall leads to a series of well-proportioned reception rooms, including a cosy sitting room with wood burning stove and beamed ceilings. The formal dining room offers an intimate space with easy access to the kitchen which has been thoughtfully designed with a bespoke suite of units with various integral appliances and range cooker. From here the useful utility room leads through to the rear hallway which provides access to the snug area, a warm nook which provides an ideal retreat for reading away from the main reception rooms. A guest cloakroom completes the ground floor.
To the first floor are four generously sized double bedrooms and two well appointed bathrooms, offering flexible and comfortable accommodation, each with particularly high ceilings and exposed timbers, and all having exceptional views of the gardens and surrounding countryside.

Outside

The very private and beautifully kept gardens, lie in front of the house, creating a very tranquil and sheltered space. Adorned with roses and an abundance of stocked borders it provides a very discreet and well-proportioned area to enjoy the south facing aspect with a principally walled perimeter. Specimen trees provide much interest throughout the seasons, and an attractive fishpond creates and focal point towards the head of the garden which has been thoughtfully landscaped to provide a wonderful seating and dining area beside the summer house which provides year-round use with power and lighting. A purpose-built garden office provides an ideal space for home working with additional secure storage. Approached from the village lane through two brick piers the gravel driveway is accessed and provides plenty of off-road parking, as does the rear driveway close by to the Garden Studio.
