Built in 1883 as a pumping station and converted to residential use in 1971 by the current owners, The Old Pumphouse offers spacious, characterful accommodation with echoes of its industrial past.

The kitchen/dining room includes a practical range of units, electric oven and hob, stainless steel sink with twin drainers, and space for appliances. A separate utility room provides additional storage, sink, laundry plumbing, and houses the oil-fired boiler; next to this is the family bathroom with bath, separate shower, WC and basin.

Also on the ground floor is a study area with skylight and rear window offering flexible working space, two bedrooms: The main with built-in storage and en suite shower room; the second with dual-aspect windows and wardrobes.

The property sits within a gently elevated plot of just over 1 acre, mainly laid to lawn and bordered by an established belt of trees, offering a high degree of privacy and a natural, green outlook.

A private driveway leads to two adjoining single garages, both equipped with power and lighting. A UPVC summer house provides a light-filled space, ideal for hobbies, storage, or occasional entertaining.

An original underground reservoir (water chamber) lies beneath the lawn, with limited access via a small hatch by the conservatory. This could be converted to a more usable space, subject to obtaining the necessary consents.

In all approximately 1.03 acres. EPC: F.
