About this property

A unique single-storey, air conditioned residence, set within idyllic and private grounds of circa 1 acre. The Brewhouse is a wonderfully situated, substantial single-storey residence. Offering approx. 1,500 sq ft, of flexible and immaculate accommodation, the house is set on a most idyllic and established 1 acre plot. Formerly part of the 16th century 'Watermans End Farmhouse', The Brewhouse was sympathetically converted and well considered in its renovation 10 years ago for the current owner. The property now comprises an extensive single-storey residence amounting to circa 1,500 sq ft of high specification and flexible accommodation.
