Waterbridge Farm adderbury, oxFordshire, ox17 3nt<br />

description<br />

Waterbridge farmhouse lies in a superb location in the centre of the farm and is constructed from horton<br />

stone under a slate roof. A stone flag path leads to the porticoed front door. In turn, this leads into a central<br />

stone flagged hallway with access to the cellar and stairs to the first floor. Leading off from the hallway<br />

is a generous sized drawing room with an open stone hearth, exposed timber beams and dual aspect<br />

sash windows with separate access to the garden. The large dining with period features, including ceiling<br />

beams and tiled floor has access to the kitchen. Large farmhouse kitchen/breakfast room with flagstone<br />

floor, exposed timber beams, 4 oven oil fired AGA and traditional butlers bell system. Access to the rear<br />

garden. Adjoining the kitchen/breakfast room is the sitting room boasting a large ‘see through’ fireplace<br />

with a wood burning stove, built in bookshelves and exposed timber beams. The ground floor also comprises<br />

a good sized study; snooker room, cloakroom and laundry room. First floor accommodation consists of the<br />

Master suite which offers an adjoining dressing room and en suite bathroom again with original features<br />

including, exposed beams, sash windows and fireplace. Bedroom two is similar in style and offers sash<br />

windows, built in cupboards, window storage and fireplace. There are two further double bedrooms and<br />

two additional bathrooms on the first floor whilst bedroom five and six can be found on the second floor in<br />

the eaves of the main farmhouse, lit by velux windows, and roof lights. The house which extends over 4,600<br />

sq feet has enormous potential for further development and modernisation to create a wonderful family<br />

home. A formal lawned garden lies to the front and side of the property and is flanked by mature trees<br />

and shrubs with an adjoining slate barn. To the south, lies the former walled kitchen garden, laid to lawn<br />

and with the potential to be converted into a tennis court.<br />

Waterbridge Farm is a former dairy and arable farm. The current owner<br />

has developed the farm into a pay as you go 18 hole golf course. There<br />

is a significant potential to return the land to agricultural use and create a<br />

fantastic house standing in parkland.<br />

The land is all laid to grass, which has been attractively landscaped to form<br />

a golf course. The fairways are interspersed with mature copses and tree<br />

belts which could form attractive woodland with great sporting potential. Top<br />

Yard Barn is suitable for residential conversion subject to planning permission.<br />

The land is bordered by the rivers Swere, Cherwell and Sor all of which<br />

service the property with over 1,500m of 'course' fishing rights as well as<br />

the various lakes situated within the course. The majority of the land lies<br />

on gentle south facing slopes.<br />
